That deal is only worth 2.25 million at the most. I wouldn't even think twice before making the deal.
The point where I'd start debating is maybe the 1.8-2.1 million range.

I would take the Bank's offer... here's why...
With the offer being $2.5 million dollars, I'd technically be risking $2 million dollars to win $1.5 million more. The risk is not worth the reward. I walk away with $2.5 million and leave $1.5 behind, rather than risking that $2 million to possible win $4.
Call me safe, call em calculated... I would be a safe dude with $2.5 million in the bank.

Hi! I have learned not to take risks anymore because of my previous experiences. In short, I'm not good at taking risks or gambling or games of chance, so I will just take the banker's offer and go for 'deal' even if there is a good statistical chance for me to win the much higher prize. How about you?

im also poor in gambling. though maybe if that was the case ... i'd try my luck and go for the money - since i still have the 500,000 and i started from nothing.

Or you could take whats being offered. Which happens to be more than 50% of the highest amount of money you could win in this situation. And if you only come out winning 500,000 then thats 20% of what you would have instantly won, if you would have chosen to make the deal.

mmmm good question!
well i cosider myself to be a bit of a dare devil,take chances in life.Your only ever going to be in that seat once so you should use it wisely.The wise decision is to walk away with the 2,500,00 at the end of the day it's prob more money than you'll ever have and it will set you up for life.But i like chasing the big money so i'm going to contradick myself and say i'd go for the 4,000,000.
at the end of the day you started with nothing and the least you could walk away with is 500'000 which is still a good amount of money dono if you could retire on i but you could have some fun.

i believe you have high tolerance in risk. they say that sometimes we need that in order to succeed.

Well, I'll take the banker's offer. I don't want to be a greedy person. It is not easy to become a contestant of deal or no deal, isn't it? So, I am going to be thankful for the banker's offer and being able to participate in the show.

it depends on the situation. if im in that just for the game ... and would not be needing the money ... then ill be ready to take the risk. however, in reality, maybe ill just settle for the 2.5M.

I think I would go for the 2,500,000. It's already a big amount of money and if I lose because my briefcase is 4,000,000 it won't be too much painful since i got 2,500,000
