If my parents were not in the picture, I'd highly consider taking the $$. But At this point in my life, I'd say no to it! Definitely makes you think though, great question!!

It would be difficult to turn it down, but rebuilding one's life from the ground up, I simply don't have the energy for that.

It wouldn't be worth it, to lose the memories, the bond, the inside jokes with my loved ones. I'm broke, but I wouldn't trade the shared memories I have with people for any amount of money.

I'd take it. My mom would like me. I would like her. most of the rest of my family I'm sort of meh with anyways. My uncle's cool.

It's also motivated because I'd put the money towards good things. I'd start and run a foundation to rescue horses. And other shit. *nods*

i lean towards no, but wonder. most of the people i'm close with are older, so if it were the type of deal that never went away, i'd merely wait and take the money later. if it had to be accepted that moment, i'd probably say no.

Sorry I can give up my boyfriend and most my family but if my grandma and my kids would not remember me I would rather be poor and happy..

I wouldn't do it all. I don't want to lose all the friendships and how they came to be.

I'd refuse the money. I get really attached to people, and I don't think I could handle everyone forgetting about me. And money isn't really that important to me that I'd risk losing that. As long as I can get by.

NO WAY!!!

There is no money what could pay for losing all the good W/we have had with my Master, it would be fuckin heartbreaking, so I would definitely refuse it!!!

I would have to say NO. A lot of people I'm friends with are pretty closed off people and I would have to work really hard to regain their trust. Although I'll admit, there are a few people I wish would forget me.

Contributor: GONE! GONE!
There's a lot of people I would rather have forget me, but I wouldn't want certain people I'm close to forgetting me so no.

I believe that the most important "things" in my life are my loved ones; each of them are priceless ANS irreplaceable!

Not a chance in hell, I love my mother, boyfriend, and family/friends too much to lose them no matter how much money was offered.

I would never take the money. My relationships are too important to me. Besides we all need a few close relationships to function and be happy! Everybody needs somebody is my theory. It would just be too painful to lose what I already have. Money can't buy love and trust and only provides temporary happiness.

Never. I value people more than money, call me crazy but it's not worth it. Of course there are some things and people you wish you never did or gave the time of day but we all make mistakes and the people that matter forgive. I'd be lost without my family, some friends and not trying to sound cliche, but my best friend (my fiance).

Absolutely not-I'd rather be poor and have my family then be rich and not know them.

I would absolutely take the money. I have never been very close to my family so this would be a great way to escape from them without leaving them wondering where the hell I disappeared to.

At first I was going to say yes, just because I've always thought about moving away and starting a new life. But finding and developing the friendships I have now has taken me many difficult years, and no money is worth losing any of that. Although it has been very difficult being happy with what I have and where I am in my life, I still am extremely grateful to at least be loved and supported.

I would take the money because most of the people I have known I wish that I didn't.
