I haven't seen this posted here yet. Would be interesting to see what people's priorities would be:

Edit: image didn't work out, will explain via text + linky.

You have to spend 10 years in a basement in exchange for 10 million $, are provided basic utilities and can ask for more stuff up to a certain limit (or more by lowering your pay-off).

Exact prices for everything are here:

My answer:

Food:
- prison food (fine for sustenance, won't make me fat) 1pt
- fruits and fruit juice (I can make booze with it) 2pts

Hygiene:
- hygiene products (you have a toilet but no one said free tp) 3pts
- medical care from New Delhi, 2pts
- skylight (dat Vitamin D) 2pts

Occupation:
- garden (no need for a gym + I can grow anything I want :smokin: ) 2pts
- computer, 4pts
- internet (no buying... but youtube, project gutenberg and gmail are free) 14pts

How about you?

    I looked for a smaller one online... couldn't find one. Someone with slightly more ambition, can download it, resize it, and re-upload it somewhere.

    Okay, this worked. It seems to be a different version than the one posted above, so...

    Maybe with a working image, this will have more replies.

    I would half my payout at the start to get the 5 extra points, so I have a total of 35.

    Food: (2pts)
    - Microwave with microwavable meals (2pts) Steamed vegetables, Sara Lee's deserts, Hormel makes some amazing microwavable met dinners.

    Health: (5pts)
    - New Delhi Medical care (2pts) no point in having all that money if I die before the time.
    - Hygiene products and a Jacuzzi bathtub (3pts) Mainly for the Hygiene products I love to stay clean, the Jacuzzi is just a bonus.

    Occupation: (25pts)
    - Computer (4pts) Will be my entertainment and work tool.
    - Internet (14pts) My access to the world, since I will be cutoff
    - Stock Market (7pts) I will use my knowledge to make that money work for me, and being locked up, it will be nothing but research.


    I'll have 3 extra points which supposedly can be collected at the end of the 10 years for 3 millions, not sure if I would get that 3 million up front since I choose to Trade stock or if I will get it after, either way it doesn't make that much of a difference.
