Thread: 1 Million dollars or an extreme lucid ability?

yeah, but when you stop working, and all that money is gone, you will be right back where you were, same "boring" job( im lucky enough to be able to have a job i love in a field i love, and am smart enough to accomplish the goals i want.), and your lucid ability would be where ever it was. it would never be complete control.

plus, i wouldn't spend hardly any of the million if i got it. It's not that much money anymore, really...i would put most of it away for a long time, get that intrest, BABY!!! ( i would spend a little though...)

Very good lucid powers. Even if it wasn't inhuman like we are talking about right now, but 'just' really really good, I would like that.

Money can't buy rape, lucid dreaming can.

Haha, okay just joking. I was going to say love, ironically (you can't buy love they say), but you also can't Really LD love...

anyhow.

In theory, I could have been a millionaire by now. Or I could have had some great LD abilities, naturally gifted or not. I am just to lazy I guess, like 99.9% of the people out there.

(edit: good question)

But it can buy sex. You could buy a Russian and/or Asian woman, who you could literally have as a sex slave. You would not need to be a millionaire for that, though, since they only cost about 1000$.

Lots of people in my city has purchased Asian wifes, and I have heard how great it seems, especially considering their age. Most of them are old and can't get a good-looking woman another way. One I know of who's a teacher is like 50 years old has bought a Asian wife between 25-30. He had been bragging in my previous school how he was fucking her whenever he wanted, haha.

No, see, where I come from, not all woman are prostitues. What if you like a woman that happens (I know it's rare), is NOT fore sale :0

They are not prostitutes from here. They are transported from Russia or southeast Asia.

I have to disogree with you on this one, chemicals can form between you and products of your own mind, this can be called love, and through lucid dreaming it is, to my beleif possible to fall in love with a creation of your own mind(inspired by natural selection/gods (for the christians) creation of women ofcourse)



I'm glad alot of people seem to have diffrent opinions on this, I thought you'd all pick the money, but I truly beleive anything that can be achieved with 1 million dollars can be achieved through lucid dreaming, and I wanted to see how much you really valued lucid dreaming, and your reasons for your disicion.

I just have a secound question, would you (the people who chose lucid dreaming as an answer) change your mind if the price tag jumped to 1 billion dollars, or for you (the people who chose 1 million dollars) change your minds if any things were possible in shared dreams, such as your whole family experiencing it with you, and your friends

Like I said before, for a billion dollars I can see why you would choose the money. Still, I would pick the extreme lucid dreaming ability. You can't buy lucid dreams like these.

If shared dreaming would be/is possible, then I would pick an extreme lucid ability rather than the money. The reason being that I could influence other people through dreaming, and have lots of power in the dream realm.

I could easily get more money than a million bucks if shared dreaming was possible, and being badass at LDing. I would just plague some rich guy with nightmares until he gave me cash, or be deceptive and appear as Jesus to some Christians and tell them to give me money.

Hmm. Yes you are quite correct there. But can it ever be as satisfying? I do believe that the chemical-workings of love, and the feeling it accompanies, can be completely created within a dream. Yet, wouldn't there be a voice in your head saying: 'This isn't like the real thing'. I mean, a girl without free-will, doesn't sound as fun.

Still, okay, you can get pretty close to what you want in real life with LDing. On some areas you can go there, and beyond.

Hmm... I would go for the..... hmm... 1 billion. I am sorry. I could BUY the patent on lucid dreaming with that kind of money : )

Yeah good point, that might be true, but what if you could get your subconscous to create a person based on a set personality, know that would be cool, I think it's possible, though someday i'll find out, as of know, I don't control alot of DC's

lucid dreaming ability...

I'd choose the lucid dreaming ability. If you could spend years in your personal dream world and only 1 second passes in the real world, you could live forever in your own mind.

This would essentially give you eternal life if you so choose.

I changed my mind, rather have lucid abilities.

I'll take the money. If invested wisely, it could mean a lifetime of financial stability for generations.

Now if it were shared dreams I could control 100%, that would be a much different story. I already know what I would do if I could.

I would take the money. I prefer to live than dream

Very interesting...at first glance of the thread name I figured I'd take the lucid. But thinking about it I revised my plan...

I'd take the money...invest and use my free time to get extremely good at lucid dreaming. I feel that would be the best of both worlds.

Well, I need the million 1st if you know what i mean, haha. That would be an amazing gift, but it would depend on how much money I would still have. I would still need to make a living. But this is just a hypothetical (?) question, so if you are asking if that ability is WORTH a million? Hmm, that's a really tough one. Hopefully someday i can become close to that without any pay, just practice.

Because the lucid dreams in real life would only last one second, I would without thinking about it take the instant LD ability. Just think about the endless possibilities!

It's strange how nobody thinks that lucid dreaming could get boring. It only seems so delightful until it becomes habitual, right? Then it's like writing a very long book or watching a very long movie. You can make it different, but it's still the same, and time will come when you've had enough of it and want something new. Any toy becomes boring once you've played too much with it. Lucid dreaming can lose its value very soon.
It's strange, too, that everybody has thought of money as something only for themselves. Why not invest it in something really useful or give it to people who starve.
I'd take a million and find ways to use it well.

I like cheese.

That's a tough decision. But you can do whatever you want in a lucid dream, that's like every night you could fly or have any other super power that most people only wish they could have or experience. I rather enjoy the feeling of flying, I would take that over a million dollars any day

you would honestly get bored with flying or being able to breathe under water or doing any of that stuff? I mean people say they would if they were doing it their whole lives, but I've been snowboarding my whole life and I'm not bored with it, why would anything else you could do in a lucid dream be any different?
