As much as I have a irrational fear of been dead I'd certainly sacrifice my own life to save family members I'm close to. Hell I'd have gave up my own life to save my older sisters if I could have. Sadly that's not how these things work.

Why did you leave out a "Yes, even for a stranger" option?

.. because not every option caters to you.

Winter, it's a yes that encompasses saving anyone and should have been an option.

Again nobody actually cares if there isn't a option just for you. What SHOULD be options is whatever the TC decides. Don't like it? Don't post.

I still have not voted since none of the options allow me to sacrifice for a stranger. Not even an other vote.

Winter will imply I'm making this about me but there are plenty of people willing to die for strangers. And if you aren't, shame on you.

I would give up a whole lot for a stranger or family member, but my life is the one thing I wouldn't give up. My survival instinct is just too strong, I MUST live.

I'd sacrifice my life for most of my family without hesitation. Depending on the circumstances, I'd do the same for complete strangers.

Anyone could give their life to save thousands of lives. Choose one of the guaranteed paths to wealth, study hard, work hard, make money, donate to charities that are effective.

Depends on the person and the situation.

I can't really vote family member, my child, or my spouse, because I refuse to get married, am never having kids, and I have family members who I'd watch burn to death in a fire and I wouldn't even piss on them to put it out.

But I'd be willing to risk or even sacrifice my life to save someone close to me. Family I actually care about, my significant other, very close friends, etc.

Circumstances change a lot, though. It's easier to accept the risk of possible death or injury to save someone than it is to accept a literal and inevitable sacrifice where I'm 100% going to die. Moreso if the death in question is going to be excruciatingly painful or harsh (and in converse, it would be easier to accept if it's going to be quick and painless). I'd also be a lot more likely to try and save someone who was in danger through no fault of their own, as opposed to someone who is only at risk due to their own stupidity or poor choices.

Like most hypotheticals people ask here, it's kind of impossible for me to answer without specific details. My personality and attitudes are way too nuanced to make sweeping generalizations for overly broad scenarios.

No, I would risk my life to attempt to save their life, but there's no way I'm throwing myself in to certain death even if it guaranteed saves them. In any zero-sum game, you're better off not wasting your energy.

I'd thought you would risk your life for your daddy man.

Ok... And? I've made multiple topics about sex one day. That was after I made multiple post about videos games, which was after multiple post about food... Sometimes, there's a theme or something on people's minds...

Also, this topic was made yesterday, and the spending topics were made today... So, it makes sense that this one has nothing to do with pricing...

but he's right, you're making this entirely about you, ok?

and its not very zen to shame people over a life or death decision. nor is it up to you or me to decide what constitutes being worth someone sacrificing their life for, ok?
