Hell yeah, prosthetics are not only getting much better, but much cheaper with technology like 3D printing.

How old am I in this scenario? 20 yr old me? No.
50 yr old me? Sure. I'm already pretty old anyway. I could retire rich and have an OT 10 do things for me. Plus I could afford a really nice prosthetic foot.

Sure, considering I could afford the best prosthetic. What a great excuse not to exercise.

What would the motivation be for someone paying $10 mil for my foot?
Bruh, just play the game!!!

My very 1st instinct was to laugh and say no chance. But after careful thought, I think i'd consider it. I'd be able to afford a state of the art prosthetic, and have my family set up nicely going forward.

Though to be honest, I'd say yes now, but if it came to actually doing it, I may chicken out last second.

A foot is a high price to pay to learn the common sense lesson that money can't buy happiness.

No thanks.

I would rather work and have 100% mobility. I don't want to hear about prosthetics.....I enjoy playing sports too much.

Can you file for disability without a foot? And get a handicapped parking pass?

Nope. Still do it.

$10 mil would set my family and a future generations up nicely.

With prosthetics these days, it would be selfish of me to turn down the money


I tend to agree, but what if you were offered $10 million per appendage? $20M to remove both of your legs from the knee down and $20M to remove both of your arms from the elbow down?

I'd need a lot more than that to replace my arms.

if you could freely exchange inches between your height and dick length for one time which would you take from and how much?



3" from my dick.

I'd be dickless, but at least I'd be comfortably over the minimum height for all of the rides in Disney World.

I'd fill my shoe full of newspaper, super glue it to the bottom of my jeans and keep on trucking for $10 mill.

Without a blink, even if prosthetics weren't much cheaper than that.

That money would build lots of wells in Africa and save many lives.
