When I was an antsy for a Fortune 500 company in O&G, the dollar value placed on a worker 's life was $500k. I was told that it previously jumped from $250k to $1m but that proved to be burdensome.
If there was a way to make a job safer that had a 50% likelihood of saving 2 lives then it would only be approved if the extra cost was less than $500k.
If there were shortcuts that would save $2m then it would may still be approved even if it was estimated that 2 or 3 deaths would occur because of it.

I'd take the 100 without a doubt.

I know some thugs think a life is worth $20. Don't know them personally of course.

Strictly speaking, it's your yearly income times the number of years until you're 65.
