No, not a chance.

With money, you can buy new people.

Absolutely, if they have no financial worries their quality of life would be significantly better than a family that had to grind working the 9-5 and sees their kids for 3 hours a night and an hour before school.


Link? Most studies I've seen indicate what common sense tells you: two parent households that live within their means fare better than single parent households across the income spectrum.

If I could bring my sister and my niece, yes. If not, then no. No way I could voluntarily walk away from those two.

Enough money buys new friends and family so sure.

I don’t have any kids or a wife though

The thought of never seeing my wife and daughter again kills me and is making me want to bawl.

Funny thing is that sometimes I feel like my wife and daughter wouldn't miss me that much.

My wife would trade up and my daughter would miss me for around 10 to 15 minutes. Then she'd go back to her i-devices.

I hate feeling this way.

Not a chance in hell. My wife and kids make life worth living. Without them you might as well start digging my grave.

Knowing that your family would be set financially without you is there an amount of money you could be paid to walk away from everyone in your life and start over in a new place?


It would take an extreme scenario...

Like knowing my family would be dead if I stayed somewhere or brought them with me.

Money wouldnt matter at that point though.

Average Arkansas Man answer.

Ironically that’s usually only a singular person (sister/niece) in Arkansas.

Whatever it would take. 1 million? 100 million? 1 billion? 100 billion?

I think a lot of people would have to consider it for the wealth of Bezos or Gates.

It it was before I got married and had kids, probably.
