Indecent Proposal

My wife and I were talking about the movie and I asked her if she would do it for $ 1.000.000 She asked if I would want that. I said for $ 1.000.000 I would even hold her down....

Not quite the answer she was hoping for so to make her feel better I said for $ 1.000.000 (I'd rather have € 1.000.000 btw) she could hold me down too :evillaugh

Anyway would you agree to the Indecent Proposal?

Imagine you and your wife/husband in this scene!

i think Gaggles was hoping for this exact scene the night he met Natedog for craps, prob had his GF waiting at the airport.. poke::evillaugh

 

There is no question about it. i would make her do it for the money.

She screwed up by forming an emotional attachment to redford.

I never liked him before this movei but man did I like hom afterwards.

 

Definitely. And I would tickle his balls while he banged her for an extra million!

 

For $1,000,000 I'd sleep with Robert Redford. How bad could it be? It's Robert Redford after all. It's not like they're asking someone to sleep with Woody Harrelson! $1,000,000 will buy a lot of therapy.

 

Wow! I'm just speechless from the replies so far.

 

It's easy to say " I would (insert act here) for 1 million". Real world, few of us will ever know what we actually are or aren't capable of...

 

Much agreed, money is not worth it for us.

 

A guy was at a bar and went up to a woman and asked, "Would you sleep with me for a million dollars?"
She was taken aback, but regained her composure to answer, "Well, I guess for a million dollars I would."
The guy then said, "How about if I give you twenty bucks and we go screw?"
The girl slaps him and says in an incredulous tone, "What kind of woman do you take me for?!"
The man says, "We've already established that fact, now we are just haggling price."

 

Come on, Joe, there's some safe-on-the-internet bravura being displayed, the usual mine's-bigger machismo that is easy to predict in advance around here, but is it really this black or white? Plenty of people are in open relationships. Are they immoral or does it just become that if money changes hands? A good number of very well-meaning people think gambling is immoral, pure and simple. Yet you enjoy it and from what I know of you you are a good, grounded person. Is donating one's blood or a kidney a higher moral calling but donating one's sexuality a straight line to the eternal furnace?

Sex, trust, right, wrong, expediency, need ... lotta shit going on.

Really bad movie, btw.

 

I am too, but I think for other reasons: usually with hypothetical questions like this it is very easy for people to take the moral high road, to say "oh, I would never do that - for any amount of money!"


But another thought is: what is a million dollars?

Back in the early 1990s a million dollars was considered a lot of money, as a lifetime financial goal for many people... but the reality is that at the time of the movie Demi and Woody were both about 31 years old and while a million bucks is a goodly sum of money, it wouldn't be enough for them to retire on and live the life of luxury.

They would actually even be a little hard pressed to start a business on that kind of money - sure they could start up almost anything with that much money, but the kind of business they'd end up with would be one where they'd likely have to grind things out for the first 4-5 years before starting to turn any kind of decent profit.

The reality would probably be Woody sitting there with a big briefcase full of cash and Demi asking what they are going to do with it and Woody saying something like they would probably owe about half of it in taxes to the IRS and then use the balance to top up their retirement savings plan contributions and then with whats left they could buy some long term savings bonds and then maybe in 20 years, by about 2010 they can think of early retirement...

 

I'm not into open relationships or anything but you've got to admit 1M is a lot of money.
I wouldn't want my wife (or myself) to do it if we already had a million.

 

I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU AND YOUR WIFE beause...

I think you just may have ruined your relationship with your wife. You asked her if she would be willing to prostitute herself for 1M. That means that you may be willing to accept less money to become your wife's pimp.

Stop living in a stupid dream world of thinking that some man would pay a 1M
for a one night stand with your wife. Their are many beautiful young prostitues
in Vegas that will work for less with any man.

Why would any wealthy man want to pay 1M for your low income housewife who
buys her clothes at Wal-Mart. I am guessing.lol.

You have just told your wife that you see her as a money maker as a prostitute.

If a boyfriend or husband asked me that question I would have left him as fast as I could because he doesn't have any morals or values for my life. Lucy

 

Yikes! Didn't see that coming...

 

Mmmm - I think what Ken said was a bit more of a reasoned answer Lucy.

Different strokes etc, and I'm not sure that asking a hypothetical question is necessarily as fatal to a relationship as you suggest.

On Saturday night, after a day in the sun at a vineyard drinking wine and watching Pat Benatar/Bachman Turner, & America (all still pretty good btw), a crowd of us were discussing who in the world they could sleep with and still have a get out of jail free card from their spouse - eg my wife's "was" Patrick Swayze. All good fun and purely hypothetical - or at least it was until one of the guys suggested that his wife's sister was his one

 

A dead guy and a family member.

I tell you what, life in the Antipodes is NOT boring.

 

WTF?? Someone takes the internet a little to seriously.

 

Hey dfalk

Read again very clearly what Dpin300 said that he wouldn't consider it if
they already had 1 million. The guy means it. Read #12, on his final response.

He did consider it in his mind and mean't it when he asked his wife.

It looks to me like he may need money to live the high life-style. But 1Million
is nothing today in improving someone's life.

WTF! I got pissed off when he insulted his wife. Lucy

 

This place is fucking awesome!!

 

Morals get the boot at $25k and values start getting discounted starting around $30k.... once you get up to a $1M mark, theres nothing a lot of scotch can't fix (really really realy good scotch with my million dollars)... lol ... sorry
