Board Game: Wealth or Celibacy

Submitted by Ghost of Hoke on

My friends and tackle this conundrum occasionally. Thought it might be fun to see peoples responses on here.

If you had to choose between wealth or celibacy which would you choose?

Parameters: 

Money- It can be whatever you want it to be. $100 million up to infinity. You have zero wants or desires when it comes to physical assets.

Celibacy-  You can talk to the opposite sex but it has to be stricly platonic. You are not allowed to get intimate, ever.

If you choose money you can not be with a woman, if you choose women you are jobless and broke. 

Which option do you choose?

FYI Ghost, the title of your game is a bit misleading. It implies that the dichotomy is that you can be either rich OR be celibate (but not both), when in fact I think you mean rich OR have a sex life (but not both). If I'm wrong and you mean the former, I'll take being rich over being celibate any day ;-)

I had a morphine drip once after having surgery.  I never understood junkies until that day.  I felt so good that lying in a puddle of my own vomit and piss, in public, would have been fine if that morphine was still hooked up to me.

Also I'm afraid of needles.

believe this would be "Bored Game."  Just saying, not being all grammar dude.

And the answer is clear - Television.

I agree -- should be bored.

Having said that, has there been a definitive post on favorite board/tabletop games of MGoBloggers?  I don't find one on the site search.

Guys acting rich who are actually very broke score all the time. Everything looks better in the dark.

The Choice is Wealth or a sex life.  In the choice of wealth or celibacy everyone take wealth.  Assuming you asked the correct question, you also left out the possibility that the askee is of the LGBT orientation, so for anyone in that group the choice for wealth is easy too.

 

So given your intended question, I'd take the money and go gay.

I could never be celibate. Plus, I think a lot of men - maybe most - would take the money. That'd leave a lot of women looking for love. Which means that while I'd be broke, I'd be covered in more pussy than a crazy lesbian cat lady.

As a card-carrying, sex-having person, I don't think my wife would appreciate me not being intimate.

Alternate universe, where I'm single, I probably choose the money. Women are great and all, but if I have no money I can't live somewhere where the women are anyway.
