For me?

One million dollars before taxes:

No, because I know not only would I have to worry about paying the taxes on it, but any significant spending would also lead me to a higher standard of living which = higher cost of living and so I would need to keep a job to maintain the status quo.

One million dollars after taxes:

Probably , though it'd still be irresponsible and I'd end up going broke eventually, but I wouldn't have to worry about taxes in the equation.

 

[R3TRO]

Sure, I'd just talk about games on a message board instead of playing them…Wait..

 

[Crayon]

No. Ask me again when I'm desperate for a million dollars

 

[Yoshichan]

heck with geoffs shitty show atm, i feel like i could quit gaming for tree fiddy

 

[Banjo64]

Nah man.

I only really have a few hobbies to fall back on: gaming, reading, cinema.

£10m would be a discussion but £900k ain't shit.

 

[Bernardougf]

Ms new strategy... after buying in studios time to buy out gamers

P.s. after this gen I would easily quit gaming for that... is a fortune in my country

 

[HRK69]

.

 

[Deerock71]

Gaming's only holding on by a thread with me. I'd watch streamers game.

 

[R6Rider]

LMAO at $1M being a lot of money anymore.

 

[Arsic]

$5M after taxes sure. $1m? Nah.

Games keep my sanity.

 

[hemo memo]

I would travel, read, and do other things.

 

[BennyBlanco]

It would have to be generational wealth. Id be so fucking bored.

 

[bitbydeath]

No. You can't even buy a nice house for a million these days.

 

[R6Rider]

]Wrong thread lol

 

[saintjules]

 

[Poppinfresh]

Honestly, a million dollars isn't all that much money anymore. Hard work and smart investing can get you there well before retirement age.

 

[Beechos]

I would i hardly play enough as it is.

 

[Parazels]

I would travel, read, and do other things.

Imagine you enter a Boeing and every single passenger is playing on his Switch 2... except you!

 

[hemo memo]

Imagine you enter a Boeing and every single passenger is playing on his Switch 2... except you!

I would be devastated

 

[simpatico]

Yeah, sorry guys. I'd have fond memories. That's enough to move to Eastern Europe and start working my way up the post-Soviet despot dictator ladder.

 

[Mr Hyde]

RE9!!!!

 

[Plies]

RE9!!!!

So, your answer is yes?

 

[GoldenEye98]

lol yeah

 

[Closer]

Sure. I'd get bald, let beard grow, become full gym rat. Become huge like GigaBowser

 

[Jaguar Victory]

For one mil? No, fuck that. We get to around 5-10 mil I'm reconsidering.

 

[Mr Hyde]

So, your answer is yes?

Wrong thread!

And no I would never quit gaming

 

[Rush2112]

I would date all your moms for a million dollars.

 

[salva]

Hell yes, screw you losers

 

[Generic]

Sure, why not.

 

[Sooner]

Definitely not.

Now a billion is a different story

 

[Badlucktroll]

how bout 1 million dollars to SPEND ON GAMING

 

[skneogaf]

Yes, I'd just watch people play through the games I would have played. I'm 44 and don't want to work another second of my life so I think 1 million would allow me to not work again for my last 50 percent of life.

 

[ReBurn]

Probably

 

[calico]

That's tougher than it should be. I genuinely have no idea what I'd do with my free time if I couldn't play games.

 

[blacktout]

After that Summer Games Fest show, I would probably do it for seventeen bucks.

 

[Plies]

That's tougher than it should be. I genuinely have no idea what I'd do with my free time if I couldn't play games.

Travel.

 

[Bartski]

Of course not

 

[manzo]

In a fucking heartbeat. I think I have seen the best of gaming for a lifetime.

 

[AmuroChan]

Make that a billion and you got a deal.

 

[Topher]

Of course I would. Who do you think I am? Chittagong ?

 

[IDKFA]

Yes. Anyone offering?

 

[Stuart360]

Nope. I live on my own and gaming and gaming related stuff is a massive part of my life.

Now 100mil and then yeah because then i could follow my dream which was always to make movies.

 

[Fess]

Nah.
Why would I give up one of my biggest hobbies just for more money in the bank?
I don't need more money for the other hobbies and I don't need a new house or car etc. What would I solve with a million dollars in the bank?

 

[DaleinCalgary]

Lottery winnings aren't taxed in Canada

 

[Plies]

Yes. Anyone offering?

Alpha males like us make our own millions!

 

[Zannegan]

A million dollars would be a hell of a leg up for my family. Gaming is one of my favorite hobbies, but there are other ways to spend my time. I'd mostly miss co-op.

But, since no one is actually offering, agaming I shall go.

 

[hououinkyouma00]

Yeah, probably.

I'm assuming I'm still allowed to watch stuff though so I would just watch playthroughs.

 

[Pasta la Vista]

1 million fucking dollars is nothing these days.

 

[SILKYSMOOTH30FPS]

Yes. Gaming isn't my only hobby, and i could just watch stuff on youtube/twitch like a casual instead of playing. 1M is too much to say no to.

 

[Raven117]

Absolutely.

Invest it the day I get it. (Or dollar cost average over a set amount of time).

Retire quick.
