Pick 5 cryptocurrencies or publicly traded securities. Every day, at noon, you can see what the price of the crypto or security will be at noon the following day. You can change your 5 each year on January 1. |

Date: August 1st, 2025 4:24 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic So, which one would you pick?
In any event: (a) won't the same also be true under option 1; and (b) there will be nothing illegal about receiving the info under option 1 or 2, but they absolutely could try (and probably succeed) at getting a conviction on circumstantial evidence if your trades were sufficiently egregious(-seeming, to them). |

Date: August 1st, 2025 4:36 PM Author: electric chapel #1 seems less likely to draw attention, because you wouldn't be continuously making great trades on the same five names (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5757028&forum_id=2:#49149296) |

Date: August 1st, 2025 4:52 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic Fair. But, pick BTC and GOOG and your trades are one of millions. If you pick 1, good luck executing a sizable under the radar trade in Tony's Military Equipment Emporium Inc. the day before they get a big government contract or whatever.

Date: August 1st, 2025 4:49 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic You get a fully loaded, fully crewed, helium-filled, luxury, 1930's Zeppelin in great working order. A docking tower will be built near your house, and the Zeppelin can land anywhere there is enough space, like an airport or big field. It's free (for you) to operate it as much as you want.
Pick any ski mountain in the world. You will get an awesome mansion at or near the top of the mountain. All maintenance costs and taxes are included at no cost to you. |
|
Date: August 1st, 2025 5:09 PM Author: buff spectacular hissy fit university Is the Zeppelin prone to explosion in a massive hydrogen explosion or is it a safer designed rigid airship? I would take the mansion so long as there's a possibility of dying in a hydrogen explosion.
Edit: I guess if it's helium I'll take the airship |

Any time you stay in bed for 24 hours straight, you will receive $10,000 plus an additional $1,000 for every additional consecutive hour you're in bed. You must use your normal, irl, at-home bed. No making a special bed with a toilet attached or something like that. |

Date: August 1st, 2025 5:35 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic Even if you aren't pumo who played a little ball in college and almost joined the US Olympic rowing team, 50 miles a day isn't much. 16.7 hours of 20-minute miles and you're there.
Lots of people easily do 100 miles in a day. |

Date: August 1st, 2025 5:28 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic Pick any NFL team that didn't make the divisional round of the playoffs last year. Their head coach just left/got fired/died, and you will be named head coach. There will be some backstory, like you represented the ownership group in a transaction, and they liked the cut of your jib. The ownership group and entire front office will support you and have your back 100% for the next two seasons. They will not fire you for losing the locker room or on-field performance this season or next. You're on your own with them after that, and you're on your own starting day 1 in terms of winning over the players, coaching staff, fans, and media. You have a 5 year, $8M/year contract with no guarantees or buyouts, other than that the owners won't fire you in seasons 1 or 2, absent off-field issues.
You are as talented, knowledgeable, athletic, and experienced as the 65th best NFL QB. The Bucs just gave you a 3 year contract worth $3M per year, with $6M guaranteed.
You remain your height in both scenarios. |

Date: August 1st, 2025 5:44 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic You have a $1M per year legal/outside counsel budget. You can't give the money to yourself or spend it with friends or family. You can pay for representation for yourself, pay someone to do your legal work, found your own firm and get it staffed.
You have a $250,000 per year budget for a personal assistant, valet, butler, etc. Again, you can't hire yourself or friends or family. |
|
Date: August 1st, 2025 6:02 PM Author: awkward hyperventilating people who are hurt pit I'm not a lawyer but I'll take the 1M and build a law firm solely dedicated to the destruction of lawyers. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5757028&forum_id=2:#49149556) |
|
Date: August 1st, 2025 6:05 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic Interesting. In most states, a non-lawyer can't own or be an officer of a law firm. Unwinding those rules would further your goal of destroying lawyers. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5757028&forum_id=2:#49149564) |

Date: August 1st, 2025 6:11 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic You can, one, single time, pick any boat you want, and you'll get it for free. It must be a boat a billionaire could reasonably purchase. So, not an aircraft carrier or the Titanic or something. The boat will be delivered today to any reasonable location you select. One week of marina fees will be paid for. After that, it's on you. You can release your title to the boat at any time, but you can't sell it for any consideration or get a tax benefit for donating it.
You can, once every 2 years, pick any car you want, and you'll get it for free. But, every time you get a new car using this power, you must drive only that car for the next 3 months. The particular car must not have a special value because of it's history. E.g., you can get a 1968 Mustang. But you can't get the 1968 Mustang from Bullitt. |
|
Date: August 1st, 2025 6:20 PM Author: histrionic place of business affirmative action Tough one. I like the boat but fuel costs are insane, particularly on any boat extravagant enough to make the hypo fun. Plus after a certain size you'd need a crew, etc. I would moor it in front of my house.
For the car...I commute by ferry. I walk on and leave a car on each side of the water so this one fucks me pretty bad.
I guess the boat, but something simple like a master craft. I appreciate the exercise of walking through the hypo though. |

I suppose the hypo didn't preclude me from buying a boat and using it for a tour company or something. I'm goy my mind doesn't immediately work like that. |
|
Date: August 1st, 2025 7:24 PM Author: cowardly wonderful psychic That boat looks fun, but not particularly exciting or out of reach for a lot of UMC professionals. Want to go bigger than that?
Interesting point about chartering your boat. I thought about saying that you can't make money with it. |
