      First time I experienced this exact sentiment was years ago playing Dynasty Tactics.

      99% chance to hit?

      Realize devs forgot to include the decimal. 90.1% chance of exploding.

      You either have a 99% chance of cashing out big but a 1% chance of dying horribly. What body part you press it with doesn’t make a difference.

    Hmm, I’m a little surprised at how consistent the responses are, but I guess I shouldn’t be. I just know that if I did that spam until death and pass it all on to family thing that others here are about, well I wouldn’t trust my family to adequately handle big money after my death; they’d fuck it up, the greedy shitty ones would try and steal the will, keep some other family members from getting any; just anything to not just do what I wanted, and I wouldn’t be there to deal with it.

    But regardless, since I found out I was trans, 1% death chance is too big for me. I want to live and experience my life approximately closer to how it always should have been, even though I lost a couple decades getting there. Hell, just the million dollars, even if we say it’s somehow still taxed and the fed takes a bunch, could resolve all my debts, pay for all my trans surgeries, and I’d still have more to help my family without them just fucking it all up. But I still wouldn’t want to risk the death for that.

    Considering the extreme risk involved despite the low odds, I would not.
    It is tempting and the odds of hitting that 1% on the first press are low, so the chance of a payoff is very good, but on the other hand, you won’t get any money if you hit that 1% first try, so even leaving money for loved ones is out of the question there.
