I thought about writing payable on the 31st, but if I had people would have suspected a trick of some sort.
For a million bucks and I get to have pets? Yeah I think I could do it. I could take the time to learn a language or new skills that I’ve always wanted, catch up on reading, movies, TV shows that I’ve missed. A year’s a long time but if the result is $1,000,000 then it would be worth it.
I would live in a house with Lobsang and his cats and totally ignore him for a year for $500,000 
By any chance, is Eccentric Billionaire looking for someone to not push the red button? I think I’m qualified for that one as well. 
But yeah, I’d take this job as well. Even when I’m done with my school and find a high paying job in my field, it would still take me years to make a million dollars.
I don’t know how online games work, soI’m having a little trouble answering the question. In World of Warcraft & such, are you actually communicating by voice with the other players?
Anyway, it doesn’t matter. Any online interaction which requires communication with another human being, either asychronous or realtime, is disallowed.
I’m pretty social (I’m out with friends at least 4-5 times per week), but this is still an easy “heck yes.” A year is nothing. The hard decision would be whether to stay a second year for another million.
I’m not so sure the skills for this job are transferable. Maybe it could go under the soft skills category in a resume.
But yeah, I forgot that this counted as a job since it sounded so relaxing. In any case, if I can make extra money from publishing a book afterwards, I’ll count it as a bonus.
Was thinking more along the lines of shooter type games were you are playing with other people but not actually talking to them.
Absolutely, after a consultation/warning to my boyfriend, my family and my friends. I have already made a list of the things I would want to do during that year. Where do I sign?
This setup is not dissimilar to both my current and previous careers. I’d have to talk with my spouse, but I suspect that as long as **Ms. Attack **gets access to the accounts while I’m in the hoosegow we’re good to go.
We don’t have to type the numbers 4 8 15 16 23 42 every 108 minutes do we?
I could maybe do that in shifts with ZipperJJ
The only rub for me is being limited to an acre of “outside space”. If the offer allowed access to uninhabited natural areas (mountains, beaches, etc) I’d go for it. Otherwise, probably not.
How much is an acre? roughly?
Is there a quad-bike course in the back yard?
An acre is 43,560 square feet. Call it a square with sides 200 feet long.
The rule of thumb is that an acre is about the size of an American football field and maybe roughly similar to a soccer field. It is big enough to do outdoor exercise including a limited amount of bike riding but you would have to go in loops. You could easily do things like gardening or kite flying and have lots of space left over. It is plenty of room to walk a pet around in if that is allowed. It is limiting but certainly not tiny at all.
Too easy…especially since that acre is gonna have a lot of weeds that need to be pulled.
I could do it for even half a Mil.
Yeah, my first thought on reading the title was, “Sounds great–but where would I get the million dollars?” 
There was a time during my single days when I might have been able to do this. But now that I’m married – no way. Even if only for my wife’s sake. She gets upset when I’m gone for a weeklong business trip.
Nope. I’d be suicidal, I suspect. I am quite shy, not a big talker and currently single, but I think the max I could do this for would be maybe one month for a million.
Hey, as long as I can have a volleyball with a face drawn on it; count me in.
