I only have 9.7 million, somebody hold the donkey while I go get some more money…  
Oh you mean **I** would get the money?  
Absolutely, what do I start sucking?

For the OP: HELL YES.

Random asides:

Phil: how much you wanna pay me to make sure Peta never sees this? _evil grin_

And DB - did we finally just find the amount of money it’d take for you to make out with me? 😉

Is it taxable? If so, how would it appear on the form?

For that kind of money, I’d have sex with any one or any thing, any gender, dead or alive. Without hesitation.

HEHEHEH, now that we have determined what type of people most of you are, would you do it for $10? I am just trying to negotiate price, now. 🙂

ME, I think I would go as low as $50,000 for another person. Significantly higher for an animal depending on what had to be done (Not sure what it would be for but it would be wlel over a million dollars for just intercourse, if it included something like a rimjob or anything else like that I would have to say no). Bisexual bestialists have no problem with this I would think. 😉

And we all know handy would do it. He’d do anybody. 😛 hehehe j/k but assuming from the taxable/nontaxable question his response would be yes.

HUGS!

I would think, myself, that the most painful animal with which to have relations wouldn’t be a goat but a porcupine . . . just imagine felching alone . . . better yet, don’t.

And I think, in response to cher3, that Fusaichi Pegasus has that kind of money, as do Lassie and Buck the Dog from Married with Children.

If I had the permission of “She Who Must Be Obeyed”, otherwise known as my girlfriend, I’d do it for a cool thousand. I don’t give a damn. It’s sex. So what?

…did you know Churchill once did this trick at a dinner party? Offfered like a million pounds for this obnoxious woman to sleep with him, and when she accepted, asked if she’d do it for 5. When she asked “What do you think I am?” He replied, “Madam, we have already established what you are. Now we are just dickering over price.”

We’re all whores, it’s just a matter of deciding on price.

For enough money, you can get most anyone to do most anything.

There are of course, exceptions to this rule, but I’ll leave it to one of our “Captains Obvious” to point this out.

Uh-huh.

How can you not respond to a thread like this??

No, I would not. Money really is not that important to me. (I am serious!!) For me to have sex with someone or something I have to be genuinely attracted to them. I might do something outside of normal parameters, but it would NOT be for money. It would be for pleasure.

Sex is such a beautiful and exciting thing. Why would you want to corrupt it my doing something you hate. It could wreck sex for you for a long time.

I wouldn’t do it for $10, but I’d do it for $1000. Anyone, anything. And it would help if I could look at the money while I did it.

For $50,000 and the event to never be known by anyone else, I’d just blindfold myself and ask for an orifice to be put in front of me. If you want to hear some people scream “Oh God! I could NEVER do THAT!!”, just ask how much it would cost to nail mother dearest or father…personally, I don’t think there’s an amount of money that would make up for my emotional trauma. Maybe that’s how Bill Gates really made his money…

Count me in with Dennison and Cynical. For 10 mil I’ll make it look FUN!!! No excuses, no explanations.

You said that so well, it was worth repeating. My sentiments exactly.

For 10 mil? All I can say is that I’d even be willing to take lessons before hand.

I think I have to say No.  
Its not like I dont need or want the 10 mil.  
I just would like to think I have more morals than that.  
Not that you all dont have morals, its just that yours are different that mine.  
But for 10 mil, I would fist a cow on national television. and thats about it.

$10 million dollars? I’ll do anything that leaves me alive to spend the money. Gay donkey sex is a definite yes. (not that I’m weird in any way, just greedy as hell :D)
