Today’s hypothetical
(An aside: I don’t think I’ve mentioned that I started coming up with these because I heard Jonathan Goldstein do an episode about them on his radio show WIRETAP. They came from Chuck Klosterman’s book Sex, Drugs and Cocoa Puffs, A Low Culture Manifesto (Now With a New Middle), and he claims he asks these questions to determine if he could really love someone. Here’s a list of them. Today’s question is adapted from one of his.)
You have won a prize. The prize has two options, and you can choose either (but not both). The first option is one year touring any continent on Earth (your choice) with a monthly tax-free stipend of $5,000. Additional funds can be added to the stipend to accommodate immediate family members, if necessary. The second option is ten minutes on the moon, a trip you must take alone.
Which do you choose?
