Really not seeing the appeal for flight here. The novelty would definitely wear off and the ideas itt to get rich off it are pretty weak. “Mr. Bezos plz I’m trying to spend time with my family”

I think I could spend the rest of my life swooping around happily like a bird.

You can fly at mach 9 (which is more than 3km a second) and don't need special protective stuff though, just rip things apart with shockwaves and fly away.

I’m assuming being able to fly comes with some ability to also have whatever brain adaptions that allow you to actually handle flying that fast and not splatting into a building or something. I think I’d take the billion because even if I flew at some leisurely bird speed looking at waterfalls or nature’s majestic wonders, I feel like having that ability puts me in the crosshairs of some religious nut who thinks I’m the antichrist and shoots me down with birdshot. I’m sure I can get away enough times but all they have to do is get lucky once. With the billion I can make some mostly philanthropic organization or something so you guys don’t guillotine me for being a billionaire, but also skim enough revenue from the top to allow me to live on some respectful passive income. In summation I’d take neither and cast reduce balls on op.

If I could fly and travel Mach 9, I would become the worlds largest weapon of mass destruction. The shockwave from flying by anything ground level at mach 9 would be like a mini atom bomb going off. I could make billions extorting the world to not use my flight powers for destructive purposes. Check and Mate.

Why wouldn't you pick the billion dollars? 0,8 seconds after someone sees you flying, every government in the world will try to kidnap and study/kill you.

You could make a shitload of money flying anyway, companies would pay you to put their logo on your flying outfit, Nikie and Adidas would fight over you for the shoes you wear while you're flying on to the Jimmy Kimmel set, you'd probably become the most famous person in the world.

That sounds terrible. Imagine not being able to go anywhere without someone recognizing you, wanting to talk to you, wanting an autograph, pestering you because they want you to help them.

You can’t always be moving at Mach 9! If you had a superpower like that you’d be murdered or captured very quickly. Better to just be rich.

mach 9 is your max speed not your all the time speed. you would only be able to activate it relatively risk free in the stratosphere. if you try to use it on the ground you would turn into red mist quickly. using it as a shockeave weapon would not be practical. taking the billion dollars is gonna be the betrer way if you want to gently caress people up or over.

I’d take the billion bucks, buy a bunch of modspace trailers, connexes, and decking and make a housing complex for people in their late 20’s and early 30’s who are just fuckin’ tired. Each trailer would have 4 bedrooms, a bathroom, and a giant living area and there’d be communal stuff like a barcade, cafeteria, and movie screening building. Definitely a pool too. Low/no cost to residents but you’ve gotta seem fun to hang out with and sufficiently burnt out to get in. It’s been my “if I hit lotto” idea for like a year now.

I was thinking mostly of using the power of flight for good, like taking pictures, repairing stuff in space. Like 90% of the time!Alien Sex Manual posted:I would make more than a billion dollars from the sex cult I would subsequently found after learning to fly like Superman. Gotta do something with that last ten percent.

If you can fly you can scoop up nerds like Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg or that Bezos Dweep or Evan Snapchat & bobby bebop snapchat and threaten to drop them from the clouds into a spike factory until they give u all their batcoins and make you the ultimate billionaire. I choose flight. Please deliver my flight soon op. Update with tracking # at yr earliest convenience. Thanks & Best regards, kntkfr
