Comment on Ask HN: Would you sell your future earnings for cash today?

Comments

Its interesting, but no - I wouldn't do it. I'd rather try to accomplish my goals without taking any money - especially feeling like I'm literally selling part of myself.

So if I offered you 1 million for 3% of your future earnings, you wouldn't at all be tempted? What if the 1 million is tax free, cash in your account today?

I didn't say I wouldn't be tempted - of course I'd be tempted. I just don't think I'd take it. 3% could be huge over my lifetime.
