Kill someone seemingly unimportant? $100 Billion USD, tax free. No one will ever know.
Stats:
1. For the sake of example, I'm gonna resort to a stereotype and say that it's a 30 year old male tribesman from a remote jungle.
2. The $100 billion USD is tax-free, wired to your account. Since this is a fantasy, no one will question your newly granted wealth (such as police/IRS/government). It's all yours to enjoy with no strings attached.
3. No one will EVER find out about the dead tribesman. There's no one else involved in the operation. Just your conscious and the dead tribesman.
4. You have to kill the guy yourself. Don't worry, we'll go easy on you. You don't have hand-strangle him or stab him with a knife. We'll give you a gun and all you have to do is pull the trigger at his head.
5. There are billions of ppl that die each day at poverty stricken countries. He is just one of them. Think of all the good will you can do with the $100 Bill you're just rewarded. Think of all the LIVES you can SAVE with that money...
[EDIT]
This really borders on the quantification of life. It's also a nice way to surface the Ethics 101. $100 billion dollars at a death of one man OR saving thousands (and more) with the money? Logics dictate the you'd be a FOOL to not to kill the man.
[EDIT2]
I would actually say yes. I'd probably be traumatized for the rest of my life but think of all the good you can do. Actually let's think REVERSE- think of all the boys/girls/men that could die of poverty because you didn't get $100 billion dollars. You're short sighted if you don't kill him for $100 Billion dollars. It all boils down to- kill 1 man to save thousands....? which?
