Daily #5

You accidentally discover an invention that can immediately help millions of people; but only if you act immediately. On the other hand, if you just wait three months, you can secure a patent and get rich. Which do you choose and why?

I would definitely act quickly and help all the people in need because I could become a great hero where everyone in the world would respect and look up to me. Also, it is way more important to do things for others than to be selfish and keep things to yourself and you should always put others before yourself in your daily life. I think it is always a great feeling to help others in my life, and I cannot imagine how great it would be to help millions of people and save them. This would probably be a decision where I would not have to think long and hard about because you always do what is right for the people when the time comes and do helpful things that benefit others. On the other hand, I could use the money from my device to do positive things for the world and help solve major conflicts that are occurring. Even though there are so much things I could buy and use for the good of the world if I became rich, God and my family would want me to do what is right for others and the world.
One thing that would influence my decision is how much time I have to act upon the situation. If I take too much time to make a decision, my chance to save millions will go down the drain and I would feel terrible if that happened. Something I could think about to help me is the importance and significance of the event. This opportunity usually never happens during a person’s lifetime, so I would consider myself pretty lucky to be given this huge chance to help the world in a big way. I would still probably get somewhat rich if I helped millions of people because I would more than likely be honored for my achievements and I would be rewarded somehow. My device would probably get a patent anyway because it would be so famous for helping millions of people and I would be able to use it again in the future without anyone stealing it. Making the choice to help the millions of people would definitely be the better end of the deal and it would help me become a better person mentally and physically.
