How much would someone have to pay you to kill someone (random person)?

[Richard]

Think long and very carefully!

Well?  What is your price?  I believe that everyone has a price.  I'll admit, even I have a price.  I cannot in good faith say I won't kill someone for $100 billion.  Or $1 billion, or even $100 million.

[Jake]

Hmm, I would like to say that I wouldn't for anything, but I'm human. There are certainly things I'd be willing to kill someone for, but money isn't one of them.  I voted 100 billion because once again, I'm human, and you never know.

[Frodo]

ANYONE who is seriously willing to kill someone for money alone (and not for his country, family, or other redeeming values) degrades himself in the process, making himself less than human.  i question whether he is even worth killing.     

[Nation]

About $10 million.

[nini2287]

I don't think I'd do it, but once you start talking about 10 mil...

[A18]

No way I'd murder an innocent person for any amount of money, especially since I'm already blessed to be part of a wealthy family.

[TomC]

No amount. Even if it were a really bad person.

[Alcon]

I do not really think I am capable of murder.

[falling apart like the ashes of American flags]

I would never kill an innocent person.

[opebo]

Obviously it depends on the risk, and the lack of money suffered by the potential hit man.  If I felt certain that I would not get caught, then very little.  Ten grand certainly.  If I were destitute I'd do it for $100K, even given some risk, so that's how I voted.  Of course if you were already rich why bother?

[John Dibble]

I would stand for my principles - they are worth more money than anyone could possibly offer.

[Nym90]

No amount.

[dazzleman]

No amount.

Me too.

[Erc]

At least $100m to consider it.  But I still probably wouldn't do it for any amount of money.

[Joe Kakistocracy]

I would never kill an innocent person.

I expect if somebody wanted them dead they probably wouldn't exactly be 'innocent'.

Anyway, it pains me to admit that I would probably seriously consider $10 million for doing it.  Maybe less if I think they deserve it.

Yeah I know, I'm going to hell.

[J. J.]

I would depend on the person and the situation.  I can come up with some examples where I would never do it, and some where I'd do it for free.

[Inverted Things]

I would be willing to kill someone for $1,000,000.

I would need time to carefully plan it, do some research on the target, and make damned sure I don't get caught. In addition, I'd want money to hire a good lawyer in the unlikely event I did get caught. $1,000,000 would likely be sufficient.

A man once asked a female co-worker if she would have sex with someone she didn't know for
$1 million.  She thought about it for a while and then said yes for a million dollars she would. He then asked her if she would do it for $100,000. She thought for a while again and then said yes.
He then asked if she would do it for $10,000. She was more reluctant this time but finally answered yes again.
Then he asked her if she would do it for ten bucks. This time she said; "hey what kind of a girl do you think I am?"
He replied; "we've already established that. Now we're just haggling over the price."

The point is once you say yes you are a murderer.

Its good to see so many respondents said no- not at any price.

Good one.

What the hell do you mean, I'm a murderer? I've never killed anyone in my life. Getting paid to kill someone would make me an assassin or mercenary.

Now the woman in your story above may be a prostitute, but let's say for th sake of argument that she's never had sex before. She's still a virgin, despite having her price. Similarly, I'm not a murderer, despite having my price.

[Peter]

Somebody I don't know of: Wouldn't do it.

Somebody I know of and vaguely believe deserves it: Probably not too high.

Then of course there are the people I'd die to protect from an assasin.

My answer is no. I would not kill an innocent person for any amount of money. If your answer is yes, you might wonder about the legality of advertising your services on the internet.

No, you're not guilty of a crime until you commit it.  And of those that said "no," probably half are lying.

[Cashcow]

I have more than enough money, and I'm not that much of an asshole.
