    it also depends on your age... I found 25 dollars (in escudos, portuguese currancy) when I was about 7 and I freaked out and thought I was rich.

    it also depends in what country you're in. 1 Euro is more valuable to someone in Portugal then to someone in Sweeden or Denmark.

    and on why you'd be getting the money.

    If it's money for nothing (and chicks for free...) then i think $100... $200 would be a lot - more than that would be !!!!!!!! (and very weird...)

    If it's money for a job... what job? and then it's relative again.

    "a lot" can be seen as too much, or "plenty"...

    so it really does depend. I thing "3 Gs" and xx million - is loads. (+ than 'a lot') - so it depends on terminology.

    2 million for 2 homes and 3 million to invest in property that gives me an 'easy life' income of around 100g's pa for life and another few hundred g's for cars, boats and toys, so all in all, about 5 and a quarter mil pounds (not dollars) will do just fine thanks.

    It would depend on the person who is asking me. If Bill Gates said he would give me a lot of money, then I would say 5 million, if a middle class person - 50 000. I don't even have a job at the moment, so anything will do.

    tipo, abusing it... yes they'll give you a lot of money, but is that reason to ask for 50 000? in exchange for nothing?

    Show a person a way to earn money then they can make a living and get things they need. Give people money for nothing and they will throw it away on things they want most of the time. If you don't learn the value of money you will soon lose what you have. Many know the price of everything but the value of nothing.

    I would ask for 50 000 if they were middle class, but like that is ever going to happen. To me, any amount would do. lol. People don't just give away money like candy. So the question is an odd one.

    it would depend on a lot of things, such as (what has been said) the person you're asking, the situation they are in, and when you ask them, not to mention a whole lot more.

    I learn truth from my own life experiances not from others that came befor me, they teach me of their truths that happened to them from which I learn from.

    Hi:
    I would say "one dollar", but I would like you to keep repeating that question again and again and ...until the time I would tell you : If I were to give you some money, how much would be enough?
    And you would tell me "nothing", but keep repeating that question until you pass away! thanks,

    Since I don't know you 500 Euro would be a lot of money if you would give it to me.

    Can´t you give me things? Like houses, cars, islands and so on. I would have to pay so many taxes for money.

    Well, if someone would want to give me much money, I would say 300.000.000 $ would be a nice amount.

    I think my amount was £40,000,000,000.00 but that involved 5 years, some sophisticated equipment and a legal "grey" area.
