Would you rather have $10 billion or the ability to stop time.

This is a choice between being almost a god vs being obscenely rich. Being a god might get pretty boring. Games get less fun after awhile when you're on god mode so I'll take the money.
 
The cash. I can't think of a lot of stuff I'd use the time thing for right off hand; I can think of plenty I'd do with 10b.
 
If everything is frozen, no mechanical engine would work, meaning you are effectively stuck to walking/biking distance... starting to sound pretty crap the more that I think about it.

How would noise work? what we see as light are moving photons... No part of this actually works...

You're right, and it's complicating things. We need some kind of rule where the things touched will still function, or the ability to will things or individuals in and out of this frozen mode.
 
If we are talking actually freezing time and thus the entire universe ceases to move along, then give me the $10 billion.

You would age faster than everyone, you couldn't drink water as it would not flow. No space without time, so if time freezes the fabric of the physical world itself does too.

Now, if we are talking I can move so fast time itself and everything else relative to me looks like it stopped... that I can work with.
 
I'll take the $10 Billion, thanks.

Although having $10 Billion appear in my bank account without paying any tax on it is more difficult to believe than the ability to stop time.

You wake up tomorrow and gotta choose one :

A clean $10 billion in your bank account. No taxes, no fees or anything of that sort or the ability to stop time.

You will be able to move in stopped time while others are frozen. if you unfreeze time you will go back to the the place where you stopped time.

10 bil

Unless you a special forces operator or something stopping time really only seems useful to do some shady shit like steal peep and rape.

If you could stop time, you would have access to unlimited money as you could just Omar Little all the drug dealers money.

Then if you saw a bus about to hit a child, you just go Hiro and move him

Plenty good you could do if you stopped time as long as objects you can touch can move with you. Like a car or money.
 
Why the hell would you want to stop time? What good does that do.

Gimme money

To be a hero you'd still have to be in the right place right time and heroing would become a full time job. It's like carrying a gun. You might save everyone's life one day but it's more than likely just gonna be a weight you lug around that makes your hip hurt on long car rides and never gets drawn and fired.


F stealing money, that's still work and involves having to track down where piles of cash are and putting yourself at risk while doing recon. The interest on your 10 bil every year is also probably way higher than the money you could steal with your x men time stop powers. I also think this is probably only fun once or twice and then youd be like why didn't I just take the cash then I wouldnt have to go to trap houses in Detroit and Baltimore to steal money that was probably in some crackheads ass crack 2 hours ago and will make you smell like you got dipped in the bog of eternal stench forever the second you touch it.

The money ....you'd be able to do more for yourself and others with that money.
 
Easy, stop time. I would then go on a campaign telling people I was godly psychic and could predict the future, say a bunch of crazy stuff, stop time and go do those things so people would think I could, and then make billions off of corporations asking me for predictions.

Best of both worlds.
