Would you do it?

wihtout a doubt i would let my wife sleep with another guy for a million bucks.. thats enough to buy decent house, two nice cars, and have enough money in the bank to live comfortably in the future.. who cares if my wife bones some dude.. as long as she still loves me..

I think there's probably no better way to test the relationship. I mean, if a couple can survive through an obvious indiscretion, then they can probably survive through anything.

As for the good looking millionaire aspect of the movie, it does make the scenario a little unreal, but it makes the husband's dilemna more obvious. What if she's thinking of the other man while she makes love to her husband? Such a thought could eventually crush a lesser man.

On the other hand, if the relationship doesn't go well, he can always get divorced and keep half. I have been pretty down about broken up relationships before, but a half a mil might've made me forget some of that misery and the lingering thought of some skeez in bed with the wife...

Finally, it may be worth noting that there are websites dedicated to couples who are made a similar offer, except the couple only gets $1000 and the girl gets filmed while her significant other has to watch. If so many folks will whore themselves out for $1000, it's probably pretty safe to assume that there'd be a few more folks willing to do it for $1 million....as one poster put it "for a million dollars I'd let my wife have sex with a gorilla"

'nuff said

I think I'd sleep with Robert Redford just because if I was your wife I couldn't stand being married to a person with such a small grasp of grammer and the english language.

"I suspect that those on this thread who spout off on morals etc are actually very wealthy people who don't have to struggle for a living and hence, have no idea what that's like."

Depends. If they were born into money then possibly. But self-made people remember what it was like when they were struggling and know firsthand the power of money and what it can accomplish. I would argue that most of those people are college kids who are "in love" with their boyfriend/girlfriend and have no concept yet of how hard it is in the real world.

Now I'm not married, so perhaps my opinions are seen by married people as somewhat naive as well. But I look at it from the following perspective: At my current above-average salary, I have to work 17 and a half years to make a million dollars (pre-tax!). That being said, would I accept Redford's indecent proposal? Every day of the week and twice on Sunday. And it's not even for what that money could do for me, this decision is made too easy by the idea of what that money could pay for for my future child: food, clothing, shelter, little league, summer camp, and a college education which has become pretty darn pricey nowadays.

To those of you who are a firm "no" on this, and even to those of you saying you wouldn't go through with it for a million but you would for 5 or 10 million, when your children ask you why they need to take out student loans to pay for college, you go ahead and tell them the story of how you were once offered a million dollars for one night of infidelity but threw it away because you were just too much "in love."

sweetgal89 hasn't commented in a long time....I'd be interested to know if her opinion is the same at 25 y/o as it was at 16.

Dude, I'd let my wife *beep* a gorilla for a million dollars!!!!
