Would you work for free on a project that you knew could save the world?

Of course. Why wouldn’t I? Why wouldn’t anyone?

I’d be honored. I might ask for free coffee or a sandwich once every now and then though.

Yep. Of course.

If I was offered that, I would feel like I was the most important person on this planet. I mean, saving the world! Not only am I doing something back to the earth for all it has provided, but would also cut back costs (due to oil) by a huge margin? Why of course I’d do it for free! (Food and drink factors are of course, exempted from my previous sentence.)

No! Only because a project that significant and of that magnitude would surely be worth gazillions of dollars in revenue generated by that development and I would like a piece of that action if my talents would further that goal.

Now if it was something like stopping a terrorist from detonating a nuke in my home town or steering a missile to stop a meteor from obliterating my world…*HECK YEAH!!!

@Cruiser, you’ve changed my mind. My price: A lifetime’s worth of cash!

By the way, I intend to spend in my life…and when I mean spend, I mean spend!

If,I win the Nobel Peace Prize for it, can I accept that?

I want recognition, somehow, someway, even some money under the table, would be nice.

@belakyre You work cheap! Let me negotiate your contract!!

@Cruiser Depends what you want to negotiate!

My fee is 10% that alone would be a lifetime’s worth of cash in a deal that would wean the world from dependency on oil!! Trust me when I say you’d be set!!

Yes – in a heartbeat as long as I had enough money elsewhere for the basic necessities.

Sure. I work for free on much less important projects.

“could save the world?”

If it WOULD I am all in.

COULD, most of us are already doing that.

For sure!

Yes, unless there was a moral conflict.
