Star on a losing team, $45,000 awesome job, Single without ever getting married. 

 

I don't care about losing provided that I did my part, winning in an undeserved way just earns you hate. 

 

I've had bad jobs and awesome jobs. Luckily the awesome job also came with more pay, but ultimately its 40 hours a week of your life.

 

And being single doesn't mean not having friends, whereas an awful partner would be hell.

Worst player on a winning team. You learn more that way.

 

90k because we've already established that I love suffering.

 

Arranged marriage because I'm dangerously codependent.

I had to laugh at the marriage one!

A lifetime of isolation or an arranged marriage? I'm guessing all the guys chose arranged while the females (if any) chose isolation and a good book. :P

Worst Player on a Good Team - I chose this because it doesn't really matter if you're the worst of the best. It could be a basketball team full of Michael Jordan's with a single Kobe (I know I'll get arguments over who's better) because it still means you're a good player.

$90,000 Boring Job - Who cares if it's boring? Double the money means I have double the amount (or more) to spend outside of the job on things that are fulfilling to me.

Arranged Marriage - An arranged marriage generally comes with a bonus to the family. If you don't love the person, you can always break up and move on in life to find someone else.

Edit: Wow, solid gravedig. It just came up as a brand new post.

The other ones are kinda debatable, but the arranged marriage one is a no brainer. With an arranged marriage, there is still a chance that whoever it is might be kinda attractive. In the other alternative, you get nothing.

Star on the loosing, not like to be a burden

90K. I'd be willing to go less if I was working solely for myself. 

Arranged marriage. Some say there's love after marriage, no harm trying that out :P.

Worst player on a good team, because then you can learn from your other teammates and eventually you'll grow and get better.

No job needs to be boring if you can figure out how to make yourself interested in it. I always like to think about boring things as if they were a game. So I'll take the $90,000 one.

I'll say Arranged Marriage for the third one. It lets you skip the whole dating thing.
