How much to be an assassin?

[TheWorstPlayer]

There is no question that for $1MM I am hitting the bitch like there's no tomorrow. And I would very seriously consider doing it for less. Perhaps even half as much. Right now that money would make a big difference in my life and killing some stupid old hag won't.

I'll pay $5000 now, give me a year to get the rest together if you want more.

Ohh, you mean people get PAID for assasinations? Me and Fat Tony have got to have a talk.

So how much would someone have to pay you to be an assassin? I realize for most people the answer would probably be "there is no amount". But surely some must have their price. So lets hear it. We'll assume the following:

A mob boss comes up to you and is willing to pay you "x" dollars to commit a hit, using any weapon of choice, which he will kindly provide. The hit is not difficult. The target is an 80 year old woman who lives by herself in an isolated house. The house has no security alarm and she is not a gun owner. Bottom line, its a piece of cake. What is "x" dollars for you? Be honest.....

I've pondered this question many a time wishing to lead this lifestyle.

What's not to love? (Grosse Point Blank was a great movie!)

But there's a lil' verse in the Bible that says something to the effect of:

"what good is it if a man gains the whole world but loses his own soul?"

And *sigh* it's right. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

How many professional assassins do you know? Do these jobs even really exist? Come back from movie land.

How many supermodels do I know? Yet I enjoy talking about tiny flaws in their bodies and why I'd reject them. Realism is not a prerequisite for picking topics for OOT discussions.

I think there is a linear relationship between how much money would it take to kill someone, and how annoying/infuriating they are. It's a tough one for grannie because senior citizens, though slow and a danger behind the wheel, can still serve a purpose. As for a blanket price to kill someone, i would say whatever amount of money would allow me to fill a king sized bed with 100's to a height of around 10 inches, so i could then swim around in it saying "oh yes, kyles money, awesome". This price could easily be reduced if the mark in question:

-used the term "chillax"
-drove the speed limit in the fast lane
-watched the OC
-made horrible trades in online monopoly allowing the person clearly in last place to leap frog and win the game
-frequently displayed their "freestyle rap" skills while drunk and uninvited at my apartment
-preferred friends to seinfeld
-has ever said "the book was better" in response to the question, have you seen "x movie"
-has read a Harry potter book while they were an age >12
-was a female friend who frequently leans on you/holds your arm or hand/sits on your lap when you are talking to another girl, but wont take one for the team herself

If the person in question did any of those, and i was assured to get away with it, i would ask for gas money.. but not require it

I think I know someone that, by using your equation, you would actually OWE me money after you killed them.

A lot of it would depend on the job, but I think $50,000 is a good starting point.
