Would you give away the car? - on survivor last week


PrairieMom wrote: I was watching survivor last week when Cindy won the car and was given the choice to give new cars to 4 other people or keep one for her self. She decided to keep the car.
It made me wonder if I would do the same thing.
I decided that I would feel way to guilty about not giving to 4 other people so I would never be able to enjoy my new car. I would give them away.
what would you do?

mckayleesmom replied: Ok...I don't watch so I need to clarify first before my answer...


She can

A....keep 1 car and that is it...no other cars are given away

B ...keep 1 car and give away 3 others

MommyToAshley replied: Tough call. My first thought would be to give them away, but not out of guilt. I would do it for strategic reasons. I think it would be hard to vote someone off that just gave you a car. But, then again, someone might not take you to the final two if they win because they will know that you had given people on the jury a car. I don't think I could play that game... I would go nuts trying to figure everyone out. wacko.gif laugh.gif

MommyToAshley replied:
No, she could:
a. keep the car she won (no others given away)
b. give up the car for herself, but the other four people would each get a car.

PrairieMom replied:
Okay, so say its not a game. You won them in a lottery or something. I still think I would have to give the cars away, even to complete strangers.

CantWait replied: You're not gaurenteed a win, therefore I would have kept the car also.

C&K*s Mommie replied: hmmmm.. total strangers that you have come to know only on the show that could turn around and boot you out?? I would take the car, and run! dry.gif

Family or friends on the hand, would get the cars, without hesitation, from me. blush.gif

Boys r us replied: uhhhhh...KEEP THE CAR!

PrairieMom replied: I was the only one at work who would give the cars away too. They said i was way to soft hearted. I must have a termanal case of " people Pleaser-itis! " blink.gif
I would still give them away. tongue.gif

kimberley replied: i would have kept the car too. survivor is a game and has nothing to do with being nice to others. it's about surviving to the end for the million bucks. either way, strategically, her decision could have bit her in the butt so why not get something out of it at least.

if i won the lotto, i would buy everyone but me a car *if* dh got one cuz i'd need a ride lol.

My2Beauties replied: I'd keep the car. People on that show feel no guilt or remorse, regardless of whether you gave them the car or not, they could still boot you out the door the next week, they could care less, it's all about the money in the end.

mom21kid2dogs replied: Never saw the show but if I won a car in the lottery I'd likely sell it. I don't need a car.

3xsthefun replied: I would probably keep the car.

holley79 replied: Well I need a new car so I would have to keep it. rolleyes.gif If it was in a lottery or something I would still have to keep the car, unless there was a lot of money and I could afford to buy everyone a new car, myself included. blush.gif
