Poll...and Query

First the poll: [Poll #1592044]If, assuming that you had plenty of money and no urgent need to pay bills or put it in savings or the like, you answered the above questions differently, my query is simple:

Why?  

What factors led you to take one imaginary action or another in these situations?

Hmm...

There are some business models starting with that. Torn World lets you hand out credits one at a time (which you get for becoming a supporting member: most of your dollars you can thus pass to creators you like). My Poetry Fishbowl has poem sponsorships starting at $5 for the short ones, but you can also just put something into general donations -- it's not rare for me to get $1 or $2 donations and those are useful too. There are some systems where members pay a fee, and it gets automatically divided among the member websites they visit per month; alas, these are just getting started, so not great yet, but the concept is nifty.
