How Much Money Would It Take For You to Give Up Facebook, Give Up Hot Showers, or Eat a Cockroach?

 

How much money would it take for you to do something nasty you didn't want to do?

 

 

eBay just ran a survey where they asked 1,000 people how much it would take to do a bunch of tough, disgusting, or dangerous things.  Here are the average answers for the 20 best ones . . .

 

 

1.  Give up Facebook for a year . . . $1,000.

 

2.  Give up Netflix for a year . . . $10,000.

 

3.  Give up your smart phone for a year . . . $32,500.

 

4.  Give up caffeine for a year . . . $55,000.
