There is a 20% chance that option 1 will occur in the next year 
 
I won't choose any. But if it is with no string attached. I will accept.
 

Is this the same question as.

  • a) Do you choose 1_million dollars after 5_years. {versus} 
  • b) Do you choose 100 thousand dollars after 5_years?

Is this really the ??? or am I missing something?

Yes, really - tonny is serious guy
 
Who said after 5 years read properly. If it were that way then everyone would take the 1m you didnt get the point. From this poll i want to expose one common mentality with traders but for now keep polling first.

tonny, I'm really.really.really not trying to fuss with you. If I understood your question then I wouldn't have asked for clarification. Unfortunately, your response did very little to explain what you mean. Therefore I'll try again.

  • Is the 1_million dollars guarantee to happen within the 5_years?
  • Is the 100_thousand dollars guarantee to happen within the 5_years?
