Would you risk your life...

[DaveB]

Well at the moment, I'm overweight with high blood pressure and I drink too much, primarily because I sit in an office for 8 or more hours a day staring at a computer screen, so I guess the answer is yes

However you are in control of all those risk factors and in a position to do something about them. There is not much chance of someone walking up behind you and putting a bullet in you or trying to blow you up.

Risk is always relative. What looks risky to the BBC reporter who probably tulips himself getting the tube after 9pm is normal life for those chaps

Yeah, reporters aren't used to getting into risky situations at all. Those war correspondents with their show-off armoured vests.

I say


Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;

That's what Brian Blessed said before the England football World Cup matches last year. Wasted on those bunch of ******* *****.

They don't even risk a broken nail for 90k a week.

for £90k a year?

BBC News - Life in Iraq as seen by travellers at Baghdad airport

£90K a year to risk my life? Never!

£91K? Now you're talkin!

I've as much choice in the matter as someone who chooses to take a job in Iraq, yes, although I'm not in a position to do much about the sitting at a desk for 8 hours a day as the alternative is destitution.

Unless you live in London and use the transport network there

[Mich the Tester]

Yes I would risk your life for 90k. Where can I pick up the money?

The alphas pay the epsilons to do this work.

I have no want to degrade my social standing.
