    For $15,000,000 USD would you allow...

    For $15,000,000 USD would you allow a robotics company to use your likeness for whatever they wanted?

    Some of the uses include billboards, magazines, Android skins, video software. However it would only be for 20 Years they have to stop or renegotiate for future use. They already know based on test analysis your image would be in high demand but the $15 million USD is their final offer. You also get some backend should the company make more than expected and they’ll give you 1% if everything over their projections for the next 20 Years.

    Keep in mind you have zero control of how they use your image would you do it even if it could end up everywhere including personal android skins.

    Would you do it?

    Think of something like David from Prometheus.


    Remember you get no control over it’s use once you’re paid it can be used for anything to anybody the company sees fit.

    Absolutely. Though it would be weird if every household suddenly had a personal android identical to me and no one believed I was the real one.

    Edit: This should be a movie or book or something, and if it isn't don't steal my idea pls.

    Of course, though unless something changed since I last looked into a mirror, I'm not sure why anyone would want to do that...

    Certainly, I could do a lot with that money and I wish daily that I'd win the lottery and gain it.

    The only downside I can think of is that the android using your image commits a crime and the real you ends up getting arrested.

    Regardless, id do it.

    So yes, they can use my face in ads campaigning for the Klan for that kind of money.
    Including androids think David or a Terminator skin model.

    Difficult yes but easy on the surface. You aren’t getting something for nothing here.

    Yes. Then I'd use a small amount of that to change my appearance slightly.

    Well they buy your image not actually you so you’re safe you’d just be famous. The problem could be what you’re associated with people might judge you good or bad based on association not of law but opinion. Some models have sold their images and felt it was the worst mistake of their lives.

    This reminds me of a joke I heard:
    A: Would you have sex with a gorilla for £10000?
    B: Of course. I need some time to get the money together though.

    My image? That gotta be a joke though. If that was a thing, I don't really mind. I have no fear on such.
    FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..
