10%
Hello:
If you could be 10% BETTER than ANYBODY in the world, but only in ONE area, which would you choose, and why? I'm talking about stuff like intelligence, beauty, sexual prowess, fearlessness, strength, health, business acumen, height, morality, integrity, religious, and others...
I don't know.. In what way would you like to tower over your fellow human being, and what it would bring you.

Hello again,
Is this question so weird that NOBODY wants to answer? I thought LOTS of people would like to play. No, huh?

I want to answer, but there are too many choices.

Hello J:
I want to answer, but there are too many choices.
Wouldn't you like to be head and shoulders above every other nurse in the world?? You'd be famous. They'd name medical schools after you... You'd become a liberal..

I don't want any of it. People resent it. It draws attention. You are under a microscope. You are criticized.
You can't sunbathe without a photographer a mile away getting pictures.
You get charged with being the father of 50 babies.
People suddenly are your best friend, for your money.
If you start to go downhill, you are raked over the coals as a has been.
If you drink a power drink, you are thrown out for abusing drugs.
Memoirs surface that you didn't write.
The SCC follows your every stock move.
Your children either suffer from being in your famous shadow or they wish you were dead so they can have your money. Or both.
Even do-gooders who tower over others, Gandhi, the Dali Lama, and Mother Teresa had or have had their tribulations.

I agree with Cobra. I'm happy with who I am. Could I be a better person? Sure, but I certainly don't care to be in the public eye.

I'd love to answer Exy, but I have to agree with everyone else.
I've never wanted to be better than everyone. My hope is to be the best I can be with what I have. That doesn't mean that I want to be better than anyone, I'd just like to make myself proud by doing my best every single time.
Okay, that sounded really sappy, and I may puke just because I wrote it. :(

Uncountable wealth -- so I could reach into my pocket and pull out whatever money is needed to help someone.

Well considering I am better than most anyway, I guess that is good enough for me.

I'd like to be 10% richer than bill gates and not let anybody know not even my kids.
So I can live a normal life but pull out stacks whenever my family needs something

I think everyone is 10% better than someone else, in some category, somewhere. For instance, I know I'm (at least) 12.5% better (in the common courtesy dept) than my ***hole neighbor- who constantly makes a crap load of noise between 3 and 4 in the morning on week days.
