A Million Dollars or Jennifer Aniston's Body?....hmmmmm
Published on January 29, 2008 By foreverserenity In Health & Medicine
If there was ever an easy question to respond to, this one is surely it! For me, being rich of course! Even in my quest to be fit, surely I would rather be rich than fit? Of course!


The answer to me is quite easy. Having the money to utilize quite freely without worrying about something else, I can hire a personal trainer, a chef, get new gym equipment, heck, get a gym!


Some people, who responded to a recent poll by Women’s Day and AOL Body, as reported by Dan Fleshner on msnbc.com’s AllDay Today’s Family Blog, think the same as I do!



The poll asked the question "Would you rather have a million dollars or Jennifer Aniston's body?"


6,905 women responded and 78 percent of them said they would take the money!


Wouldn’t you? Let’s face it, we all would utilize that Million Dollars to make our lives a lot healthier!


Although some readers were ardent with their views on why they would rather have the body, than the money!


I agree with some who have said that the money would be blown and gone in a year so that’s why they would take the body; and then there’s also truth in those who said that you can take the money and utilize it to make yourself better. To me, it just depends on how responsible and how driven an individual is. Nothing is going to make their lives better unless they do something about it!

The body would really not do me any good.

hahahahah I think I'd take the body.....I know, I know I'm in the minority here. But what else is new....lol.

I'm thinking like this. Money can't buy happiness really. But feeling fit and healthy is worth more than money can buy. Actually having lots of money brings lots of problems.

They say when you don't have health you don't have anything. Think about Howard Huges, the rich man of his day. He was miserable, definitely not healthy and died a recluse. He was anything but happy.

The money, totally.

Though if they offered me some time with Jennifer Aniston and her body...well, that's a tossup.

Honestly, that's way I think, too. I don't care about how much money I have, really, but I'd like to be as fit as possible...you know. Even though the body will age and go bad, I still think I'd take the body, because the money's gonna go bye bye, too.

Homeless people aren't very fit. Money can buy fitness...hire a personal trainer for your personal gym. You can be rich and fit.

You have a point!!


Think about Howard Huges, the rich man of his day. He was miserable, definitely not healthy and died a recluse. He was anything but happy.


Remember his problems were more psychological, and the endless cleansiness issues he had. That all boiled down to his childhood.


Even though the body will age and go bad, I still think I'd take the body, because the money's gonna go bye bye, too.


Yes, this is what some people say. I still think it's how you utilize it, and how you take care of yourself!

I agree with this!
