   I'm not sure I agree with that, assuming both parties had a full understanding   
   of what they were consenting to. Consider two options...   
      
   1. If you decline my offer, you might get fifteen million dollars and a life   
   of relative luxury doing what you love to do. Or you might get nothing and   
   work in retail the rest of your life. No way to predict, or even know the   
   percentages. Either way, I    
   get nothing.   
      
   2. If you accept my offer, you definitely get five million dollars and the   
   life of relative luxury doing what you love. I get ten million dollars and an   
   even more luxurious life.   
      
   I'm thinking I accept the offer, and since I know exactly what my options are,   
   I don't feel the least bit ripped off about it. (Obviously these numbers   
   aren't accurate, it's just a thought exercise.)
