Love or Money

             What would you do, if you were offered a million dollars? But in order to receive the money, there was one requirement. Would you accept the offer? Most people would say, "it would depend on the requirement". In the movie "Indecent Proposal" (based on novel by Jack Engelhard) David and Diana are offered a million dollars. But there was one catch; David would have to let his wife, spend one night with John. John is a billionaire, who has an interest in beautiful women. He wants to spend one night with Diana and nothing more. He wants to prove a point that anyone can be bought at the right price.
             David and Diana have the perfect marriage; they both have great careers. David is an architect and Diana is a realtor for David's construction firm. They're both are in the prime of the careers, but their lives are about to change. Everything is fine until the resection hits, the real estate market drops and the construction business is slow. David will get laid off his job and Diana hasn't sold a house in over a year. They began to go into debt, and their house is up for foreclosure. David and Diana are about fifty thousand in the hole.
             David then decides to ask his father for help and then bored five thousand dollars. Even though that wasn't enough to get them out of the hole, David comes up with a great idea. David thought of Las Vegas, a place to double their money. They both agree that they had nothing to loose anyway. They both agreed to go to Las Vegas and take a chance.
             David and Diana began to play black jack and poker. After several hours of winning, they only need about another twenty thousand dollars more. They continue to play and began to loose. They have about forty-one hundred dollars left of the five thousand that they began with. They decide to flip a coin, heads to continue to pay or tails to quit.
