? would you ever Sellout to get to the Top

Everything changes when money is involved. had someone told you they would give you $1 million to vote for John McCain instead of Barack Obama in the past election you would have been all over it. (my McCain readers can flip that scenario around. i can't forget my lovable losers) Yes we should definitely have some pride and integrity for ourselves, but we also need food and safety for our families. so what are you gonna tell someone who's not used to having shit? you gonna tell him to stay broke and save face. last time i checked being in the good graces of other people can't pay your rent or your car note.. I try to work my ass off on a daily basis to avoid situations like the one above. people can only take advantage of you if your lacking something they can provide you. and selling out isn't only used in situations like turning on your own people, it exists anytime your going completely against your core beliefs and values. so for someone in porn to sell their body for money doesn't actually define selling out because their belief system compliments the action. that's ok for them.. but that analogy brings up a great point because your value system and what you place importance on may not be the same as someone else.. You'll find out so much about someone when they have the opportunity to advance in life. everybody wants to be a superstar, but not many people are willing to work for it.. So before answering the title question answer this one for me.. If offered total financial security, would you ditch your core values and personal integrity?... what do you think?
