Interesting to think about it in reverse - would you pay a million dollars to see your loved one again? It's one thing if you're giving up a million dollars that you wouldn't otherwise have, vs. taking out a mortgage on one day with a loved one. Don't know that I'd be able to do it.

True. If I had a million dollars already, it seems worthwhile to bring back a loved one if you can, but I guess the reason is because in the first question of having one or the other, you neither have one or the other, and are faced with choosing one, whereas if you have the million arlready, your fascination with it is already settled, and you might choose what you don't have at the moment...
