I would save the people that have a lot of money, and make them pay me. I would also save any attractive women. I would do this because i could reproduce with attractive women, and not ugo's. And i would get lots of money and not have to work ever again because i would be rich. The people that are drowning i would tell them that they should have made a good living so they could survive by paying me a ton of money. i beleive that survival is based on money and attraction.

I question whether taking the rich people and having them pay you in a situation like this? Would the rich people even be carrying their money and if they didn't have money on them and they were rich would you still take them into your boat? In an overall situation I don't think money would sole this problem.

Agreed with Rachael. In an instance of life or death, everyone would lie about their money, age, their abilities, anything to get on board. These people are stranded, and I'm sure money would have no value on a deserted island, for example. These people want life, food, water-- money isn't worth anything really. Survival is based on money in a sense in SOME situations/areas of our country, but not in this scenario.
