Step on up and spin the giant wheel of diseases! It has a list of diseases and medical conditions (taken from mayo clinic website) that has 1,151 entries. It ranges from innocuous things like mosquito bites gas to things as scary as pancreatic cancer and rabies. Whatever it lands on you’re instantly afflicted with, while $10,000 will be transferred to your account, tax free.
Since we’re not total psychopaths, we’ll also pay for your medical costs related to the treatment of the disease, assuming it’s treatable. This will cover standard treatment that your average citizen of wherever you live would undergo for the condition, no crazy experimental high end therapies!
If you land on a condition you already have, then it’s like a free spin! Also, if you happen to land on a space for something you can’t be impacted by – for example, you’re a male and you land on “female infertility”, then it’s also a lucky no-consequence spin for you!
Note that you’re afflicted with the disease, not just infected. You instantly become symptomatic and require treatment (if applicable) and cannot take prophylactic measures against it.
To sweeten the pot, you can spin again for 10x the money. So spin it twice and get $100,000. Spin it three times for $1 million. You can spin up to 5 times for a total of $100 million, but you have to choose the number of spins up front, and deal with whatever 5 ailments you land on. But keep in mind there’s 42 cancers on that list, so if you go for all 5 spins, you’ve got a 17% chance of getting at least one kind of cancer (not to mention some of the other nasties on this list).
The only rule regarding the money is that it’s non transferrable. You may use it to buy reasonable gifts for friends and loved ones, but anything deemed as trying to find a loophole for wealth transfer (like gifting stocks or precious metals or such) is deemed against the rules and not allowed.
Are you brave enough to give it a go? Comment with how many spins you want to go and I’ll reply with the results randomly selected from the list of 1,151 diseases and conditions. Best of luck!

All 5. Bring it.
Let’s go five times too. Why not.

3 spins for me. Think i can retire if needed with an aditional million if i invest it well.
When i die can I pass the money on or does it just disappear?
