If I gave you 10 Mahalo dollars and ask that you give it away to anyone here, how much would you give away, and how much would you keep?
I did not say I would do this. I am just conducting an experiment.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

10 Mahalo dollars are basically worthless, and I would do the same if it were 100 Mahalo dollars. 100 even seem rather worthless to me, and if you just sent it to me randomly, I would have no problem tipping someone 100.
If you said $1,000, this would change things, and honestly (and quite strangely) I would keep it all.

M$Why? What is my reasoning? Firstly, it makes me happy to give money away to folks and second, here at Mahalo Answers giving money to people is really more of a give and take.. I add money to questions I ask or add money to the questions of others I would like to see get answered and 99% of the time the Mahalo Answers community comes through with some pretty fantastic research, information, deduction, and informed opinion.. sometimes I get far more than I have "paid" for in the answer department...and lastly I just do not need these Mahalo Dollars for anything else but asking questions and having fun here in Mahalo Answers.

M$This month I cashed out completely for the first time. I usually leave some money to play with in my account so I can team tip and put money on my own questions. It felt weird not having any money on Mahalo.
I felt sad and poor... only because I'm used to spreading the wealth around here.
I'm okay now, I've got answers coming in, but it was hard for a few days not to be able to use money like I'm used to in the community.
I have been given money before from Mahalo with the explicit purpose of spreading around and had no problem doing so before, so you could count on me to do as you wish.
*bunny money is always fun

M$Well actually that plan might be a little lofty. In reality I would use all ten for a contest question, there kinda fun.
If I kept the money It would be easy for you to see that I did not do what you asked. Then you would likely tell others, stealing the money would just be to grimey for any respected mahalo member.
I like your style of questions, two great ones today!

A related question:
If I gave you 10 Mahalo dollars and ask that you give it away to anyone here ANONYMOUSLY, how much would you give away, and how much would you keep? No one here will know who you gave the money to, or whether you kept it yourself. The person receiving the money would also not know who it came from.
