be immoral if it meant getting what you want? In other words does the end justify the means?

How would you feel having it all but knowing you've become man/woman you can't respect, or trust?

Would you lie to yourself, try to excuse and/or justify your own weaknesses?

What would you do? ;)

You ask questions i'd like to answer in my native language because it's hard to explain with my poor english but i sincerely say i wouldn't (i dont know really what you mean by being immoral but I will reply with my own perception)
> "Would you put your own desires before others and be totally selfish without caring results of your choices "
I think being moral for fear of God or eternal punishment is not really being moral ..If you still think about your ego, it's another selfishness -this time a mystical one.

I am a part of bigger universe I don't think I would be happy when I indulge myself in my whims ,it will end with a despair and emptiness.A total deep dissatisfaction and disappointment.Knowing that beforehand ,nope I would not prefer my get ego lost in realm of desires.

Personally, I couldn't go around hurting and stepping on other people even if it meant we got to live like kings. My moral compass would malfunction lol

Sorry but even Pirates know were the line is drawn, I would not be able to live with myself knowing I had hurt others to get my desires...
I have in my youth bent the rules, but only once broken them, for this I am ashamed and also content at the same time, I still believe what I done was for the greater good...

There's some sort of Brain Trigger that stops me from doing this.

Work in a big company. From the bottom, looking up & you'll see plenty of those sleeket types.
