    There are other ways to establish the concept of the monetary value of a life.

    You have three buttons in front of you. One will save the life of a random person somewhere in the world. One will kill a random person somewhere in the world, and also add $1m to your bank account. One will kill a person you can observe, and add $1b to your bank account.

    Which button do you press? You're going to think about it, that's for sure.

    How could you justify pressing anything except button 1?

    $3500 buys enough bed nets and malaria fighting drugs to save a life. 1m/3500 is a big number, quite a bit bigger than 1.
