>If you have no empathy and view people you don't know as worthless
You don't have to do that to pick the other side though. A normal human will be sad either way about his choice precisely because of empathy. It's about thinking one is more important to you, not that the other side is "worthless". As a human I think it is hundred percent okay to be selfish and emotional, and make decisions guided by that. Abandoning your very nature for some 5 > 1 logic will only lead to ruin. Sure you can save the 50k, but among the ten was the person you wanted to marry and spend the rest of your life with, your best friend you've known since kindergarten and your dear family members. Now they're gone, you become depressive and in the worst case suicidal and kill yourself. This is no way to live unless you're literally Jesus Christ and don't care about yourself. At that point it's no longer empathy but self–abandonment.
