I'm a much more humane individual. I think they should be allowed to 'purchase' a ladder before going in, with several different lengths being offered. However, the only one that's actually anywhere near long enough to let them escape the pit and the molten lead is the one that costs 99.99% of their wealth.

Call it a kind of ethical self-selection for those that place excessive, short-sighted value on their own holdings.

It's a really easy "Everyone wins" scenario though, as long as you aren't someone who prefers obscene wealth to life. :)
