If you could be granted one wish, what would it be?

My husband and I don't have a savings account at this time either. However, we are planning on opening one next year with our tax return. I too am a stay at home mother and sometimes I really wish that I was able to get out of the house more often as well. It does get monotonous to be at home all day every day, but then I think about the benefit for my children in the future and I stay at home with them longer.

I have no children at this time so it does get boring sometimes. I like making friends on mylot and it does help me get through the bad times, but I still miss working outside the home. I wish you all the best and am really glad that we are friends.

LOL. That is probably a wish that a lot of people would have. One things for sure, if you were the favorite son of Bill Gates you'd never have to worry about your financial outlook.

And i will give ALL MYLOTTERS their latest,fastest computer courtesy of my Dad, Bill Gates.

Both of these wishes would be wonderful things to have come true in your life. However, I think yo made the right decision in saying you wish they'd find a cure for your wife's eye ailment. By having that wish come true, I'm sure both her and your quality of life would go up.

When I got married five years ago, I had a friend tell me at my wedding that she was very happy that I found the right man for me. She said, I don't think that I will ever find the person that I want to spend my life with. Well, just five months after my husband and I got married, she got married as well to a wonderful man that takes great care of her. Even if you lose faith in finding a husband, I'm sure that it will happen for you in time.

I really like this wish. Not only would it benefit so many people, it is also a very selfless wish to have, thank you very much for sharing.

Great wish and I really hope that this can come true for you. Family is so very important and being close to your family is important as well. Best of luck to yourself and to your mother.

I agree with you, I feel like if our family was given the opportunity to be debt free we would never find ourselves in the mess that we've found ourselves in and we'd be able to do a lot more beneficial things with our lives.

I think this is a wish that a lot of people would like to have come true in their lives. The freedom to do without the stress of worrying about money would be a great benefit in all of our lives.

What a great wish that you've got. I sincerly hope that you are able to have this wish come true in your life.

What a great wish to have. I know that there is a person out there that will help you to fulfill your wish in life. And at that time I know that you will be the happiest woman alive.

I don't know that society in general is able to go back to those times, but I know that it is possible for a family to make the decision to go back to that kind of lifestyle. My husband and I, in fact, just did this two months ago. It's been two months since we've used a credit card for anything and even though we don't have a lot of money in the bank where we are trying to pay off our prior debt, we are happier because we are living within our means that naturally we have instead of living in means that are artifically created.

I too would have liked to have been able to see these things in my past. I know that when I first stepped out into the world there were poor decisions that I made and had I known the outcome of them I would have never made those kind of decisions.
