I would wish for 3 more wishes. Then, my 1st wish would be World peace. My 2nd wish would be for the end of starvation in the World. My 3rd wish would be for 3 more wishes. I would use 2wishes for good and the 3rd wish ask for 3 more wishes again. But when making a wish one would have to be careful to phrase it right or it could be unhappiness. Example - If you simply asked for 'World peace' that would mean that there would be no sounds at all ( no birds singing, no trees rustling, no traffic noise, etc.)

well said leigh, well said, not selfish at all, but i wonder, if the genie comes with rules, i.e. no wishing for more wishes. But it's your wish , if he said you can't wish for no wishes, but can you wish for the genie to let you wish for more wishes, then on your second wish wish for more wishes. Kinda playin the system in your own favor.....

I think I'd wish for fulfillment of all my life's dreams, an unlimited supply of good books to read, and for the genie to be free. I don't really want wealth or fame, just happiness!

I personally think that a good book beats television, movies, and the internet. If you want really great dreams, then I suggest reading more! Nothing stimulates the imagination better than reading.

ah with wealth and fame, happiness isn't always there, good choice. Sometimes I wish i had the ambition to read books, but that's me i much rather watch a good movie, but im lazy like that

to save all the animals all over the world. to get rid of all "kill animal shelters" and animal gas chambers because they are sick, similar to animal holocaust. create only "no-kill" animal shelters and animal sanctuaries.

I too love animals, i think if i were to factor that into one of my wishes i would try to factor it in with lots of money so i can use it to aid in the efforts, but if you wished away abuse to animals i guess this would take care of it as well, good one though i love it

First would definitely be about health because if we do not have good health then we cannot enjoy wealth too, so the second will be wealth and finally the last will be families all together.

But what if you already in good health? would that be a waste of a wish iwonder? I like the families altogether as well, In this generation it almost seems that families are falling further and further apart from each other, with busy schedules, and both parents working, and even more and more activities for children as the get older to even video games. It seems these things are consuming our families and we tend to forget about the closeness that is needed to hold them together. make sense?

I would wish for happiness, health and wealth. And Oh Yes, if the genie wants to be free I would fee him/her.

thats the way, to me if there were such things as genies, if he/she gives you wishes, that for real come true you should be kind and give him that last wish, if you think about it it is as if he/she is a slave, and they did us a service lol

If i was lucky enough to find a pot of gold, i wouldn't need any more wishes. I could buy anything i wanted. If I came across a genie, I would wish for happiness, good fortune and maybe a little fame as well.
