How about a golden unicorn that feeds on Donald Trump's lies and craps $100 bills.

We could pay off the national debt with that money. 🙂

Dinner and a movie with Brad Pitt!

That is a very provocative question you asked. My imagination is running wild.

Imagination is a good thing. 🙂

I have my fantasies @Alliegirl

1

A nice raise so I could afford a new car.

1

An equal (or even superior) part-time, companion

2

The sanity of my late wife.

1

Do away with the entire concept of currency worldwide. Everyone gets what they need, when they need it, within reason of course.

1

Salma Hayek to join me for dinner. And then breakfast. No Henri, you're not invited.

1

Total fantasy world I would love to traverse into other dimensions. For true life a woman to share life.

Honestly, a whole pile of cash--probably 4 or 5 million, at least. There is absolutely something to be said for the healing, healthful power of not having to constantly worry about survival/basic needs. I'd want enough money to make DARN SURE that neither I nor any of my loved ones have to struggle like that again.

hot wet dirty athletic prolonged sex [ with my wife of course]

To have the ability to know everything

World peace

If the question is what would I ask for personally in my life, that would definitely be true love. A companion I could count on to always be there, have my back. Honest, loyal and loving. If I were asking for all of humanity, it would be to cut our military budget by 60%, and use the extra money strictly for cancer research.

Can we get serious about climate change already?

no

I no longer wish for impossible, so practically I would ask to be debt free with enough money to put a downpayment on a modest home.

Very modest. Even more feasible if you pioneered and built your own dwelling.

@FrayedBear I am 50 years old with neck and shoulder issues, I doubt I could learn enough carpentry or be strong enough to build a house.

@Nemeister A problem. I was in the process of making myself a mobile home when some mother's child did a hit and run on me leaving me for dead in the road. Bang went that plan and home of the previous six years.

@FrayedBear I'm sorry 😟 That's horrible!

@Nemeister C'est la vie. Not your child nor you.

Xmas 1979, a New-York radio asked the British ambassador what he would most like for xmas. It being not too long since watergate etc. the ambassador thought about it and asked for something small just in case. The next day they reported " We asked all the ambassadors what they would most like for xmas. The Indian Ambassador asked for an end to poverty, the Chinese world peace, whilst the British ambassador asked for a pipe and a new pair of slippers "

I would ask for peace!

A new set of lungs, not just a transplant but real new ones.

How long do matched transplants last and how far are they off perfecting a blood oxygenator that can be worn on the wrist?

@FrayedBear Some have lasted 10 years , about 25% lasts 5 years, it really depends on best donor match. They have experimented with animals and had some success with oxygenated blood but not long lasting results. It's most likely long time before human use. I'd put money on stem cells first, there's even a procedure now that gives some good results using your own stem cells,but it's expensive and not Medicare approved. I heard $25,000 cost.

@buzz13 The only person I know off with similar problem is the great English fiddle player Dave Swarbrick (Fairport Convention, Martin Carthy, Alistair Hulett and other folk musicians). I'm not sure if he is still alive not having corresponded now for some years - No he sadly died in 2016 Dave Swarbrick - Wikipedia [en.m.wikipedia.org] . There is a Swedish chap who runs an organisation called Breatheology who may be able to give you some benefit. There are lots of YouTube videos and talks -

I wish I had the power to make that a reality. 🙂

A space for a juggle club near me. Every American with over 100 million dollars to redistribute 1 million dollars to the poor as a UBI.

Lauxa Level 5 Mar 10, 2018

What is a "juggle club" and UBI?

1

Blackmail and classified information for everyone and everything in the entire world past, present and future. Then just blackmail politicians into getting western soldeirs out of the middle east.

2

For someone to pay my present long-term debt (mortgages). THEN @HeathenFarmer's idea!
