MY WISH
EXPECTED OUTCOME
I wish I could become a multi-millionaire by winning the lottery.
PITFALL #1
INTERFERING WITH FATE: GRANTING WISHES
With all my newfound money, I would give my parents plenty of money to get caught up on bills and to retire early. Then, I would put aside enough money for my sister and I to get a good college education. Finally, I’d pay for a huge family vacation cruise to the Caribbean.
PITFALL #2
Now what?
Some people might try to take advantage of me, or only become my friend because I have money. Some people may even pretend to be a “long lost family member” in order to get some of the money. I may not be able to trust many people and I’d be lonely and depressed.
With all that money, I may not find a need to go to college. If I don’t have any plans for my life, I won’t know what to do with myself. I would also lose touch with my friends, who will go off and have careers, while I would be floating around on a yacht all day.
