Genie in the Garbage
One day this fellow finds a lamp in the garbage. He rubs the lamp and a genie appears. The genie says, "I will grant you three wishes, but there is one condition: your mother-in-law will receive double whatever you get."
The man thinks about it for a minute and asks for a new sportscar. The genie grants his wish and tells him his mother-in-law now has two new cars.
For his second wish he asks for $10 million dollars in his bank account. The genie grants his wish, and reminds the man that his mother-in-law now has $20 million dollars in her bank account.
The man thinks about his third wish for a few moments, and then smiles and asks the genie to beat him half to death.
