The Genie's Double Trouble Wish

There were three men stranded on a deserted island, when they stumbled upon a magic lamp. They rubbed the lamp and out popped a genie.

The genie said, "I will grant each of you one wish, but beware – whatever you wish for, your ex-wife will get double."

The first man thought for a moment and said, "I wish for a million dollars."

Poof! In an instant, the man was surrounded by a million dollars. But just then, a boat appeared in the distance and his ex-wife stepped out with two million dollars in hand.

The second man said, "I wish for a beautiful mansion."

In a flash, a luxurious mansion appeared before him. But as he stepped inside, he saw his ex-wife lounging by the pool, enjoying her own grand estate right next door.

The third man, feeling clever, thought hard and said, "I wish to be beaten half to death."
