just seems irresponsible to not retain a contract lawyer when a genie grants you three wishes. you gotta make sure your wishes are airtight. been saying this for years

“i wish for a billion dollars” alright genius lets walk through this without a lawyer reviewing your wish. it’s a billion Zimbabwean dollars, pretax. and it’s technically your money but it’s locked in a trust so you can’t touch it. and the transfer causes global economic instability and the value tanks overnight.

lawyer up. genies are not your friends. can’t believe i have to say this in 2024.

that's going to have potentially interesting tax implications

OK Genie, for my first wish, I'll have the best dang contract lawyer.

@smurthys the genie retains historically the best contract lawyer of all time but he’s been dead for 100 years.

or maybe the lawyer you get is alive, but uncooperative, only deals with maritime law, “best” is interpreted as “best for the genie”, their fee is the remainder of your wishes, and they only speak Akkadian
