A guy is walking along the souk when he comes across a lamp, displayed on a shelf among other precious objects.
He picks up the lamp and gives it a rub. A genie appears and tells him he has been granted one wish.
The guy thinks for a moment and says, “I want to live forever.”
“Sorry,” said the genie, “I’m not allowed to grant eternal life.”
“OK then, I want to die after the government balances the budget and eliminates the debt.”
“You crafty little bastard!” exclaimed the genie.
