I was going to say, it seems like it would be pretty easy to get a very specific amount of money, especially with large numbers like that. Doesn’t make for a great story though lol.

Wouldn't this be very easy to game?

Sure, you can only wish if it's never been wished for, like "I wish for a million dollars", or "I wish my mom wasn't sick" might be blocked as they would have been wished for in the past.

But it seems like you could game it by re-wording your wish and adding a modifier.

"I wish that I, John Doesmith, had 1 million dollars" Or "I wish that my mom, Jane Doeson, wasn't sick"

Technically, they're both wishes that have been wished before but adding it to add you or someone else, turns it into a different wish as you're specifying someone else/yourself.

I’ll settle for “I wish I {listing out my full legal name} had the powers of Meta Luck, Science-Magic Lordship, and Freedom, inherent to myself and as they are defined, on the Superpower Wiki; as of this time {listing out the date and time, down to the second}”.

I’ll then turn around and grant the genie it’s freedom, if it doesn’t already have it.
