What would you wish for?!

If you could have any wish granted that didn't involve money, looks or love, what would you wish for?

    1 ton of gold. Gold is an element, not money.

    This is acceptable only if you're not planning to sell or trade it.

    Since the OP wants to be snarky -

    Gold is a universal money - as in the definition of money is a medium of exchange. Nice try though bro.

    No fair adding stipulations after lol.

    Fine. A continuous 10000 acres with frontage on a large lake within a two hour driving distance of my home.

    Any tangible good can and likely has been used as a medium of exchange. As such, if an element is ruled out due to its use as a medium of exchange, anything of value would have to be ruled out on the same basis.

    No, it's an answer to a question.

    No, not exactly. For an item to have monetary properties, it must have agreement of acceptance in the present, otherwise, said item is not money, but a commodity to be sold or bartered. But, I enjoy your tenacity when defending yourself. Your wife must be thrilled.

    Desiring to be with God and wanting to help those in need are not mutually exclusive. Rather, if you love God, you necessarily will love others.

    Not to be depressing, but to be a mother. I have health issues preventing my husband and I from being parents. So to be able to have just one child of our own would be a wish come true!
