A man is confronted by the devil, the devil says "you have three wishes, but each wish you ask for, your wife gets double".
So the man made his first wish, "I wish for one million dollars", he got his million and his wife got two million.
He made his second wish "I want my own island", he got his own island, but his wife got two islands.
The devil then said "this is your last wish, think about it very carefully". So then the man made his last wish "I wish to beaten till I am half dead".
