You may have heard this one: A ninety year old man married to an 89 year old woman is granted one wish. The man selfishly asks that he be married to woman twenty years younger than him. Do I really need to add the punchline?
Even a cheap dolly still costs 20$. Assuming he’’ resell these dollies at half price, and assuming he can get rid of 50% of his stock then that’s still 5 million worth
Jock was walking on his favorite beach in Queensland when he spotted some shiny metal sticking up out of the sand. On inspection, it turned out to be an old oil lamp. He picked it up and brushed it off, and in doing so he released the genie who’d been trapped inside.
“Hi, there”, said the genie. “I’m an ancient genie who’s been trapped for way too long in that tiny little lamp, and I want to thank you properly for freeing me. May I grant you a wish?”
“Um, isn’t that supposed to be THREE wishes?”, asked Jock.
“Come on, dude, don’t be greedy. I was just an apprentice genie in the first place. That’s how they trapped me so easily in this crummy little lamp. Smash the crap out it if you would, by the way. God, I hate that thing! Anyway, all I’ve got in me is one wish. What’ll it be?”
Jock paused a bit in thot. “Well”, he finally said, “I’ve always gotten on real well with me mate Bob. He’s m’brother, y’know, but he up and took off for America nearly a decade ago and now he lives near Hollywood. Wanted to break into acting and all, but it hasn’t been going well and he can’t afford to fly back and visit. I myself am terrified of flying, so I guess what I’d like most is a big long highway from here in Brisbane up to Los Angeles so I can drive my Holden up there to surprise him.”
“Are you deaf, man? Didn’t you hear me say that I was only an APPRENTICE genie? Do you know how much work a highway all the way across the Pacific Ocean would involve? It would be a challenge for the greatest genies of all time! Now get real and ask me for something reasonable.”
“Oh, OK. Sorry. Umm, how about if you can let me understand women?”
It could have been worse. The Djinn could have buried the guy in one million Zimbabwe $1 notes, which were worthless due to extreme inflation. The Zimbabwe dollar became so inflated that they were printing 100 trillion notes before they finally gave up and just used foreign currency since 2008.

I suppose there is somewhere in the world where those are called dollys but around here they’re called hand trucks.

Well, since the Genie was trapped for thousands of years, he may not know what a dollar is.

Those are handcarts or handtrucks. A dolly is traditionally a flat platform on wheels—but the misuse is common enough that the joke still works.

Being trapped in a lamp for hundreds of years obviously causes hearing impairment.
