Unless you believe in Genies

| | I chose free groceries for life, good health and other. The other would be more time to volunteer at my church. I just love being with my parish family. |

| I chose mortgage, health and gas. Health would be best. If I didn't have to pay mortgage and gas I would have plenty for everything else I need. I would also not have to work so much so I would have more time to travel, spend with family, volunteer, etc.

| I chose 1, 2, 3.
Our mortgage is the only real debt we currently have.
Free groceries would save us a lot.
Good health is probably the most important.
I figure if i'd no mortgage and free groceries, I could transfer my job to our local store and walk to work since my health would be good!
Then I could do without the free petrol and if I had to go anywhere I could use public transport and help the environment too

| Rent free home (our largest bill), free groceries for life (I can not believe sometimes how much money groceries cost), Health (so very important).

| I chose 1, 2 & 3 as well.
As Escarcha said, without a mortgage and groceries, I'd be able to afford what I want to do in life without much of an income : things around the house / garden / read / spend time with hubby and have some children.
But until the Genie comes around, I better continue saving so that I can do all of these things when the Genie grants my wishes. :-)
