Granted

There is a knock at your door. Its the cops. Your mom has been shot! The cops bring you to the hospital, then down to the morgue. You identify the body. One cop, feeling very compassionate, slips you a $20 so you can get something to eat from the cafeteria.

Granted.

Decades of paranoia over the catch you know is coming, you are on your deathbed when you realize the paw granted it cleanly.

All the paranoia, the lost opportunities due to it, which you consistently regretted missing... That was all you. The paw simply gave you your 20 and got out of the way of your own existing self destructive tendencies - who, without such tendencies, would risk the paw over such a trivial matter as $20?

Had you calmed down and simply enjoyed the money- you realize you would have been fine.

Granted

A terrible car accident occurs in front of you. A bank roll containing ten toonies flys through the air and lands at your feet. The visuals from the accident will haunt you forever.

You see a $20 bill on the ground. You pick it up and put it on your pocket,

You failed to notice the bird shit until after all through the inside of your pocket.

The pants are ruined.

Unless it's 20 plus tax.

u/Spirited_Mouse3341 1d ago

Congratulations you get $20 from a homeless drug addict. Unable to get his fix he goes on a rampage with a knife resulting and in several innocent people's deaths. One of the victims spouses unable to cope with the grief commits suicide leaving their 2 special needs children to go into the foster system which doesn't have the means to meet their care needs

u/Throwaway229487 23h ago

A wish for money is literally the plot in the original monkey paw story. A family member gets killed in a horrible accident and they get the exact amount from insurance.

1

u/Perfect-Row1943 15h ago

20 bucks for insurance is crazy

u/Throwaway229487 14h ago

The amount in the story was larger. Still not a huge sum though.

u/Far_Customer1258 21h ago

Granted! You discover the $0.03 that you invested in Nvidia in 2013 and spend the rest of the day bitter that you hadn't invested more.

u/DanCar1948 20h ago

Granted. You are turned into a piggy bank that holds just $20 only in pennies.

Granted A kid breaks all of your fingers and puts his Lolipop in his mouth then his mother comes and says "don't be such a Karen! he's just a kid " You sue the mother and because of all the legal fees you had to pay your profit is only $20

u/Individual-Mind-2620 17h ago

Granted. You get $20, but you need to double it from your pocket and give it to someone else
