A dialogue between two friends about buying lottery ticket
Sultan : What you buying?
Salim : I'm buying a lottery ticket.
Sultan : Have you every won a lottery?
Salim : No, never!
Sultan : Well, this time you are going to win. But what would you do if you were a millionaire?
Salim : I would use my money very wisely.
Sultan : What would you do with all the money?
Salim : I would have a big hospital constructed for the poor.
Sultan : How much would you charge the patients?
Salim : The treatment would be free, completely free. You are a doctor. You said you would contest a seat in Parliament. What would you do if you became the Prime Minister?
Sultan : In that case I would appoint you as my advisor.
Salim : Then I would run the hospitals in the best way possible.
Sultan : Imagine you won the election. What would you do to wipe out corruption?
Salim : I'd do everything within my power to eradicate corruption.
Sultan : do you really think anybody would be able to do it if they tried?
Salim : I have my own doubts.
Sultan : What if you failed in your attempt?
Salim : I suppose I would persist in my attempt.
Sultan : Suppose you introduced very severe punishments to stop corruption?
Salim : Do you think it would prevent corruption? I wonder what would happen if we wipe out corruption.
Sultan : Then people would be very happy and you'd be re elected.
Salim : I wonder when we would be able to wipe out corruption, poverty and illiteracy. I wish I knew how to do it!
Sultan : Ok.
Salim : Ok.
