This is pretty interesting....I accidentally tried this experiment on myself, only it involved 100 dollars not one million. I was out with a couple of friends of mine. We were in a nearby liquor store, I for some reason thought I lost one of my couple 100 dollars bills. I dwelt upon this the entire night, checking in my friend car, in my car, asking the clerk, and so forth. I got home checked everywhere in my house. Later that day I had a sudden urge to buy a lottery ticket, I bought a 5 dollar ticket the "Lucky for life" i can recall. Sure enough I found the 100 dollars I was looking for. I called my friend and told him in a sigh of relief of how I found the 100 dollars I lost the night before. The only problem is that couple of months later I realized that I did not lose the 100 dollars, I spent the 100 dollars (i'm sure I had the change in my pocket, only to think I should of had another 100 (because I had multiple hundred dollar bills and some change). That changed my entire life, until this day people think it is a coincidence. I refuse to believe in coincidences. I know what happened was pure sub conscious dwelling at it's finest.

why make him believe he is something that he is not. he does not have more or less then any one else. Do not make him believe lie but make him believe the truth. why make him believe in a lie and tell him it is the truth. are the water in the cup not dirty enough? are not people in this world lost enough, and tempted enough by the flesh and the carnality? After the lie comes the deception and the lost of confidence if you have taste of this you know how it taste does it taste better?

I know you will tell me that it will boost the person confidence. But it will be only for a little while until he knows the truth and is set free. then he will know how fouled he was and is confidence will drop. and he will never want to taste lie and death again.

Some will judge that it is taking away something from someone to not give hope in something better. Yet if your hope is a lie it will only give you hope for a little while. If you give hope in truth. this is better. Yet not every one can accept the truth. some do not want to see the truth. Death of the flesh scare them, what they do not know scare them. Eventually they will in truth Know and overcome. They will know the truth and will not thirst again, in this they can have hope because it is the truth.

Do you now believe? Behold, the hour comes, yes, is now come, that you shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. These things I have spoken to you, that in me you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.

To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne.

I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see.

blessed are the peace makers. blessed are the pure of heart.

Let there be light. Be the light that you can be, Experience and enjoy.

This is already done, you can buy those fake scratch off tickets. It is supposed to be a joke but as I have heard, it flings the recipient into depression!

It is like telling someone he is no longer a loser making it official and notarized with a certificate. Then on the back it says "Fooled you, you are still a loser!" That is what those joke tickets must feel like to cause such distress and depression.

Update

I just thought of how this may actually work! You buy her the fake ticket. Then you very purposely do everything you can to convince her it is really real! When she finely finds out the truth, she has a nervous breakdown and then calls her lawyer and sues you for mental distress. It worked! She got her money just like you convinced her she would.

Now that seems pretty feasible there.

I think you are touting what could be a dangerous idea.

I prefer fooling myself, that I have something that I want, but do not yet possess. Last year, a recruiter called me out of the blue, and offered to place me in a position that I held 20 yrs ago, but did not do for 15+ years, due to choices I had made to accommodate others, rather than doing what was good for me. I believed that I was capable of doing it again, did not get that particular position, but I was motivated to look for similar positions. I doubled my salary in the course of a few months. I got a job that I truly enjoy and that I am GOOD at. Currently, I am using this to decrease my excess weight. I used to be slender, but I am currently obese. I have researched what has changed to make me obese, and what I must do to change that, and am currently successfully losing my excess fat. Next, when I have regained my confidence by losing my excess fat, I will get the relationship I want. I imagine it, I see it, I have told no one until right now ... but I trust this group.
