Wish for omnipotence. Now you can do whatever you want. Now that you have that, make yourself incrementally smarter so you can better define smart each time. Become indestructible, but not like a super strong dead piece of metal like that asshole well would’ve done. Then transform the human race into a spacefaring utopian, post scarcity society where your new smartass self defines what that is. Basically become a real benevolent god.
Have philosophers managed to put together a universal best wish?
The best thing I can think of is: true and abiding justice for all of humanity.
I’m sure there’s a monkey’s paw in there somewhere, but I feel like it would potentially have the best outcome for as many people as possible?

Somebody give this person omnipotence, right now.
As much happiness in the universe as possible.
As a certified super wise guy™️, my best wish would be no wish at all.
