Wishing Someone else Luck

It all depends on the relationship, If there is hostolity and that good wish comes then I suppose it is taken differently.

I say good luck a lot and I really mean it at the time. Probably wishing them the best even if their current project doesn't work they still may get some good luck.

i wish people good luck in their ventures quite often....very rarely do i mean it sarcastically (but there have been a few times, and those usually came with a chuckle LOL)... i am more prone to wish "good luck" opposed to "god bless" or "god speed" due to a mix of my own beliefs, with also not wanting to offend the other person as well. I am a pretty open and loving person, and wish ill will upon no one, so if i take the time to wish you good luck (even if i don't know you well) it means i took at least a little time out of my day to think of you and hope things go okay.

I rarely wish "good luck" and I rather say something else when I want to. The reason is that for many people in my country, wishing good luck is supposed to cause bad luck. The worst you can do to a theater artist is to offer him/her a bouquet of carnation and to wish him/her good luck.

It is easy to wish people good luck or God bless. We may not really mean it literally but it is a good wish anyway. For people who somehow find it sarcastic, wait till they hear "Happy Birthday" - Do they really think that the well-wishers really want them to drop down after eating the cake? For those people, I wish them "good luck". Life is beautiful because of the loving thoughts in all of us.

It's a way to make sure the person would be careful or get the best result of his or her field
