The pearl might and might not destroy Juana and Kino depending on what they will do with it. They could be hated by their community or become crazy with the money. Although they might be the richest people in the town some rich people become more hungry because of what they have. If they have found the pearl they should be thankful and know what's right and not waste it for random things.
One thing that Kino shouldn't buy is the rifle because there wouldn't be a tremendous need for it. I can understand why they want to get married in a church, get new clothes, and give Coyotito an education, but there is no purpose for the rifle and the harpoon. It's like rich people buying an airplane, they will not use it all the time and what would Kino do with the rifle and the harpoon? If he goes hunting it will be probably only twice a year. Juana might be mad and not love Kino anymore and it will destroy there lives.
