What is interesting about this story, among other things, is that you can walk up to someone and hand them two thousand bucks, and they still end up mad at you because you made more than they did.

 

Hah, well if your business strategy involves bargaining with the terminally ill and their loved ones in the months prior to expected death, then I think that you lose some rights to indignation.
