Maybe, he theorized, he'd been in business for so long, something inside of him was rebelling, trying to break free, trying to remember what life was all about outside of the pressures of the banking industry.
Or maybe this was his own version of meltdown. He couldn't honestly say. He could say that he had to keep his answer straight and business oriented. otherwise, there will be repercussions, serious ones.
To give you the readers digest version, my parents doted on Mike, he was the first born and the golden child.He was and still can be very charming and engaging when he wants to be. However, that didn't change the fact that he has a very weak character and my parents eventually admits that Mike to be saved from himself.So, when they had their will drawn up..they essentially divided the money between Mike and me...they made sure that his own was in form of trust fund. Each month a certain amount..generous even by today's standard, would be released to him, but the principal would remain intact and in trust until Mikes thirty -fifth birthday, at which he will get it all. Ian paused for a moment, silently wishing that Mike was the brother he wanted him to be, a brother who didn't need to constantly be reined in by police.He hated being the bad guy. Mike turns Thirty-five next month.
It was easy to read between the lines, And you don't want him to inherit the money.
No, i don't, Ian agreed bluntly. If he gets his hand on the money, he'll either be dead in a month, or the money will be gone in six. or maybe both. if my brother survives, he'll be in debt in seven. its his nature and although i have bailed him out in the past, his problem keeps increasing and eventually there wont be enough money in the world to cover his dept.
Ian Wilson knows that what he was asking for wasn't easy, nor orthodox. legally, Mike had every right to expect to finally be united with his inheritance. Ian Wilson was trying to have his parent wishes and authority usurped by finding a loophole and extending the age limit on the trust.The only reason his parents had picked thirty-five was because they honestly believe Mike would finally get his acts together by then.
Surprised folks, he is still a kid.
