Succession (Part 1)

Everett had invested a good portion of his fortune in his efforts to extend his life. The doctors researching brain transplants cost him millions, financial advisors to ensure continued control of his businesses were in the tens of millions, a good deal would be lost according to his lawyers simply from juristictions that wouldn’t allow his new body to claim certain aspects. But the body itself? Well, he was able to purchase that for about $100,000. He could almost laugh at how desperate some poor people were! And this woman had been in dire straits. She was about to be kicked out of her home and onto the streets, and turning to vile acts as a way to earn a living. And yet she gave up decades of her life to Everett in exchange for cash. He wondered how long she even had left to live in his 80-year-old body, especially considering the brain transplant probably weakened it. He ultimately decided it wasn’t much of a concern to him now that his brain was now in her younger, healthy body!
