That's a Dollar Per Flea...

My uncle once said, "This life promises much, but keeps it all". That's very true, once you cross over you either inherit your riches in heaven or your poverty in hell. And you don't know just how threadbare things are unless you've worked here in A.D. I've got to bring in my own paper clips EVERY DAY!

The best you can hope to do is make sure others benefit from the legacy you leave behind...or you can use it to make one last dig. The famous Leona Helmsley did just that (story here). She died and left twelve million dollars to, wait for it...her DOG! This "neuvo-bitch" is in care of her brother who only was left ten million. Two grandchildren were cut out completely "for reasons which are known to them".

Bang up job Leona! I will have to take her out to lunch to congratulate her on such an inspired finishing stroke to her life. However, she'll be paying.

The real question here is who or what is the dog's beneficiary in its Last Will and Testament?

Believe me, if she's made such extravagant provisions for her dog it's probably got more legal papers than the average American.

I'm surprised no one is asking THAT!

So you think the pup is "legal paper trained?"
