"You will prosper in the field of wacky inventions."
- Final words of New York business tycoon Walter E. Whippet, spoken to his son, Merganzer.
Walter E. Whippet's son, Merganzer, was an impulsive young man of fifteen when he raced into his father's room just in time to hear those fateful words. Merganzer had just finished his tenth consecutive year of boarding school, during which time his father had been busy building a financial empire. Needless to say, the two had never been close.
The words were not the sort of thing Merganzer's father was known for saying. People close to the old man would have expected something like "Buy cheap, sell high! And whatever you do, don't squander the family fortune." But twelve seconds later, Walter E. Whippet was dead. "You will prosper in the field of wacky inventions" were the only words of advice Merganzer had.
If only Merganzer had known they were spoken by a man who'd been talking gibberish for weeks.
Things might have turned out differently.
