Scrooge Had Nothing On My Rich Uncle
He Passed Away A Few Years Ago But There Are So Many Questions
One of my favorite holiday movies is “A Christmas Carol” starring George C. Scott from 1984. He is the epitome of how I picture Scrooge.
And if you love A Christmas Carol, check out this new movie “Spirited” on Apple TV starring Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell:
But anyway, back to my story. Until recently, I didn’t realize I had a parallel in my own life, starring my Uncle W., the 21st-century version of Ebenezer Scrooge.
The grandson of immigrants, he was the oldest of 3 brothers, stubborn, and loved money. He loved his family more, meaning his 3 kids but he was always after the dollar. Uncle W. was a scrooge with his time and money.
