Millionaire Pretends to Be Poor Meeting the Parents of His Son’s Fiancee — Story of the Day

Cranky Old Lady

Sam Sutton never thought that his discovery—how to create an impenetrable sealant for engines that everyone wanted—would have an impact on his then-infant son Will’s romantic life. The family’s life immediately improved as a result of Sam’s discovery. With the patent for that sealant, he began to make a lot of money. Sam bought a new automobile and relocated to a beautiful home with his wife and little kid. As time went on, Sam found himself with more money than he could have ever anticipated. The comfort of his small family was all that mattered to him. The astounding amounts his attorney continued to report on appeared almost unbelievable.

Then Sam and his family experienced a horrible event, and the millions of dollars that were accumulated in the bank had no bearing on it. Rain, Sam’s wife, fell severely ill. Sam insisted that money was no object to the doctors, but they would just shake their heads. Love and good health are the two things in life that money cannot purchase. When Rain died, Sam learned about the first in the most agonizing way possible, and he would learn about the second when Will grew older.

Maybe Sam made a few blunders, but it was not easy being a single parent to a growing boy. Sam spent everything he could afford on Will because he was so gentle, loving, and unspoiled, and Sam could buy everything.

As a result, Will’s high school peers soon discovered that both Will and his father were extremely wealthy and giving. Will quickly rose to the top of the group, not because of his generosity or striking appearance but rather because of his father’s wealth. Particularly the girls gathered around Will like hornets over a nectar pot. Will enjoyed it at first, but with time, he came to understand that they did not want him. They were after his father’s wealth and everything he could afford.

Will broke down in tears when he told Sam that the girl he was in love with was not really into him. All she wanted was to accompany them on their private plane when the Sutton family visited the Bahamas, Veil, and Aspen. While consoling his son, Sam urged him to end his relationship with that girl. The rest of Will’s senior year in high school was pretty lonely, but he had a plan. “Dad,” he said, “I have a plan.” Sam grinned. “OK! What’s your plan?” “I’m going to Yale in the fall, but I want everyone to think I’m a scholarship student.”

Sam blinked in astonishment. “A scholarship student? You? But why?” “Well.” Will said, “if I’m poor and I wear scruffy clothes, people won’t be my friends unless they really like me. Girls won’t want to date me for our money.” That’s very true, Will,” Sam said. “I think that’s a brilliant plan!” And so they put the plan in motion. Will and Sam bought all his clothes and equipment second-hand, and Will was the scruffiest, poorest-looking student you ever saw.
