Bankruptcy Client's First Five Dollar Bill he earned:


A distinguished elderly gentleman who had led an exciting life in show business walked into my office.  He was retired now, on a fixed income with medical bills and living expenses.  The residuals he had been receiving from affiliates in Chicago were dwindling. He felt terrible but knew Bankruptcy was the only option to ease the stress of creditors calling him.  The weight on his shoulders would not allow him to sleep at night.  As he was getting a check out of his saddle brown leather worn wallet, this five dollar bill fell on my office floor.  I asked him what it was and replied,”It is the first $5.00 I ever earned and I never want to forget it.”
