Money
Money does not give happiness, but it is a great support. Mary has wasted almost her wealth in the new house. She was not worry; they had enough with the wage of David. His father helped them.
They married at the Church of Saint Paul the Apostle, with a few guests. Mary's parents were old when she was born, it was such a science miracle, his mother was almost fifty; they only had family in England. Mary invited them, but just seven came. The majority of guests was friends of both.
Appearances deceived. David could not believe Mary was thirty, she seemed younger. Maybe his sympathy made her to look so. The matter is he did not feel deceptioned.
Their home was gigantic; four rooms, the minor could contain two beds; one living room, with big television, one high fidelity music system, a big library, three sofas for one, two and three seater each.
They entered at home to stay for first time; he thought it was the right prize for his talent, she thought this is the beginning of a new life, thanks God.
One thing is tell a story and another very different showing it. I told David was the number one at the agency, now I want to show it.
The branches' computers just developed its closed areas, this main agency developed the whole country. David saw a big chance; when he had not any customer to serve, he searched by internet, took note of their phone number or e-mail. He found somebody interested:
-Good morning. My name is David. I call you from New Home.
-Good morning. Precisely now I want to go to the agency in Austin.
-It doesn't necessary. I may send you the form by e-mail, you must print, fill, firm and send it by mail to the address included.
-Thank you very much. I never thought internet eases so.
But not all the cases were so easy. Some peoples were not sure and David must pursue them. For example:
-I have found another cheaper.
-Chicago is a big town, where?
-In Evanston.
-What you save in the house, you could spend travelling.
-It is nearer to my job than your house.
-Well. My house has three rooms, also the other?
-It has two, enough for us. I am old and I want a smaller house.
-Have you sons?
-Yes, two.
-Which house is nearer to them?
-I thought about it, yours is nearer, but price difference is big.
-A home is an investment for the future. When you will retire, will you want to live closed to them?
-My wife says the same, but three rooms are too much.
-Maybe you will have many grandsons. Would you like they will sleep at your home?
-We would like. You have convinced me.

Richard was born the next year. He grew healthy. His parents discussed about his education, he told:
-I want Rick learns at the best school, we can pay it.
-It is not for money, I think he needs to know children of several kinds, not only of high class.
-I want the best for my son.
-Also I, but he would grow in a world apart, isolated of reality. I want to give him freedom to decide his future, he will need to know everything.
David agreed.
Mary had relations among the high society, a few of them was to the wedding. She introduced her husband.
David just had friends by his job. That was a new world for him, he felt himself as a fish in the water and he enjoyed in every meeting.
One night, on the bed:
-David, we need a car.
-Why? My job is near, I want to go walking.
-To travel and going to the parties. I have made numbers, we are able to buy a new Jaguar.
-Why not Mercedes?
-Because it is not English.
-Now I understand, your English roots. I like that car, let's buy it.
Every weekend they left New York to know another states, always renting a house of the agency, both had driving permission, so the trip was more comfortable. Sometimes they flew to the west coast. As I wrote before, they never visited Kentucky. David's parents used to announce their visit with enough time, then the young family stay at their home.
They lived in a dream during a decade, with a large home, luxury clothes, furniture, car, jewelry and a big stack of money.
