Dan is a single guy living at home with his elderly father, and working in the family business.
One day, he finds out that when his sickly father dies, he is going to inherit a fortune. He's elated to learn of this news.
Dan decides he needs a wife with which to share his great fortune. So he signs up to attend an investment seminar, and at the seminar, he spots the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. The kindness in her eyes takes his breath away.
He sidles up: "I may look like just an ordinary man," he says to her, "but in just a matter of months, my father will die, and I'll inherit 20 million dollars." Impressed, the woman obtains his business card. And three days later, she becomes his stepmother.
Now, that's financial planning!
