A Note on Immortality

I would like to explain the moral of one of my short stories, Immortality, written in a rather naive and yet undeveloped style back in 2004. The story is about a penny pinching asshole who gets scientists to lengthen his lifespan indefinitely so he will not have to part with his money. As he ages, he is wounded by tragedies that make him less enthusiastic about his life in this world. As he ages, he also grows wise and with this wisdom he comes to value his money less and less. The story ends with his suicide, when he finally realizes that he can not cheat death in a world that was only designed for temporary use. Do not wait until you are on your deathbed to realize what is truly important in this life. By then it may be too late.
