As Arnold stood at the top of the skyscraper, observing his new personal kingdom (hard-earned, at that!), he realized something- he wouldn't be around long enough to see his empire grow. Arnold was an aging man, in his late 70's already. He had spent his entire life, from the day that he was 18 and just starting college, up until now working for what he had. No, it hadn't been easy. If it was, there would be no point to money because everyone would have it aplenty! As he stood, looking down, he wondered- had it been worth it? Did it feel anything like he expected? He mulled over these questions in his mind. He finally decided- come what may, he was going to enjoy whatever came his way. For now, he was going to enjoy his empire.
