Well done, I think. Most would see it as almost sacrilege to try and add to a classic like this, but this seems done with good intention.<br /><br />Funny, your thoughts on Scrooge's motivations for his miserly ways. Feels very true and more fleshed out, rather than just 'he was selfish'.<br /><br />I was thinking the other day when dealing with an unexpected expense that life would be easier with a windfall of funds. But then I pushed myself further, and realized even with more money, I would find some way to be worried about that and there might never be any true peace to be found. I don't know.
