Hackneyed story comes true

I suppose it has provided the plot for countless essays submitted by creative writing students. "Man told had incurable disease. Will die in weeks" goes out and has a high old time. Then - mixed emotions - not ill at all. Will live for ages and ages but has no money or assets.

If the key to successful writing is to write about what you know, this guy should be on a winner.
