/// Max is getting Unwelcome Attention
from his daughter-in-law, not to mention
the attractive young maid,
and he’s feeling dismayed
that they think they’ll be getting a pension.
/// His son’s income is not very high,
and their household can barely get by.
But they know Max has cash
and that some of his stash
they can get him to freely supply.
