Once there was a man named Bob that thought he had everything. After graduating from high school he went to college and received a lucrative degree in finance. With that knowledge he made a lot of money in his life. His investments in stocks and bonds made him millions of dollars. He was good looking, had a beautiful wife, a huge house, a Mercedes Benz, two kids and a golden retriever. Additionally, he was a good Christian and attended church every weekend. Lovingly, he donated a lot of his wealth to Jesus. Bob had left no base uncovered in his life… or so he thought.
Each day Bob got up and ate his pancakes, eggs, bacon and cheese. He also liked Captain Crunch with milk poured on top. Each afternoon he stopped at Burger King for a Whopper and fries. With every meal he had to have meat and potatoes and he always had a soda to drink. This was the diet Bob’s parents had consumed and the one he’d been taught to eat from the day he was born. He also liked drinking beer because this is what all his friends did – as a social activity. By the time he got to be about 45, he already looked bloated. At age 55 you’d think he was pregnant – as his belly was so HUGE!
Then Bob started having health problems – specifically, acid indigestion, gas and abdominal pain. Fortunately, because he had plenty of wealth, he did have the best health insurance money could buy – so he went to the doctor. The doctor prescribed to him several different medications and he happily went home to resume his previous lifestyle.
Initially his health troubles subsided but soon thereafter he started experiencing rectal bleeding and diarrhea. Two months later he was dead! He was only 68 years old.
His kids were in shock. How did this happen? They also thought their dad had everything. They went to the funeral. It was so sad but least they were going to get all his money! Yaa hoo! Now they too could buy all the junk food that they needed to be happy!
