Chapter 24 - What I Did With the Money
I did not donate everything.
People expected that.
Woman exposes defense fraud, gives fortune away.
Clean ending.
No.
I bought my cottage.
Paid June for a partnership share in the diner when she was ready to reduce hours.
Established an independently managed fund supporting retired military working dogs and handlers facing veterinary expenses.
Another fund supported whistleblower legal assistance in government contracting cases.
I kept plenty.
Retirement.
Travel.
A decent car.
Life.
Guilt did not require financial self-destruction.
My father’s money came from a company with real work and real workers as well as wrongdoing.
