If I was Big Walter I would split the money up 2 ways. I would give half the money to my wife Lena because I love her and I want her to be happy. I would give the other half of the money to my son Walter because he has a family and I would like him to get a good job and support his family. Money does not matter because I want to leave my family something to remember me with beside money. I want to leave something that they can keep and pass down.
ReplyDeleteIf I was Big Walter, I would have given the money to Lena. I would have done this because I could have asked her to keep the money safe and she split the money to both their children until it was her time to die. If she could keep the money safe until her time and split the money in half for Beneatha and Walter then maybe they could have learned a little bit more of life and being responsible with the money. Walter and Beneatha both have big dreams and one already has their own family to look after. Beneatha stills goes to college and Walter works as a chauffeur so they could work for their own money for a couple of years until Lena would pass away to leave them the money.
ReplyDeleteIf I was Big Walter I would leave the money with Mama (Lena) because she is a perfect example of an unselfish person. When she got the money, she bought a house for her children and grandchildren, and split the money between Beneath and Walter. If I was Big Walter, I wouldn't ask for a much better decision then mama did. It was a perfect way to spend the money and make dreams possible to coming true.
ReplyDeleteIf I was to be Big Walter, and had prepared a Last Will and Testament before I died, I would leave the money to Lena. These are the reasons why. She is my wife, she is a trustful, wise, responsible, and selfless women. Lena is also a mother of our two children, Beneatha who goes to college and Walter that has a family and works as a chauffeur. Lena would want the best for Beneatha and Walter and she would rather make her children happy than herself. When Lena writes her Last Will and Testament, it would be her decision who would own the money.
ReplyDeleteIf I was Big Walter, and had prepared a Last Will and Testament before I died, I would leave the money to Lena. I would know that all of this money wouldn't be able to fill my place, but I would know it would help. Lena is my wife, and she is a great mother. Being a great mother I know that Lena would do something great for our family. She might even give some away to help people that are less fortunate then we are. Whatever Lena decides to do with this money, I know that she will make sure it helps out everyone in our family. Lena is a beautiful person inside and out, and I know she won't use this money foolishly.
