Kelly here. Nick is getting his rest in the hospital. The surgeries went
really well, and the buyer is pleased with the results. They’ve transported
the specimens to some secret facility, and will be studying them without any
input from us. We will never know what becomes of their research, unless
someone comes out with a miracle cure in five years that can fix anything.
Then we’ll be pretty sure that Nick had something to do with it. He’s on the
road to recovery, and will be able to return home shortly. He thought that he
may have to stay here for only a couple of days, but we’ll probably keep him
for the rest of the week, just so he doesn’t have to deal with the stress of
moving around. You’ve all been asking for this, so I suppose I ought to just
say it. Nick has authorized me to reveal the amount of money that he received
for these surgeries, and after you read it, you won’t question why he went
through with it anymore. He’s not greedy, but he thinks that he’ll be able to
do a lot of good with it, so he just couldn’t pass on it. We’re still not
gonna tell you who we did business with. You may not have heard of him anyway.
He’s not one of those uber-wealthy businessmen who dance on stage at their
tech bro conferences, and buy newspapers just so they’ll say nice things about
them. He’s not a recluse, but he’s discreet, and so are we. But like I
said, I’m allowed to tell you how much he paid for Nick’s index and marrow.
The final number is 24 million dollars. Yes, 24. Yes, million. It was 24 milly
bucks. That’s an insane amount of money, to be paid out in a lump sum by the
end of the month. The funny thing about it is that it’s entirely tax free. The
buyer knows how to navigate the complexities of tax law, and avoided them by
marking it down as an investment in research, pulling it from a particular
type of account, and depositing it into another certain type of account that
his people helped us set up. I obviously don’t understand it, but I’m sure it
will become a matter of public record someday. For now, we have tens of
millions of dollars to figure out what to do with. We’ll probably build a few
hospitals, and even more free clinics. Might as well help people medically
before the research pans out—or more likely—in place of it. He spent his money
on a hope and a dream, but we’ll be able to translate that into immediate
action. I can’t wait to get started.
