he was a very wealthy man , he had more than enough money to last him and his wife for several lifetimes , so it was his wish that as a way of trying to repay me for saving his life , and to compensate me in some small way for my tragic loss he wanted to split his wealth evenly with me 50/50 , just like that , oh and to also arrange for me to receive the best medical treatment that money could buy ( out of his half of course ) .
