Mitt Romney has a succession dilemma


Willard Mitt Romney or he is lovingly(by republicans only) called Mitt Romney is now facing the mathematical challenge of his life. No it's about about how he is going to outsmart President Obama this campaign. It about how he's going to divide his assets among all his heirs. As promised he does have heirs as there are neurons in his brain - he now has hired an accounting firm (the same who oversaw his investments in Chinese Oil Companies) to help him solve this dilemma.

He initially intended to divide his $250M (and growing) wealth among his 5 sons(Tagg, Josh, Ben, Matt and Craig) equally but now given their offsprings love him just as much, he has now 20 heirs in 2 generations and with one of his daughters-in-law carrying now would have a weird number of 21 heirs. What has now happened is that the value of his wealth is not completely divisible by 21. The accounting firm is now making investments to achieve this unique feat.

Incidentally this has also started a race to among his sons to have more kids.

The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-day Saints(or simply the Mormon Church) is watching the proceedings closely.
