I read this short story very shortly after reading 2BR02B and I realized right away that I may have read these stories in the wrong order. This story was a lot like the aforementioned except that instead of people controlling the living forever problem with strict birth regulation there seems to be no regulation. This story is about a family living in a small apartment waiting for the oldest to die so that they can inherit the will except that he keeps taking his magic serum that allows him to live indefinitely and hoard his money over the rest. I thought 2BR02B was way better.
Now this one, I haven't read. Someday I'll just tackle all of his short story collections in little chunks at a time.
