what happened to Scrooge(From Christmas Carol)?

[Blobbenstein]

Did he get to keep his money?

Did he get a moral sound job?

What happened to him after the end of the book?

 

[Dedalus]

Scrooge was better than his word. He did it all, and infinitely more; and to Tiny Tim, who did not die, he was a second father. He became as good a friend, as good a master, and as good a man, as the good old city knew, or any other good old city, town, or borough, in the good old world.

He had no further intercourse with Spirits, but lived upon the Total Abstinence Principle, ever afterwards; and it was always said of him, that he knew how to keep Christmas well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge.

 

[Amy SF]

He became a philanthropist and became a sponsor of not just one, but several orphanages throughout England. Furthermore, he himself adopted two orphans, a boy and a girl. When they grew up, they both married members of the Cratchit family, and their descendants now operate hospitals and charitable foundations in the UK and Africa. At least two of their descendants are members of Doctors Without Borders.

WHO would have thought fast food chain McDonald’s in Westgate Street and Ebenezer Scrooge would have anything in common?

The famously anti-Christmas Charles Dickens’ character was believed to have been inspired by real-life James Wood who operated one of the earliest private banks in England from the same building in Westgate Street in 1802.
