Passing Down The Family Business Gifts

'Someday, son...all this will be Mine.'

'Look around Dad. This was once all yours...'

'Well, now that I know he's the owner's son, yes, he's the best damned wine steward I've ever seen.'

'Shhhh. Fido inherited seventy percent of this company.'

'Investment charts can be complicated, son, but that usually means, 'bonuses'.'

"One day, my boy, all this will be retirement homes."

"And this is my junior partner, my son, Ira."

'In the interest of spending more time with my children, I've put Bobby and Emily in charge of corporate strategy.'

'Don't worry, Dad. I'm going to turn this company around 360 degrees!'

"It was a mom-and-pop, but we inherited it."

"You work for the family business, and I am your father, not the patriarchal oppressor..."

'Someday son, all this will be yours to argue with the Environmental Protection Agency over.'

"Hmmm...impressive CV! Y'know, I have a feeling that you'll go far in this company...."

"One day this will all be yours to sell off to the highest bidder."

'Son I want you to Follow in My Footsteps.'

"Someday, my dimwitted son, all this will belong to your sister."

'One day son, all this will be yours!'

"I told you all this would be yours someday, son, and today is that day."

"Son when I'm gone, all this will be yours!"

'One day, this will all be your fault.'

'Someday, son, this will all be yours...to give to the IRS, thanks to the back taxes I owe.'

'I handed over my company to my son and he's doing better than I ever did. Unfortunately he's starting school next year...'

"I brought you up here today, son, because I wanted you to get a feel for the scope of this damned thing."

Mom's The Boss

'There's no need for you to state your opinion, son. Just lipsynching mine will do fine.'

"It belonged to my great... great creepy Uncle Edgar."

"One day, son, all these skyscrapers that we built for no reason and lie empty will be yours."

'Someday, son, all this will be yours...' 'In the meantime...'

'It's a terrific family business: We have about 53 staff-members...'

'A lot of blood, sweat and tears went into making the company what it is today! My father worked hard for what I've got.'

'My son decided to join the firm. You have six months to shape him into executive timber.'

"This is a family operation, Ben, and we're evicting you from our family."

"Now pay attention when mother is speaking, Hubert!"

"So what makes you think you're the right person for this post?" "Well, I'm highly motivated, outgoing and independently minded. Isn't that right, Dad?"

'Someday, all of this liability exposure will be yours!'
