  Classic Dickens tale would be different today
Time: 11:45 EST/16:45 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Robert Stein

Charles Dickens' famous character Ebenezer Scrooge may have had some character flaws, but he was the quintessential financier of his day. It would be interesting, however, to consider how Dickens would pen a modern-day version of "A Christmas Carol." Dickens' popular, but not very profitable, 1843 book offered readers a gripping tale that beyond its captivating mix of terror and holiday-inspired emotion was a well-crafted allegory offering a stinging assessment of the economic and political structure of his day.
