{{TB|I soon hatched upon a scheme that would make me a millionaire by the age of six.}}
{{Tapped Out Young Burns Icon}}
{{TB|I drew up plans for an ingenious device known as the "Youthenizer", and threatened young Tommy Edison with a rusty knife until he agreed to invent it for me.}}
{{Tapped Out Young Burns Icon}}
{{TB|Once complete, I filled the youthenizing reservoir with a dram of the vigorous blood circulating through my young veins.}}
{{Tapped Out Young Burns Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|Now, all that remained was to wait until I was a rich old man, desperate to be young again, and sell the Youthenizer to myself for a fortune!}}
{{Tapped Out Young Burns Icon}}
{{TB|But I was impatient! So I went to a bank and took out a tremendous loan, using the future proceeds of the Youthenizer sale as collateral.}}
{{Tapped Out Young Burns Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|Suddenly I was rich – rich beyond most people's wildest dreams! But well within mine.}}

{{TB|No, wait, I remember it poorly. But it makes sense.}}
{{Tapped Out Mr. Burns Icon|Diabolical}}
{{TB|I grew very old and very rich. Then, in desperation, I bought the Youthenizer from myself, paying a sum vastly higher than I'd dared imagine as a lad. It was enough to pay off the loan and turn a tremendous profit to boot!}}
