It takes two years for the elderly bank clerk, Jerrold Pogarty, who after many years of unblemished service is inspired to plan and commit the perfect crime. The crime where nobody will ever pursue the criminal and where he will be free to enjoy his ill-gotten gains for the rest of his life. His crime is so brilliantly planned that nobody will ever know or indeed nobody need ever have known, had he not inadvertently given himself away due to one tiny slip leading to his downfall.

I took the summary from the net , anyway this little story is a kind of funny , people normally spend time planning their vacations but in this case he planned his crime very well yet ...😂

A very bizarre short story about a man who's spent his entire life as a bank clerk, and so as one final act before his retirement, he plots doing exactly as the title says.

I found this story to be somewhat comical.
