מועד קטן יד

The father of a wealthy and hugely successful businessman died.  The businessman, who did not have a particularly close relationship with his father, was in the midst of completing a major deal and didn’t want to take a week off to sit שבעה.  So, he hired a מנין of Jews to sit for him.  In the middle of the שבעה, his conscience was troubling him, so he called the רב and asked: “Do I need to pay a שבעה call on the men who are sitting instead of me?”
