The Cub Who Bought the World

Damian Kramer was a billionaire. He dies and comes back as Ben, a primary-school boy in a household with no money, whose father walked out and whose mother is working off the debts he left behind. Ben keeps quiet about what he remembers, goes to school, and watches his mother go without. On her birthday he digs up the bank card from his previous life. There are two hundred billion euros on it. The moment it is used the financial world notices, because that card belonged to Damian Kramer and Damian Kramer is supposed to be dead. The people who control serious money start arriving to pay their respects to the legend, and what they find waiting is a child with a school satchel who has no interest in any of them beyond what they can do for his mother. He runs the conglomerate from behind them, with nobody outside a small circle able to believe who is giving the orders.
