" Son may turn out to be the Victor Frankenstein of the cheap-money era. He’s helped create a monster that could do him serious harm."
Why is it that all Frankenstein metaphors are poor? This one at least doesn't confuse the monster and the creator. In the story it's Frankenstein trying to destroy the monster, not the other way around.
In the spirit of productive discourse I'd suggest the sorcerers apprentice as a better comparison.
