Who was Scrooge's friend when he was young in A Christmas Carol?

Answer 1

Scrooge's friend when he was young in "A Christmas Carol" was Jacob Marley. Marley was Scrooge's business partner and played a significant role in the story as the ghost who visits Scrooge to warn him about the consequences of his selfish ways. Marley's ghost appears to Scrooge wearing chains and lamenting his own greed and lack of compassion in life.

Scrooge had very few close friends during his childhood. The friends he had were fictional characters from the books he read, such as Ali Baba and Robinson Crusoe.

Scrooge and the ghost revisit Scrooge's early childhood when Scrooge spent Christmas alone at his boarding school.
