Paid in Full - Haiku

He knew all prices

But the value of nothing

Twas an empty life

Definitely an epitaph to be

Definitely an epitaph to be avoided; and a very effective Senryu.  I applaud your respect for the traditional 5/7/5 format.  The word "twas" sounds top archaic, and more appropriate substitutes are available; but the poem is still quite effective and very much to the point.
