“It’s nothing compared to superyachts, but I treated this lady at home years ago. She was getting help for a recent hip fracture. I was there to help her with her personal care, cooking, etc. This lady’s house was amazing: three stories high, like an old Victorian place. It was beautiful. I was helping her shower the first day, drying her off. I asked where her laundry basket was and she said to me, “Oh, throw it away. “This woman was actually throwing away her towels after every use. And I’m not talking about the Walmart towels. I looked them up and they are $58 a towel!”
“And that was 10 years ago. She was a very kind woman, completely naive about people who lived paycheck to paycheck. It was wild. She had this “old money”. Never married, no children. She donated it to the nonprofit I eventually started working at, caring for disabled children. She was one of the few patients I had in home care who I followed up with once she was better. She just had no idea about money. When she died a few years ago, she left all of her enormous wealth to this nonprofit. Oh, and I may or may not have taken these towels home with me. 😏”
