People saying “Whats the point of saving all that $$$ when you’re not spending it” well she owns her house, owns her car and spends it travelling. All of us are still broke and in debt. Sounds like people are jealous of her. I’m 22 and want to be like her. I bet she sleeps very well at night knowing she is so secure financially.

1.2 million is plenty to retire at 54 i'd say. Idk what type of income you're used to, but you could easily take 5% annually from your money (assuming it's in some sort of index/mutual fund) and keep it growing until you die. That's 60k a year.

If you make it to 77 and you are in good health, there is ever reason to believe that you'll make it to your mid-90's. Given that she'll probably never work again, that has to potentially last her another 18 years. And, those miracle prescriptions that they develop to keep us in super health can be $500-1200/month until the patents expire and generics come out.

I’m 50 in a similar predicament but I’m not letting most of my money sit in a savings account making barely nothing. Money doesn’t buy happiness but it is security . You should spend it once in a while and enjoy life but be disciplined. I have a paid mortgage and no debt. I still work. I like to be productive. I have less in the bank but some liquidity and have more invested in different portfolios some in single stocks, mutual funds( large caps, mid caps, and pacific mutuals.) bonds. Also maxed out what my employer will match me for a retirement vehicle that’s offered. Money helps in life but should be used wisely as a tool in a tool box and well cared for but not worshipped.

Get older and sicker, and give all the money away to the doctors and pharmacy companies? Everyone enjoyed the money except her.

Her not thinking about being a millionaire -- aka living very simply -- likely is the mindset that led to this amount of cash in the first place! Good for her!!

Becky6066 I wouldn’t follow this lady. Think about. She’s 77, no husband, no kids, and has more money than she knows what to do with. That means she saved and saved all her life so that the banks can enjoy her money, everyone enjoyed it but her. Sure, she can travel and have fun now but she’s 77, she can’t have the same kind of fun she would’ve had when she was in her 30’s and 40’s. I think this is a sad case and not inspiring. What’s the point of saving money all your life to have nothing to do with it, no one to share it with, and have never enjoyed it?

I disagree. I agree she should spend a bit of money but her habits was what made her rich in the first place. Spending money doesn't always make people happy. Having piece of mind and not have money issues is what makes people happy. Being able to do what you want to do make's you happy but it doesn't mean you have to always spend money to achieve it. I travel but I always budget and have reasonable price heavy foods. When you get older, things change and you might not want to spend as much money because you don't get the enjoyment, you get when you were young.

Some people seem to think you have to be obsessed with money to end up with a million dollars when actually it's just something that happens naturally if you live below your means. I'm retired with a net worth well over a million. I've lived on four continents (very frugally) and traveled in over 20 countries. I never made anywhere near as much money as this lady, but I prefer to cook at home and live simply. I'm generous with my money and if there is something I want to buy, I buy it. Believe me, there is nothing sad about having plenty of money in old age. Live below your means people. I'm also a leftwing nutjob or whatever rude epithet it is Dave calls us.

I am a 20 year old from Canada and although I am living on welfare I pinch as many pennies as I can and every month I put at least 70$ aside into a savings account! Helen is a role model and definitely something I am striving for! And even when I get a job...which I pray is soon...I plan on sticking to my budget which is 1181 dollars a month for rent, food, bills and i usually put some of that into savings...i have kind of created a little game of it to see how much I can put down so lets say i have extra expenses that month (parking pass) and I only have 40$ set aside for my savings ill try and put about 170$ extra to that but know that I have at least some money going in..either way once I get a job I will use the 1181 and anything else I will put right into my savings :-) I am just so thankful I have no debt! I took a break from school when I started to be unable to get by until I can earn some money to go back :-) #nodebt #saver
