Reading a story like this I ask myself “how much money is enough?” Geeze...you can live very comfortably indeed on 5 million in most parts of the country.In some parts of the country you’d need more.....10 or maybe even 15 million.Manhattan,I suspect,is such a place.So why bother rob the woman...your own mother...of money that you need never spend?
Because by leading a certain lifestyle you can spend $10 million in Manhattan in a single year. It’s not easy and requires a lot of hard work, but it can be done.
I guess it depends on what you mean by "comfortable". I live quite well on a whole lot less than that. I don't have a maid or a butler or a gardener but I don't want them either. Well, I could use a little help in the fall at canning time but just try finding an illegal alien when you really need one.
Yes he is 83. Assuming he started on this in his late 70’s how much longer did he plan to live to spend all that money?
