I had a poor cousin who was trying to make it in acting. For several years she lived in Manhattan in a very very small room that had bed, toilet, lavatory/bath and sm stove, refrigerator. She paid a fortune for the room, and that was in the seventies.
She eventually moved back to NC to help parents and after they died, she inherited over million dollars from childless uncle but lost every bit in the crisis of 2007. About three yrs later, she was killed in car accident in SC. She was smart as hell: Duke graduate and Masters from Penn. I think of her often - as u can tell.
That’s a shame; how did she lose everything in 2007?
