A woman who inherited $250,000 from her late grandmother has revealed how she quit her job, blew through the money and now lives in a rental home.

Sarah Faith Jacobson, a 40-year-old corporate consultant in Texas, said after she received the large amount of money she had no idea what to do with it, and 'regrets' how she spent it.

She became a “lactation counselor” after getting her women’s studies” degree. Loser, loser, loser, loser. Sad but predictable.

/What a wonderful tribute to her grandmother.

Thank God there is NO ONE in my family who is that corrupt.

I had that much in the bank pre Chomo Joe. But luckily I have been unburdened by what has been and had to dip in to that money to live.

And $250,000 is not a lot of money in the Bay Area. You might be able to buy a cardboard box behind Lucky’s with that much.
