Laughable history 😅🤣😂
Hetty Green...the most stìngy woman in history, her wealth is estimated at more than $2.3 billion. Hetty Greene was born in America in 1835. She was the only daughter of a wealthy businessman.

She inherited from her father a fortune estimated at $7.5 million. When she was twenty-one years old, she moved to live in New York to invest her money in Wall Street and was called the Wìcked Wìtch of Wall Street.

She married a millionaire like herself, but still lived on leftover cakes and broken biscuits in grocery stores and argued to get a free bone for her dog every day!! Hetty Greene was a very mìserable woman. She sewed underpànts when she was 16 years old and did not change them or buy others until the day of her dèath.

She never spent a penny, so it was said that she never used hot water, that she wore a black dress that she did not change until it was completely worn out, and that she lived on eating a pie that cost only two cents.

Hetty caused her son to ampùtate his leg because when he broke it, she delayed treating it because she insisted not to spent no money and kept looking for free medical attention.

Hetty Greene dìed in 1916 at the age of 81 in New York City, and was entered in the Guinness Book of World Records as the “most stingy person in the world.”

The cause of her dèath was a stroke due to a quarrel with her maid because the maid asked for an increase in her meager salary.

She dìed and left behind a huge fortune, and her children did not inherit her extreme stìnginess, but rather they were generous to the point that her daughter built a free hospital with her money!! ☕️

Your narrative is completely opposite to what is out there:

Those around her referred to her as the "Queen of Wall Street, because she lends freely at low interest"

But you changed the whole narrative to "the witch of wall street"

Your point made.

However, she was stingy.

Some people can be generous in one area but tight fisted in other. Her lending at low rates was business.

In some areas of her life, she was stingy

The world is mean and some people in it are even meaner. Hetty Green was a miser with good heart who did not want to be controlled by those who called themselves "Elites". The so called Elites believe (d) one should dress in a particular way because he or she had money. All the stories told about that woman were made up because she was the richest and some people believed and wanted her to be in their class but she refused.

I first read about her in the Guinness Book of Records 1981. Then I was primary school.

I have also come across her story several times since. There's a link below. Take care

This one thinks bribing people is the best way to win elections and not voting by the people, your guy who bribed his way through has plundered your resources by reducing your purchasing power by more than 100% in one year. Not everyone will be smart, some will remain full forever.
