[quote=Anonymous]Not me personally, but a tale of two great aunts. Neither ever married. The older one died at 95 after working close to 60 years. She was notoriously frugal to the point of martyrdom. After a series of strokes in her early 90s, she went into an excellent private nursing home that she paid forentirely out of pocket. Within two years, she was dead. Her sister (13 mos younger) worked until 60 but always wore gorgeous clothes, threw great parties, and spent the last 30 years of her life traveling. She ended up in a publicly funded nursing home. It was just okay, but she died about two years later as well. [/quote]
