    Love that you worked alongside Brief Case! Along with Forgotten Lives, Brief Case, The Crime Reel & That Chapter are my go to for true stories. You all have voices I could listen to for hours xx
    Bit of an edit:- I don't recognise the voice narrating about Henrietta Robinson, but he is very easy on the old ears. Clear diction. Lovely.

    18:33 I think it's worth noting that Hetty Green had to pay her husband's (Edward) debts, which amounted to $702,000. Adjusted for inflation, that's somewhere in the ballpark of $22,000,000 in 2023. I don't care how easily you may be able to pay that off, that's a lot of money to pay to get someone else out of debt.
    I'm glad you mentioned they reconciled later in life. After Edward passed away, he was buried in a burial ground that only interred Episcopalians. Hetty was a lifelong Quaker. So she converted and became an Episcopalian just so that she could be buried next him.

    If my Mother's meanness had cost me a leg in childhood, I'd have thoroughly enjoyed spending her precious money too! I hadn't heard of her before. Gliding stinkily through the gilded age.

    • @peggypeggy4137
      @peggypeggy4137 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I seem to remember her from the Guinness Book of World's Records. She made the list as the cheapest woman in history. I recognize that picture of her in that old, stinky, tattered dress but I I never realized how truly sick she was. I'm glad that her son had at least a few years to enjoy that wealth.
