People should be more frugal in the process of making money, save the money, or invest it, so as to generate more money.

However, it is not a good habit to be frugal blindly. Some people have suffered a tragedy in their lives because of being frugal. Among them is an old man who eats pickles every day and is never willing to spend money for medical treatment when she is sick. treatment, and the cash left behind after death is even more surprising!
The old man mentioned above lived in a very ordinary Dawang Village in Pingxiang, Jiangxi Province. After her death, she counted the cash she left behind. Six people counted it. It took 3 hours to complete the count. The old man actually saved 870,000 yuan in his life. It is really surprising that he could save so much money in a very ordinary mountain village. This old lady, whose name is Wang Tiancai, is very frugal in her daily life, but people are very curious. If she is so frugal, what is her daily life like? Let's learn more about it together.
This old lady lived alone and was only 77 years old. However, she passed away due to a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. After someone in the village found out that she was dead, they went to the village committee and then... Immediately, I notified her relatives and friends to come and collect the belongings, but when I was sorting it out, I discovered that there was a large amount of cash in the old lady's room, and it was not a small amount, so I asked the bank to send six people to specially count the cash, and these cash Most of them were small change, and it took three hours to count them. One pound was more than 870,000 yuan. The impression left by the old lady on the villagers was that she was very frugal. Nowadays, there are such a large number of The funds also surprised everyone in the village committee, so they quickly called the police and asked the police to find out relevant information about this lady.
Wang Tiancai’s daily life
According to the description of the villagers, this old lady has no daily income, and lives a very simple life, and her daily meals are also very casual. A bowl of pickles can last for several days, but I haven’t eaten any meat or fruit at all, so the old lady’s daily frugality is probably a key point of this huge sum of money! In addition, the old lady's husband also left a sum of savings, because her husband was engaged in funeral drumming during his lifetime. Over time, he also saved part of the money. Unfortunately, the husband passed away early, and the money he earned was also They were all left to the old lady.
Finally, the old lady never goes to the hospital to see a doctor when she gets sick, and she never spends money to buy medicine or treatment, because she thinks that going to the hospital costs money, so she never If you don't go to the hospital, you'll just have to wait to recover if you get sick. The cerebral hemorrhage that led to the old lady's death was due to the old lady's thriftiness. She only had pickles for three meals a day, which caused her body to be unable to keep up with the nutrients it needed. She never went to the hospital when she was sick and did not treat her illness in time. She became thin and weak. As it got worse day by day, he finally passed away!
The old lady’s daughter
After understanding, although the old lady currently lives alone, she also had two daughters when she was young, but they both died due to illness. She died prematurely and never had any more children. Some people even said that the old lady and her husband were both childish. This statement was really a blow to the old lady and the government, so they never had any more children. The two lived very harmoniously, but due to an accident, the husband passed away first, leaving the old lady alone in this world.
People in the village also said that the old lady didn’t like to interact with others, she often walked alone, often ate pickles, her mental state was not very good, she often coughed, and she did not go to the hospital for treatment. Such a so-and-so It is quite reasonable for a frugal person to leave such a huge sum of money after his death, and most of the cash is change. It can be seen that these are all saved by the old lady on a daily basis, but the old lady After saving for a lifetime and leaving a huge sum of more than 870,000 yuan, he passed away in the end. It was very sad to have no luck and be able to use this money.

However, people have developed this habit and may not be able to change it.
In fact, everyone hopes to have more wealth to meet their own life needs. However, wealth does not come out of thin air, nor can it be created by consumption, but through our daily life.
