About This Quote

The story about how the first rubber ball smacked her in the head and made her brains rattle in her skull, she knew that something about this dodgeball game was different is about a girl named Mary Ellen McCormick. She was born in 1912 to a poor family, but after she died at the age of 106, she left an estate of almost 1 million dollars. The reason she was able to amass such a fortune was because she had an incredibly productive life as well as a unique perspective on money. For example, before she died, she said that “The happiest moment of my life is when I handed over $1 million dollars to my attorney after he died.” Even though she didn’t have much at the beginning of her life, she still managed to learn and grow and eventually become one of the richest people in America.
