POINTS AND FIGURES: There Is Gold In The Crumbs.
Spending time with my wife’s family, I heard some stories about those crumbs.
They had an aunt who had never been married. There were seven grandchildren associated with this aunt. When this aunt passed away, she left $7000 apiece to each of the grandchildren. That’s just crumbs isn’t it? Only a pittance, 7G.
What’s interesting is the stories. One family member funded an IRA with it. She has money to retire. Two others used it as the down payment on a house. They rolled that investment into bigger houses and places for their families.
Those crumbs add up.
Even a small infusion of capital, intelligently deployed, can make a huge difference.
