Who is going to put a million into a deposit or saving account? I had no idea Sumter county was so wealthy, where do all these folks hang out?
When I was a teenager I had a part time job as receptionist at an exclusive yacht club. Senior memberships at the club in the 1967 was $36,000 or about $276,000 in today’s money.
The club had 2 types of millionaires; self made, those people who wouldn’t spend 25¢ to rent a towel when they went swimming at the pool, and their kids who inherited the money later. The kids partied hard and jetsetted and basically wasted the old man’s money away like there was no tomorrow. Taught me a lesson.
