      Sunny, breezy and incredibly noisy as I live right off of a busy street and people are getting off work for the week.

    Love that Brief Case made a guestplay. His channel is one of my favourites for his dedication to include the general social and economic conditions in society as a whole in which his story about the specific persons take place.❤

    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.

    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.

    Hello Forgotten Lives, thank you for another spectacular video. Having Brief Case narrating in the first story, and Mortis Media in the second story was a pleasant surprise. You and Brief Case have such interesting content and Mort's spooky, a pleasurable listening experience. 😊

    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.

    I was on the fence about “little Gloria. Maybe because my mom was big Gloria, in another place. This piece made it clear rich people use money as a tool to manipulate.

      @alspence did he hoard a massive amount of money, preventing anyone else from being able to use it? Her spending that money would have helped countless people. This is why trickledown economics doesn't work, the rich just sit on the money.
