Hmm... how about stingiest woman? The name Hetty Green comes to mind, a Chicago multimillionaire whose nephew lost his leg after an accident because she spent so much time driving around looking for a FREE clinic. But she died in 1916, leaving a fortune worth a billion in today's dollars before she went to the Great Piggy Bank in the Sky. Does someone have a recent Guinness Book? That's where I found her name and there might be the answer to your question as well.

This man:
-
Probably my grandfather, who passed away in 1998. Would have been buried in a Hefty Bag and put out by the curb if he had his way.
-
My ex-husband.
-
My neighbor. He put all of his cars, houses and money into trusts because as he said "If I someday get married and she divorces me I'll be damed if she'll get a dime!" He has been single without even a girlfriend as long as I've known him. Go Figure!

Of course there was the time a mugger said to Jack Benny, "Your money or your life!" Benny just stood there. The mugger repeated, "I said, your money or your life!" And Benny said "I'm THINKING!" It was the longest laugh ever recorded at a live performance--the audience roared for a full minute.

Well, multimillionaire J. Paul Getty spent hours going over the sales slips for household expenses and washed his own underwear out by hand at night. Might have something to do with his very sad statement, "I'd give all my billions if I could only be happily married." (He was unhappily married, five times.)

There is a well known ex-President who, while soliciting money for charities only claimed a few hundred dollars for charitable donations on his 1040 tax form.......... I'd name him if I could source this for accuracy. You'll just have to appreciate the irony without proof.

John Howard! We all hate him.
