Frugal woman dies at 100, donates $35.6M

While looking at an article about former classmate who is a tattooed librarian, I saw the article about a frugal woman who donated $35.6 million when she died at age 100.
Dodson’s husband had held a stake in a limestone quarry, which went to her after his death in 1949. While she could have afforded a more lavish lifestyle, she instead saved money by living in a small condo and refusing in-home care until she was nearly 100, Kubit said.
I wonder what else she did to save money?
