Quote from Rose in Rose Fights Back
Rose: Well, I just feel overwhelmed. How could this have happened? Charlie and I were so careful with our money. We saved. We never splurged. OK, one year, we went to Chicago to tour the stockyards. But it was our 20th anniversary. We had a romantic trip coming. Dorothy: You must have been the envy of every woman in St. Olaf. Rose: Oh, it was more than the stockyards. We even got to see where Crisco is made. The point is, we thought I'd have enough money for the rest of my life, as long as I had his pension. Now the reality is I probably have enough for only a couple of months.
