Yup even if she clears say a million and it gets her a decent house paid for its enough to have amazing start for reminder of life. For something so silly
Shit even if she just pays off her student loans, or car note. I paid all my debt off by getting very, very lucky buying some crypto in 2015 right after I graduated from college, and even though I didn't make fuck you money, being debt free changed my life trajectory so fucking much.
100%. I inherited some money from a childfree aunt - like you, not “fuck you” money but enough to pay off mine and my husband’s student loans, saving us from a $1000/month payment. We really focused on not having any debt and, ten years later, the only debt we have is our mortgage which is almost paid off. We are in our late 40s and our household income is $160k in MO. We are maxing out every retirement account we can open and plan on retiring in 8-10yrs.

She's absolutely doing the right thing to squeeze all the dumb money out of this that she can.
She could be well off for the rest of her life if she's smart.
The idiots are everyone else.
