By the time I'm in my 80s that is the last thing I want to worry about, I plan to have my house paid off in my 40s not my 80s...just doesn't make any sense to me to have a big mortgage left at that age when he surely had alternatives to pay off a house over the last 50-60 years or so-
I thought the same thing. Who has a mortgage at 85? And with one of the longest careers in Hollywood it should have been smooth sailing for him 20 years ago!!! I'll never understand how these mega millionaires end up like that. There has to be either greed or horrible investment advice for years and years. I guess you reap what you soe (sow?)
