This story reminds me of my wife's grandfather. He lived in a trailer, drove an early 1970's dodge aspen, had 1 piece of crap tiny tv.... and so on. Pretty much living in squalor. When he died(1997) he had a shit ton of money in mutual funds. Not quite 4 mil but it was nearing the million mark. In talking with his Merrill Lynch rep, apparently lots of people who grew up in the depression lived exactly like this.
