News came to light this week of a Swedish tramp who died a secret millionaire:
Curt Degerman was a financial genius who used the money he earned from collecting scrap metal from rubbish bins to trade on the international markets.
Now 18 months after his death, his relatives are fighting a legal battle over a secret £1 million estate he amassed by investing in stocks and shares.
Maybe all those personal finance blogs that urge you to reuse your eggshells and grow your own popcorn are on to something?
