From www.MentalFloss.com:
Expecting to move into 90-year-old Jeanne Calment's apartment upon her death,
Andre-Francois Raffray was 47 when he agreed to pay 2,500 francs a month in
1965. But Raffray died at the age of 77 and Calment went on to become the oldest
woman in history, dying at 122 after Raffray had paid Calment more than double
the apartment's market value over 30 years.
