Ernest's life did not go out large as he lived. It was quiet, in an area where no one would find his burial grounds for quite some time and for years the public had no idea that he had committed suicide. Killing himself at 61 seemed to have cut a brilliant man's life very short when he was beginning to become famous worldwide. Read on to see what you think. Mark Twain liked giving his speeches and traveling as he made much more money and much more quickly. He was terrible with finances and went bankrupt at one point in his life but soon got his families footing back on solid ground. Of real interest, you will find he had two loves in his life. One who married him and stood by his side no matter what and one who came to him only in his dreams but was as real as anyone living that he kept correspondence with even after being married.
