I would like to know the meaning of "1".
1: She will never be accused of spending a fortune, unless you consider her charitable donations.
She will never be accused of spending a fortune, unless you consider her charitable donations. She grew up in a modest family. She was taught to buy only what she needed and to be cautious about going into debt. And that's exactly how she lived. For 40 years, She taught at an elementary school, and she developed a reputation for living a simple lifestyle. The only times she borrowed money were to purchase a used car, later, a small house. what nobody knew was, every month, she was saving one-third of her paycheck. On the day she retired, she wrote a check for 250,000 to a children's hospital. This modest teacher, with one stroke of her pen, became the most generous benefactor in the hospital's history.
The only people who would criticize her for spending large amounts of money are the people who just look at her donations to charity, and ignore everything else that she spends money on.

This seems to me an ironic statement. Clearly this woman should be praised for her charitable donations rather than accused because of them.
