Yes, knock the curb off and jam your spade underneath the roots. Dib dab of cement, boom. Definitely worth it. Nothing to lose at the least.
Is it worth the effort to save an old lady? I love her.

It could turn out to be a nice project, even if it is going to be complicated, I think if I managed to get this stump out, I will try to cut the whole thing low enough afterwards to remove all the stiff parts.

Man, the entire world has been locked down to save old ladies. If you can save another, go for it! They deserve it, even if they did nothing more than just sitting there being pretty.

UPDATE:
Good news; old lady is going to be saved!
Bad news; she is not going to be mine!
Neighbour just called saying his wife will kill him if anything drastic happens to her Bougainvillea, so he decided to move it to his main garden and take good care of the three.
I am happy because it will not be killed, relieved because I don't have to lift it up, sad because it will not be a bonsai.
NOTE: I want to thank each and every one that helped, you guys rock!
And in the end I think maybe @rockm was right: better be a full glorious bougie than a so-so struggling bonsai.

Whaaat! After you basically promised me a nice large bougie? This is so unfair.

As you must be aware, that is not the only big bougie in Brazil. It's one among many.
So I keep my promise if you pay for the shipping...

Aha! Incredible! very nice trunk!
Aww I’m sad that it won’t be going to you especially after all the thought process you have put into rescuing her. Ah well at least she will live!
