1 Million Cash in the Dump
 
http://www.vancouversun.com/Dumped+m...361/story.html

Quoted from the Vancouver sun:

Dumped mattress lands one million cash in trash in Israel




JERUSALEM - A stash of cash landed in the trash when a woman in Israel dumped her mother's mattress not knowing it was stuffed with the equivalent of about one million dollars.

Israeli media reported that the 40-year-old woman showed up at a garbage dump in a panic on Tuesday, looking for the valuable bedding.

She had bought a new mattress for her mother and, wanting the gift to be a surprise, threw away the old one. She then found out the decades-old mattress contained her mother's life savings.

Workers are helping her search the garbage, but have found no sign of the cash so far.

secstasy 06-10-2009 07:03 PM

i'd be so pissed if i was the mom LOL

124Y 06-10-2009 07:20 PM

LOL...why not just deposit the money into a bank...

StylinRed 06-10-2009 07:28 PM

most old people lived through times where banks ate up their money or lived through war time revolutions etc so they feel safer with money at home


the news just said that the police is guarding the trash station making sure no one goes in while they search for the money

Shun Izaki 06-10-2009 07:32 PM

lol, some people just don't trust banks and stuff lol..

but i figure, if you get screwed, chances are, so are 90% of other people XD
