Would You Be So Stupid?

Post by fountainhall »

A man driving in a pick-up truck in Grand Haven, Michigan had an accident. No, not a collision. The driver had been carrying $30,000 in a cardboard box. Now if you or I were carrying that much cash, you'd think we'd look after it with our lives. This guy obviously has money to burn for he had probably stopped, left the cardboard box on his back bumper (fender) and then driven off. Thereafter the road rained money. By the time the police arrived, only $2,470 was left. Passers by had picked up another $4,630 and handed it to the police.

Investigative journalism stopped there. $30,000 is a lot of hard cash. We have no idea know where that money came from nor what its purpose was. I'd have thought that was as much interest to the cops as having the money returned. One for GB's "I don't get it" list, I reckon.

Definitely.

I doubt you'd find very many people in Thailand who have that much money to begin with . . .
