6. Family Finds Bags Stuffed with $1M Lying on Road
Location: Virginia’s Caroline County
Year Found: 2020 Estimated Value: $1 million*
Although it may seem like a pretty unglamorous pastime, one family found that picking up trash on the side of the road paid off. A family thought the two white sacks they saw on the side of the road in Virginia were trash. They tossed the “trash” bags into the rear of their car, determined to clean up what they believed to be litter.
$1M Found by the Virginia Family at @WJZ/YouTube
When they opened them, they saw that what they had found was a million dollars, not the leftovers of a litterbug. The family sent the money to the sheriff’s office, which was the correct thing to do. Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear that the funding originated from a flashy or blockbuster-like source. The suitcases apparently fell out of the truck on the route to the bank, and they belonged to the post office.
