When a trio of New York college students
bought a smelly secondhand couch from a charity store for $20 they had no clue
about its real value.
But not long after roommates Reese
Werkhoven, Cally Guasti and Lara Russo got it back to their New Paltz home and
nestled in, they discovered envelopes of cash - $41,000 worth - were stashed in
every conceivable crevice of the pre-loved find.
'When we were in the bedroom our
neighbours thought we won the lottery or something ‘cause we were just
screaming,' Guasti said of the shock April discovery.
They however knew the money wasn’t theirs
and so did the right thing and got in touch with the owner of the money who had
written her name on one of the envelopes.
They eventually found the woman who
rewarded them with $1,000.
$41,000 is the equivalent of almost
N7,000,000. Would you have returned the money if you had been the one who found
it?
