Kobe, a kid working a summer construction job in Belgium whose crew found a buried stash of gold worth €9M or 10.5M USD in today’s money, is the inspiration for this question. I’m assuming in that event, half goes to the property owner and it’s 4 construction workers and a foreman splitting the other half. The rightful owner has 5 years to claim according to local law. What would you do while you wait that out?
$10 million? what’s a kid gonna do with $5 million? I mean it’s only $1 million! there’s only so much he could do with $50k. maybe he could save the $10k for college funds or something. or he could spend all $1k on a nice TV.
this is always how these things end up when you find $500.
