Found Money

According to the BBC, in April, US troops found $100million plus 90million euros while searching a house in Baghdad. Also, the week before, they found $650million in the same neighborhood.

All this cash has been flown out of the country "to a secure location for counting purposes" although it also says they counted it in 5 hours. I suppose it's being checked closely for counterfeits, too.

Anyway, the US Central Command said, "Funds will remain secure until a stable government is established in Iraq and will ultimately be returned to the Iraqis to assist in the re-building of their nation."

As someone who will paying, "to assist in the re-building of their nation", for the rest of my life....... I say, well isn't that special.
