The discovery was made by a construction worker yesterday (9 March 2009), which he initially thought was a bomb, but actually contained cash.
The construction worker intended digging a six-metre hole for a drainage system in Edenvale when he found a medium-sized cooler box buried deep down,” said Ekhuruleni Metro Police spokesman Kobeli G Mokheseng.
I wonder what I’d have done if I found something like that? And I wonder, if that guy had the guts to open the cooler box, would he have kept the money, or notified the police?
I’d have been extremely tempted to keep the money had I found it!! Though I’m not sure if I would be able to live with my conscience, or the permanent fear of being caught out.

I wonder what the laws are there concerning found money… I’d be concerned the money was illegal and that the owners would try to find him afterwards.
