Money makes the world go round, as the old saying goes.
We could all use a little extra money, but imagine becoming a millionaire overnight! Maybe you find a family treasure hiding in your closet that could make you a lot of money.
For one man, buying a storage unit changed his life completely.
According to Dan Dotson, a star from the show Storage Wars and an auctioneer, a client bought a storage unit that was thought to be abandoned for just $500. If a storage unit hasn’t been paid for three months in a row, it can be auctioned off—something fans of the show already know.
On the show, people buy random storage units hoping to find something valuable inside.
One man opened his newly bought unit and found another safe inside, which had an incredible $7,500,000 in cash!
Dan Dotson shared this amazing story in a 2018 YouTube video. He explained that the man didn’t get to keep all the money because of an unfortunate situation.
In the three-minute video, Dan mentioned that a woman approached him at an event and said a family friend had bought a storage unit he auctioned off. Everyone was shocked to hear about the piles of cash inside.
The new owners of the unit then received a surprise call from the original owner’s lawyer, who offered them $600,000 to return the unit, cash included. They even raised the offer to $1.2 million!
The new owners chose to return the unit and the money, which left them with a profit of $1,199,500. Not a bad deal!
Dan believed that returning the cash was the right choice because they didn’t know where the money had come from in the first place.
This unusual story led to a lot of discussion in the YouTube comments, where people shared their opinions on what they would have done.
One person asked, “If there was that much money in the safe, why did they stop paying for the unit?”
Another commenter said, “I’d take their offer and be on my way, thanking the good Lord for the blessing,” while someone else agreed, “Take the offer. It’s the right thing to do.”
A fourth person suggested, “Keep the money and run. I wouldn’t have told anyone in the first place.”
Another commenter added, “I couldn’t sleep at night knowing my money was just sitting in a locker. And is that money taxable? If it is, I’d be gone—new name, new life with $7 million!”
