@reko Man, this is awesome!

It's amazing what people throw away. I've been guilty of letting things go, especially while moving from place to place.

I live in Japan and I've been reading more and more in the news about cash that is being found in the trash by garbage collecters. 2 times this year more than $400,000 was found in garbage.

Often times this is happening is the elderly are dying, cash that was unknown and stashed in the house is left.
