<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 410460, member: 15309&quot;]I have a story about safe deposit boxes, but not at a bank.</p><p><br /></p><p>I work in an Atlantic City casino and we have safe deposit boxes available for hotel guests.&nbsp; Every 5 years we inventory the safe deposit boxes.&nbsp; Undoubtedly we find boxes that have no key, but the last person who had the box has checked out of the hotel.&nbsp; In these cases, we drill the boxes and seize the contents.&nbsp; Most boxes are either empty or contain something silly.&nbsp; One guy wrote on a piece of paper &quot;your casino took my money, I&#039;m keepin the key.&quot;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>However, every so often you find something.&nbsp; We drilled one box and found almost $100,000 in cash (all Benjamins).&nbsp; We frantically searched to find the last card for that box and only found a card that was over 3 years old.&nbsp; We looked at the customer&#039;s casino play and he did not have any in the past year, but he had a $50K credit line.&nbsp; Desperate, we called the phone number in our system.&nbsp; The man lived in Georgia.&nbsp; When he answered, I asked him if he still had the key to the box.&nbsp; He said of course.&nbsp; I then asked him if he was aware that he had almost $100K in the box.&nbsp; He again said of course.&nbsp; A little peeved, I asked him why he would leave that much money in a hotel safe deposit box.&nbsp; He responded with a chuckle and a very smart response of &quot;where do you want me to put it, in a bank.&quot;&nbsp; Tired of his nonsense, I told him he had a week to retrieve his money or we would keep it (totally bluffing, that would be illegal). He flew in the next day, took his cash and left.&nbsp; Didn&#039;t even lose any of it in the casino.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
