This might be one of the most painful articles I have read in a long time. A guy finds 280 gold bars sitting in a cave out in the middle of the Utah desert and what does he do? Leaves it there and calls the government. I wanted to slam my forehead against a brick wall.

Personally, I don't believe he found anything. He probably started it as a joke, but now that he has started all of this, there is no way he can turn it back, so he's just hiding.

Or, he is a FREAKING MORON!!!!! WHY would you tell anybody?!!?

How is this any different than the couple who found all of the gold coins in northern california a few years ago. Yes the coins were on their property but the coins didnt belong to them. They were allowed to keep them.

And he didn't take one single bar as proof. Or even a picture? Something smells fishy!

Nobody could be that stupid!
Maybe a Colonel Harlan "bernie" Sanders type..
KFC..blah!

He counted out 280 bars but couldn't take a picture or even bring a single one back? The BS meter is pegged.

My bad. I did a google search limited to the past month only and this showed up. I hadn't seen it before. Anyway, a valuable lesson for sure.

Maybe there were 480 gold bars when he first found the cave.

Were they in a blue kettle?

I believe the story and believe the man is not a treasure hunter. My stomach hurts after reading # 1. Only if one of us found the gold. Good luck and good hunting.

 

[boogeyman]

If this is a true story, my next question would be did he trip over his IQ? Awww what would we do for entertainment without folks like this............

 

[Honest Samuel]

I believe the story and I agree with the man that we believe that the state or federal government take it all. If it was me, I take it all and hid the bars in my cellar. Of course, I would pay state and federal income taxes being honest.

The laws in the U.S. these days are garbage when it comes to treasure hunting. They are all written in ways to ensure the finder is entitled to jack doodly. The gov official said if the bars are clearly stamped the army can claim all of it. Better believe the gov will be left in the pitch dark if i ever find anything. In to the furnace they go
