Finders keepers?

I wonder how many Colombian Farmers watched Narcos on Netflix and started digging around on their farms.

 

This story is almost a scene right out of the series.

 

I was thinking the same thing. He shot his two friends over that money didn't he?

I loved the 30/30 about Pablo and Columbia. The guy had money buried in his walls.

I think so. I read last night that he lost millions if not billions to Rats, water damage and mold. At one point was spending $2500 a month just on rubber bands to bundle his money. And when he's was on the run his son said he burned a 100 million or more in a fire trying get to keep his family warm.

 

I guess he really did have cash to burn :lol2:

To report or not report that is the question.

Escobar had to spend $2500+ a month on buying rubber bands to keep the cash together.

 

And apparently he lost something like 3 million dollars (guessing off of memory) per year because rats literally starting eating away at the cash. It's unbelievable.

This is one of the most amazing statistics ever.

Just told my wife about my lifelong dream to become a farmer in Columbia

Escobar was undoubtedly one of the most powerful dudes in the world for a time.

 

The 30 for 30 was great, as is a documentary about him that occasionally airs on History or Discovery channel...can't remember which one.

"Killing Pablo" was a very good History Channel doc from back when they weren't so caught up on Ancient Aliens.
