Treasure Hunt...Like a Pirate

So this isn't a question, but I thought some of you regulars would get a kick out of it. We also do consumer lending in FL and we had a closing in Orlando yesterday. The listing agent had been doing some inappropriate stuff throughout the process. Our closing went well, but instead of leaving a lock box on the house for the selling/buyer's agent or leaving a key with the closing agent, Long John Silver the Listing Agent buries the key in the front yard. Who does that? All is well. After taking 20 paces from the palm tree, then 10 paces North to the garden gnome, and some digging, they found it. I just thought it was too silly not to share. Happy investing everyone!

Hopefully the title company played along and buried his commission check 20 paces from their front door!
