By now, you may have heard about the poor woman who lost her US$162 million winning lotto ticket. After making the announcement that she had lost the ticket, the streets were covered with people, shovelling snow in a desperate attempt to find it. People will do anything for money.

Of course, the only way to make this funnier would be if the real winner came forward and it turned out that the ticket was hers in the first place. This is exactly what happened; she has been using the same numbers for years, and has the old tickets to prove it. The original claimant is now being investigated for filing a false police report. Once again, people will do anything for money.
