All of us have a secret place where we hide our cash, but some people are exaggerating with their choice of location. Ovens and microwaves should be definitely the last places to think of when you want to hide your treasure and that lesson has been thoroughly learned by this unlucky man who made a decision like that.

After selling his Toyota Supra for $20,000 one Australian faced a stark choice where to hide his money, without saying that to his wife. Finally, the oven sounded as the perfect place for this man, as he has come up with a conclusion that nobody in his house, including his wife, ever cooked. But, you know, women, they can surprise us at any moment and so has the wife of this unlucky Australian, who decided to use the oven in order for lunch to be prepared. And yes, along with it, she cooked all the cash.

Shocked, mad, distraught, nervous… We can just guess the feelings that have occupied this misfortunate family. At least, the lesson is learned – you should think twice before selling your Toyota Supra and you definitely need to start sharing some of your secrets with your wife.
I've heard of hiding money in the freezer, but the oven? :headscratch:
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

I guess his wife wasn't very busy in the kitchen and decided to surprise him :D

Also, an electric oven won't harm money, not even paper. Gas might be another story, though, not to mention the good old-fashioned ones heated with firewood. Anyway, a stupid guy. Had I been in his situation I would have put the money on my personal bank account. The only time my wife could see the transactions of it would be after my death, and I wouldn't care about it anymore. Then again I know people who get a shared bank account after getting married as a proof of love. Blah!

The lesson here is obvious.

Never sell your twin turbo supra.

Given money is mostly plastic I'd disagree, especially with a melting point of 130 to 171 °C (according to Wikipedia).

I didn't know money is mostly plastic. I know that they aren't made of wood fibers either, or as someone has said, a dollar bill is closer to your t-shirt than to toilet paper. I've never seen a plastic bill yet, Euros are still made of paper.
