This Guy Purchased A Tank On Ebay, But Didn’t Know It Contained A Fortune

What Curse Is This?

These odd and off-the-beaten-path finds, discoveries and treasures usually come as a complete surprise. The explorer never hoped or really planned to find them, though there is that element of metal detection that does come into play with some of these treasure stories.

Still, the treasures were left by someone, whether family, friend or a complete strange. And, it’s not difficult to imagine that the person who left it probably intended to return for it someday. There’s that element of lost connections, and the dream of what all that money can do for the adventurer who happens to find it. Like so many of the tales about the pirates and their ill-gotten loot, though, treasure also continually carries with it a curse. Just look at all the bad luck, hard feelings and lost opportunities that seem to erupt around those who decide to keep the gold. If there really is a curse for treasure hunters, perhaps you should take care when you seek out all those treasures that are just waiting to be found.
