The Shed Cash

Do you walk into the house and tell them?

The Shed Cash

You are cleaning out your uncle's shed after his funeral. Stuffed inside a rusty paint tin, you find twenty thousand pounds in crisp notes. Nobody else knows it is there. Your siblings are currently in the house, arguing over who gets his worthless car.

Do you walk into the house and tell them?

Then ask

  • How long do you wait to spend it if you keep it?
  • Who is the first person you tell?

The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
