Dick Hanscom forwarded this article from the Daily Mail about an unusual place to strike gold.

Armed police were called on board the plane which had flown from Dubai to Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka where they recovered the gold weighing about 32kg. Cleaners stumbled across the bullion when they were cleaning the plane's bathroom. Custom officials said they knew the bars were on board and believe the person carrying them sensed there was a police presence and abandoned the gold in the toilet of the aircraft before fleeing the scene.
