    I am handing it to my toddler and saying “this is important, don’t lose it”.

    Detective has a zero percent chance of ever finding it.

    My house was built in the early 1900s and was used to secretly store and distribute liquor to the town and surrounding areas during prohibition… that money is as good as mine.

      What you dont know is that the detective is from your home town, is 118 years old and was drunk as a skunk during those years.

      Hobbling centurian drunk detective is gonna getcha.

        118 years old? Well, in that case, all I have to do it put the paperclip upstairs. Without one of those stair climber chair lifts, I doubt he’d even be able to get up there to look for it.

    If I’m allowed to straighten it, I’d straighten it and then poke it into one of those small holes in the back of the inside of a microwave oven.

    Step 1: Unplug a network cable from my switch in the basement.
    Step 2: Run up to the loft and open the chimney access hatch.
    Step 3: Figure out which cable i unplugged, and pull it up 3-4 meters.
    Step 4: Straighten out the paperclip and stick it inside the insulation of the cable.
    Step 5: Drop the cable back down into the chimney and reconnect it.

    Yes, I use my otherwise unused chimneys for cable runs.

    Turn off the power to the house

    Stick the paperclip in an outlet

    Turn on power to the house

    When the detective goes to grab the paperclip, he dies, you take the 100k

    Not saying. Any half-decent paperclip detective will read this thread.
