It's amazing the lack of thought immediately after the digging stopped.
They could have had half the value between them, yet would have ended up with less than that,
going down the 'clever' route. This is, of course, assuming that the Police don't get interested,
and they couldn't have done anything with any money they got because the Taxman will find out.
If they'd used their brains, right now they could be heroes, doing lectures at detecting clubs,
have helped in the story of this island nation, and they could have done doughnuts outside the tax office in ferraris
and the taxman wouldn't have been able to do anything.
Instead, they are known as greedy twats, and have nothing to show for it, not even their liberty....
All this type of story does is increase one's resolve to keep doing things properly,
and it brings a lump to my wallet.
