Daughter Makes Mother's Nap a Costly One

A woman surnamed Huang took the most expensive nap of her life last Wednesday in Shenzhen special economic zone, Guangdong province.

While she was sleeping, her three-year-old daughter threw 9,500 yuan (about $1,400) worth of banknotes out of the window. The money would have been enough to support the family for at least three months.

Huang lay down for a nap at 11 am, and the money was gone when she woke at 12:30 pm.

Huang, a local businesswoman, determined that her daughter must have thrown the money from their 17th floor balcony after spotting some banknotes there.

A security guard on the ground floor told Huang he had noticed the banknotes falling from the sky. He also said most of the money went into the pockets of passing pedestrians.
