BERLIN (Reuters) – A German businessman lost more than 10,000 euros ($13,000) in a plastic bag after forgetting the cash in a public toilet, authorities said on Thursday.

Hesse state police said the man took the "five-figure" sum with him as he stopped to relieve himself in a motorway service station near Haiger in western Germany. He then drove off.

A police spokesman said it was not clear why the man took half an hour to notice his loss -- by which time the money had gone.

What a nightmare, I mean losing the most precious possession in the world: money

This is why I don't count my money in public places! I can't feel remotely sorry for this person at all. If I had anywhere near that amount of money, I would go directly to where I needed to spend it, get the product that I am purchasing, and go directly home with it.
