Ten years have passed, thousands of brave people have ventured to search the Rocky Mountains, but to no avail.
The exact location of the treasure was not disclosed, but millionaire Fenn said: “The treasure chest is under the lush vegetation of the Rocky Mountains and has not moved from its original location since I hid it. more than 10 years ago. I don’t know the man who found the treasure, but the word in my book helped him get to the right place.”
A few days ago, an anonymous man said that he had found a treasure. This person confirmed it by sending the millionaire Fenn a photo of his findings. Unidentified, the man said he came from the “eastern” United States.
When asked about his current feelings, the millionaire said he was half-happy, half-sad because it was finally “over.”
“I congratulate the thousands of wonderful people who have joined the search over the last 10 years and hope they make new discoveries,” said the “eccentric” millionaire.
Previously, in an autobiography published in 2010, the millionaire had published clues to the location of the treasure in a 24-line poem.
the idea came to him when he was diagnosed with kidney cancer in 1988 and had a 20 percent survival rate. After overcoming an illness, he decided to bury part of his fortune in the Rocky Mountains and undertook this hunt. this is how he inspires people to explore nature.
Millionaire Fenn said that some 350,000 people around the world have embarked on this treasure hunt. Some people even leave their joƄs behind and leave their homes to spend time hunting. Among them, at least 5 people died.
