If I didn't know this guy first hand I would never believe it. A buddy of mine, Matt, was in Washington D.C. with his girlfriend Sara. Well he proposes to her and she says yes. They are all excited and just enjoying each others company while walking up the street. Randomly, a women drives up in an exotic car not for sale in America. She gets out and starts to talk to them. She says 'you guys are a cute couple and I would like to do something nice for you'. She pulls out her checkbook and writes them a check for ONE MILLION DOLLARS! They were completely stunned by this and weren't sure what to do. They accepted of course and the women went on her way. They went to the bank, half expecting this to be a joke but the teller informed them that the check was indeed real and there were sufficient funds to cover the check. The tellers actually told them it wasn't too uncommon for this type of thing to happen in D.C. Some people have all the luck.
