This guy has hidden $1 million worth of Jewels to be found by solving clues in his fairy tale book.

It makes me want to buy the book and get cracking.

lol that\'s cool. Knowing how greedy people are I\'m sure he\'ll get more money than $1M from book sales. Great idea!

I bet the book is painful to read through

There was something very similar to this in the UK about 20 years ago to find a golden rabbit buried somewhere in the country. I had the book but the riddles and clues were mind boggling.

:eek: I wanna read it!!!

Yeah wtf, there probley arn\'t any jewels.

It is a genius scam though!

I don\'t think it\'s a scam, just an expensive publicity gimmick.

A nice gimmick as well... he\'ll probably get it back 10 fold. And in a couple of years he could always take the stones back himself, and say someone else found them.

Well......if their hidden in places that you don\'t have to move anything and theyre in public areas, than isn\'t there a good chance of some randomn person who never heard of the book finding them?

That\'s the first thing that came to my mind too. They\'re either extremely obvious or the clues and riddles are just that tough to understand.

That is a pretty interesting idea. It does make me want to buy the book.
