Misplaced decimal point fails to change couple's life for the better

A tip for you: if you deposit $1,772.50 at the bank and then notice that the bank has registered your deposit as being for $177,250, do not withdraw the money, quit your job, and move to another state. This is the sort of thing that banks will, eventually, figure out. Take Randy and Melissa Pratt's case, which ended in their arrest, as a cautionary tale.
