<\/p>\nThe sofa that a family from Michigan purchased used because it was uncomfortable turned out to be full of cash. <\/p>\n
A piece of furniture that had been purchased for a total of $70 was discovered to be concealing more than $43,000!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A man from Michigan named Howard Kirby went to the Habitat for Humanity ReStore in order to buy a sofa. <\/p>\n
He discovered that the sofa’s ottoman was not very comfortable, a month after he brought it home to give it a test. Then, in an attempt to diagnose the problem, <\/p>\n
Kirby’s daughter-in-law decided to unzip the sofa’s footrest and found that it was loaded with cash.<\/p>\n

The Daily Mail claims that after first feeling the need to keep the money and speaking with a lawyer who said Kirby was under no legal need to return the money, <\/p>\n
Howard Kirby made the decision to contact the resale company. According to the attorney, Kirby was under no legal duty to give the money back.<\/p>\n
Kirby requests that the shop look for the original owners of the loaded coach and arranges a meeting with Kim Faith-Newberry, <\/p>\n
the wife of the family who owned it originally. Faith-Newberry claimed that her grandfather had owned the couch and that, <\/p>\n
prior to his death, he had concealed the money therein. A few years prior, her grandfather had gone away.<\/p>\n
After deciding against keeping the money, Kirby claimed to NBC, \u2018The Holy Spirit just came over me and said, ‘No, that’s really not yours.’\u2019<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Even though some might have preferred to keep the money for themselves, Kirby felt compelled by his religious convictions to return it.<\/p>\n
\u2018As a born-again Christian, I want to do what Christ would want me to do,\u2019 he stated to the local TV station MLive. \u2018And I think that’s what he would want me to do.\u2019<\/p>\n
