What is the largest sum of money you have lost?
I recieved cash for my birthday and it was put in an envelope in a big plastic bag that had all my other gifts. My mom came into my room did something with the bag and now the money is gone and I feel sad :(

My husband lost over 2,000.00 We went to cash his check then walmart to pick up a few things. Well we got all the way out the door and he told me he had to go back in to get something that he forgot, I tried to talk him out of going back telling him we could just get it later, but he would not listen. So I walked on to the car and he went in. A few minutes later he came up to the car with a dozen roses for me. I was so happy, then we carried the kids to eat and when he went to pay he barely scraped up enough money to pay for our food. i asked what the deal was and he told me all the money was gone, he lost it at walmart when he paid. We went back to walmart and for days we called to see if it was found or if we could look at the tape from the time we were there. We had no luck. He had to find some side jobs to make money. He is so proud he wouldn't accept help so when a preacher offered to help he wouldn't take it. The gas company wanted to cut our gas off over 15 dollars, they wouldn't extend it. He cut trees for somebody but when he got 4 cords cut for the guy he told him that his wife would only let him pay him 100 for all it. We had a very hard time for the next two weeks. but we did make it and were just fine. When we got home I just hugged him and told him not to worry. how could I be mad when he bought me roses just because? Now a couple of years later we laugh about it. I always tell him that maybe it went to somebody who needed it at least.

One of my mutual funds dropped $30,000 during the tech bubble burst of the late '90. It's still small compared to all I've gained overall in the market and other investments.

First of all ... Mom needs to be replacing that money. What business does she have going into your room and doing anything with the bag. Secondly, I lost a $1,000.00 purse once and $600.00 in cash (the cash wasn't in the purse, two separate occasions). Embarrassingly enough, I have lost $600.00 in cash twice. =(
