Default $2.5M check sent to the wrong person

$2.5M check wrongly sent to counselor - Yahoo! News from the Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS - An errant computer keystroke led the state to accidentally issue a $2.5 million check to a school counselor.

The best part?

Walker, along with a man she lived with, allegedly bought a $500,000 certificate of deposit, funded two retirement accounts, bought a $500,000 Treasury bond, spent $5,500 on jewelry, $3,817 at Best Buy and $2,069 on limousine services, according to the criminal complaint.

If the 2.5 mil had actually been hers, I would've said she was pretty smart with it!
