Million Dollar Note

I spotted a million dollars sitting in a tip jar today!

Well, it’s not often that one comes across a million dollars.

Yet today as I stared into the tip jar of a Melbourne cafeteria, two Australian million dollar notes were staring right back at me!

Of course these two beauties are fakes but they sure gave me a good laugh.

Some quick internet searching reveals that there are quite a few “million dollar note” manufacturers in Australia.

The note that I found in the tip jar had a picture of Ned Kelly on it and appears to be the work of One Million Tracts, a Christian bookshop. The note apparently contains Biblical verse within the fine print. United Christian Broadcasters are also selling a gospel-themed million dollar note, but theirs contains the image of a Digger in his slouch hat.

Competing with One Million Tracts is MyFirstMillion.com.au, who manufacture a somewhat less-convincing note sporting the image of a generic gentleman in a suit and tie in front of a map of New Holland. An identical note is also being offered for sale by Gloo & VektaHaus, whomever they may be.

Next time you’re out and about, take a careful look at the money you see sitting in tip jars. You might just spot your first million too!
