A family in Sohag governorate’s Gerga city found a fortune of an estimated LE22 million in the bank account of patriarch Salah, 63, following his death. The son went to the bank and discovered that his father was a millionaire, hoarding his wealth his entire time. Salah’s family never felt that the father owned any money. He had succeeded in concealing his great wealth from his family and the people of his village for many years. The family remains unable to believe their new fortune, and has currently received 10 proposals from villagers eager to marry Salah’s daughter.
