Why would you do such a thing?
 

Bury money under a giant "W." Why not just deposit it in the bank? You don't make interest when your money is under the ground.

I suppose they could have buried it under a giant V, less trees needed also?

Isn´t it a X ?
I thought a X was the common sign used for burying stuff ?

WTF is this about? http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo.../confused1.gif

Is this related to a news story in some way or a question?

Either way it's simple. People don't put money in a bank when they are trying to dodge paying income (or similar) tax.

Farmers used to do it all the time I've heard.

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World!

Heck, maybe they just didn't trust the banks? Good call with some of them after the last couple of years.
