When Paul Fischer checked his bank account Friday night, he had a happy surprise. His balance had exploded to $88,888,888,888.88. A very lucky number indeed, and close to $89 billion.

Of course, the balance was a technical error by SunTrust Bank, which quickly fixed the problem. It also may have occurred in other accounts.



Sounds li' fun to mee! (Visions of rapid transfers and debit card purchases - not to mention cash withdrawals). Cheers!
