Box of cash found in the wall of one of El Chapo’s houses
Not only was El Chapo one of the biggest kingpins in the world, but also, he was very rich. His reported net worth was over $12 billion. Unlike most billionaires, he actually had a lot of cash on hand. As a result, El Chapo owned a lot of “money houses.” Just as the phrase says, there are a lot of houses owned by the kingpin filled with cash. Some people went to one of these houses and knocked one of the walls out, finding a huge pile of cash.
El Chapo had a lot of problems, including the law trying to convict him. However, money was the least of the man’s worries. For most people, making over $400,000 a year would be the best case scenario. With that kind of money, a person could afford a $1 million home, and to travel the world. In El Chapo’s case, $400,000 a year would be a major downgrade. According to reports, he was making around $420,000 a week during the height of his empire.
Recently, one of El Chapo’s homes was raided, despite him being in prison for some time. Apparently, the house is being torn down, as there were tons of people going in and out. As they were knocking one of the walls down, a box ended up showing itself. This box was filled with stacks upon stacks of $100 bills. As a result, the people holding the money began to open it. It’s likely that these people took that money for their own use.
