Who is stupid enough to leaver $5,000 of property in the passenger seat of their car?

We'd be lucky to get $3000 out of our twenty year old mini-van even if we included the contents. It is currently filthy from the nasty weather we have had. Last summer my wife was sitting with the side door open feeding our dog some of her potato chips while she was waiting for me to come out of Home Depot. A guy came over to her, handed her $20 and said, "buy that dog some decent food" and then ran off. She was speechless and didn't understand what had happened. He thought that we were homeless. We actually own two homes and an airplane.

We still don't leave valuables in plain view when we park one of our vehicles. Judging from the video, the car broken into was a BMW X5 worth approximately $50,000 depending on the year. It's a thief magnet.

2019 BMW X5 M50d (US-Spec) - Rear, #338 of 387

Those vehicles look like a shoe, and every other car on the road...No style whatsoever.

I left my old car with the keys in hoping someone would steal it. Came back and found a $20 under the windshield.
