A Sacramento homeowner is now $300,000 richer thanks to workers who unearthed a dozen jars of gold dust while installing heating and air conditioning under the floor.

Steve Ottley and his colleague at Clark & Rush stumbled upon the valuable stash sealed in twelve baby food jars.

The workers turned over the gold dust to the homeowners, who had no idea it was beneath their feet all these years.

I bet they are happy they invested $6,500 in a new HVAC system.
