Rick Lagina's Crew Hit The Jackpot After Selling The Oak Island Treasure For MILLIONS!
Unfortunately, we didn’t have a direct hit and were able to get into the tunnel, but we may have come down beside it, I think. So yes, if we just came down on the edge of it, today is the last day. There’s no question about it.
From the acquisition of a permit that could change the tides of the search for one of the most elusive treasures in human history to the different challenges these treasure hunters had to face to bring their dreams to life, here’s how Rick Leena’s crew hit the jackpot after selling the Oak Island treasure for millions.
Has there ever been a time that someone has not been looking for treasure on the mysterious Oak Island? For more than 200 years now, hordes of men have sailed across the ocean just so that they can give this search for this mysterious treasure a shot. Alas, we find that even in 2024, we have the likes of the Lagina brothers and The Curse of Oak Island treasure hunting crew, who are hoping to make the most of what modern technology has to offer so that they can find this legendary haul.
Considering the fact that this treasure hunting team has spent more than a decade looking for this treasure so far, we can see how daunting such a task may be. Probably, that is why the fans remain glued to the television set when the History Channel broadcasts the show. Whatever the case may be, we know that there are many who give their support to the Lagina brothers and the treasure hunting crew.
The permit and the treasure trove license are one of the many treasure hunting exercises being carried out by the Lagina brothers and their team. The group was a bit upbeat about the matter because they had just acquired this permit that would let them keep most, if not all, of the treasure they found while they were on Oak Island.
Brother, I know this is really quite inspiring. Yeah, it really is quite a trip back in time. It’s pretty amazing.
Oh, absolutely! With the government now only being entitled to a small percentage of said treasure, the team was even more motivated to be the ones who succeeded where many others have failed. At the very least, this new special permit will give them the encouragement to invest even more time and energy into the search for the mysterious treasure of Oak Island.
Thinking about it now, though, this encouraging news may actually show how this search is about much more than just finding wealth. This is a chance to leave a strong legacy as the ones who brought the legend of the treasure of this mysterious island to an end.
That said, it looked as though there may be other things to consider when it comes to the search for this treasure on this island. For some, they had even become more wary about some of the more dangerous elements that may be found on this peculiar island. As daunting as such fears may be, the team decided that what they needed to do was just follow the principles of what is known as the Treasure Trove license.
As we hinted at earlier, this is the license that would lay out the rules and procedures as to what would happen in the instance that these guys actually unearthed the mysterious treasure of Oak Island. What is interesting is it’s surrounded on the back, yeah, and the flat side, yeah, here it comes. It can kind of hurt; you have to look at it looking down.
Just as we mentioned earlier, those who are able to get this license will be able to keep most of what they find — 90% of it to be exact. The remaining 10% is given to the government. At the end of the day, such policies achieved their goal of encouraging people to invest their time and other resources in searching for treasure on such a place as Oak Island.
Understandably, such policies are quite enticing to many treasure hunters. As a result, it is no surprise that the Lagina brothers and their crew were dreaming about a massive payout should they ever find the treasure that is believed to be buried somewhere on Oak Island.
With that in mind, the possibility of getting such a great payout if they should find this treasure encouraged the Lagina brothers and their crew to acquire a ton of expensive equipment, the experts that would help run such state-of-the-art equipment and technology, while also making sure that they tirelessly push on with the search for the treasure.
Sure, there will be a ton of challenges in the way, despite all these resources available to them. But the thought of getting pretty much all of the proceeds of the treasure was just too much for them to ignore. They were going to find that treasure, whether they liked it or not.
That said, we must be reminded that the Treasure Trove license wasn’t just a money-making scheme; it was actually a way to make sure that society benefits from these treasure hunting exercises. That is why they made sure that they took 10% of the proceeds of whatever is found by these treasure hunters. By doing so, they would be making sure that most of the historical and cultural value of what the team discovers along the way will be preserved for everyone, and for many other generations to come.
At the very least, this means that a decent chunk of the treasure would actually be exhibited in museums. In lieu of that, they could also be used for some projects that are aimed at educating the public on the cultural and historical significance of said treasure.
Speaking of cultural and historical significance of this treasure, you’d find that some of these treasure hunters, just like our Lagina brothers, work hand-in-hand with archaeologists and historians. Sometimes this is the only way that they can make sense of some of the information that they come across during their search for treasure. It is also a way to make sure that the search for this hidden treasure does not result in the destruction of the environment. As such, you cannot underestimate how important the payment of this 10% of treasure is.
Furthermore, this levy also makes sure that these treasure hunters are working within the legal limits set out by the law. As such, it shows the government and the rest of the world that they are not there to stir up any trouble.
Another way that they could convince the world that they are working responsibly while searching for the treasure that is rumored to be hidden on Oak Island is by following a set of rules that are set out in the Treasure Trove license. With such a system in place, we are certain that the hunters would find that they are working in an environment that encourages treasure hunting, while making sure that the interests of the public and the environment are protected.
Looking at the situation at hand, one would find that the way that they are doing things on Oak Island may be one of the best examples out there on how to pull such an operation off. After all, it is best for everyone if both the treasure hunters and the community benefit from this search for treasure.
Let’s also remember that this TV show, The Curse of Oak Island, has brought the public’s attention to the many challenges that these treasure hunters have to endure just so that they could have but a sliver of a chance of finding this legendary treasure.
Just off the bat, you can only imagine the amount of legal, financial, and sometimes ethical dilemmas that the Lagina brothers and their team have to face on a daily basis. Thankfully, the Treasure Trove license is in place, and with it there to guide all parties involved, the treasure hunters are certain that they are not working in vain. They know that they would be entitled to the majority of the reward that comes with finding this treasure.
There are no fears that one government agency or the other would just swoop in after they did all the hard work required to find this treasure. To make such a deal sweeter, they are also certain that their discovery will lead to the enrichment of the community, one way or the other.
Looking at it now, we can all be thankful for this license because it seems to provide people like the Lagina brothers and their team the perfect guide that would make sure that their treasure hunts are carried out in a responsible way. With such a system in place, some may say that Oak Island may be one of the best modern examples on how to create an effective treasure hunting system.
Rick, the treasure hunter — pretty neat, right? Some may say that such a system may have helped the likes of people like Rick Lagina as they set off on their own treasure hunt journey.
We must remember that long before Rick became the famous treasure hunter that we see today, he was a postal worker. That said, he was still special because he was harboring a lifelong dream to head over to Nova Scotia so that he could give this treasure hunting dream a shot.
We must remember that Rick was born in Kingsford, Michigan, all the way back in 1952. Although he was born to a fairly normal life, he and his brother were happy to enjoy what life had to offer them. That is why he eventually settled for the life of a postal worker once he graduated from high school. This allowed him to travel all over the country as he followed a disciplined approach to his work.
Despite such a routine regimen, he found that there was something that he just couldn’t let go of — his inherent love for adventure and treasure hunting. You see, this love for treasure hunting all began in 1965 when he wasn’t even a teenager yet. This was when he came across this fascinating article which told him all about the treasure hunting history of that magical place just off the coast of Nova Scotia. That place, of course, was the mysterious Oak Island.
It told him all about the original Money Pit, a deep, well-protected shaft that is believed to be harboring some of the most valuable treasure that one could ever imagine. As you can see, such tales of hidden treasure that have eluded many for ages left a strong mark on the heart of this young boy. In fact, the impact was so strong that he carried it all the way to adulthood.
Eventually, he found himself sharing this same passion with his brother Marty.
The duo is now able to dedicate a lot of time and energy to their treasure hunt efforts because they sold their stake in a successful business to focus on the treasure hunt full-time. That decision has surely paid off in the long run. However, not everything about their journey was smooth sailing.
In fact, there were many times when the brothers found themselves up against major challenges. They had to endure bad weather, dangerous elements of the island, equipment malfunctions, and even financial constraints, just to name a few. Yet, they never gave up on their dream.
Today, with the help of the Treasure Trove license and modern technology, Rick and Marty Lagina continue their search for the Oak Island treasure, hoping that one day they will uncover the riches that so many before them have failed to find.
