* This was common practice in ancient times for cultures that revered their royalty as gods or demigods. Their tombs would be filled with money, food, gold, jewelry, fine clothing, fine weapons, [[HumanSacrifice and often even their servants, soldiers, and concubines]], which were all expected to be used by the spirit of the deceased in the afterlife.

Added DiffLines:

* In ''VideGame/Fable3'', you can build up a large pile of gold in your pocket dimension base. Depending on how much money you currently have, the pile grows larger and larger. And shrinks as you spend money. There's even a sort of mini quest in the room involving a chest on the floor and a key opening the chest near the ceiling. To open the chest, you have to make a large fortune of money, enough to fill the room up (and cover the chest) to grab the key. Then you have to spend it all to make the chest accessible again.

* [[ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse Scrooge McDuck]] has the Money Bin. Notable in that while it's still as trapped and guarded as any other pile of wealth that violates Euclidean geometry, it's intentionally set aside as valuable for ''sentimental'' reasons.

** There are tons of other examples as well since Scrooge moonlights as an AdventurerArchaeologist. He's discovered massive treasure hoards such as the Seven Cities of Cibola, the Aztec gold, the collective Mesoamerican riches hidden in Panama, the treasure of the Knight Templars, and the Amazonian CityOfGold. A noticeable one that the Ducks missed is the treasure collected by the Mongol hordes in Xanadu, which lies underneath [[spoiler:Tralla La]].

* The Cave of Wonders in ''Disney/{{Aladdin}}''. In a twist, the treasure is not what anyone goes into the cave for, and is in fact a [[SchmuckBait test of greed]]: "Touch ''nothing'' but the [[GenieInABottle lamp]]!" [[spoiler:When Abu does touch a piece of the treasure, the entire cave erupts in lava and fire, melting and consuming the treasure and trying to do the same to the heroes.]]
