I would not keep the money. I would turn it in.

That being said, I have had my purse stolen that contained my paycheck, credit cards, ID, checkbook, housekeys, and all the other items that are tossed inside. MAJOR PITA having to CX all of the above. This was also on a Friday afternoon.

I also left my wallet in a shopping cart at Harvest Market with $2,000.00 cash. Reason I had that kind of money was because my sister was about to go to Australia (sp?) for a long 6 week vacation and her bank screwed up and she couldn't get her cash. I had 4 neighbor kids with me and went to the bank and then store.

I didn't realize that it was missing until I got back to the Ranch Club where I lived at the time. I was EXTREMELY lucky that it was found by a bag boy collecting carts and he turned it into the store manager, EVERYTHING intact.

What comes around goes around.

Another lesson I learned as a young child... I picked flowers out of a neighbors yard for my Mom yard without asking permission. Upon presenting my mother with the flowers, she asked where I got them and I told her. She walked me back to said neighbor and made me go to the door by myself to return them and apologize.

A very big lesson indeed!

:cheers: to my Mom. Some of you others should have had my mom to teach you a lesson in what is right and what is wrong.

:yeahthat: and whoever is stupid enough to carry that much cash around with them and effing lose it, is stupid enough to hand it to me!
But probably smart enough to find you and kill you when they realize it is gone. Don't you watch movies?

Thanks, sweetums, but I really don't need a hand out. I'd rather take pride in knowing that I'm an honest person who can earn her keep without stealing from other people. But that's just me. :smile:

That's why I'd give you a dolla'.

Would it be alright if I spent some of the money on Halloween costumes for my cats and turned in the rest? :confused:

I voted to keep the money.
I would look at it either of two ways.
One it was illegally earned and un reported.
Two it was legally earned and stolen, but it's insured.

See this is my honest opinion of reality , so I'm not really a bad guy :lmao:

Charlie off of Willy Wonka kept the cash he found on the street and look where it got him. :wink:

I think with that amount of money I'd turn it in because someone would definitely be looking for it. If it were $1-$1000 I'd probably keep it. If I found out someone had lost it, I'd return it. :shrug: If it had identification I'd get it back to whoever owned it. I think some of the comments with regards to how far one would go to find the rightful owner is a bit outlandish and quite frankly :bs: I've yet to meet anyone on these forums with that much willingness to do for their fellow man. :twitch: :wink:

Coworker found $2.00 outside the door today. I asked if she was going to keep it, she said no, it was probably the boss-man's and she is going to ask him tomorrow if it is his. :lol:

I heard this story on the radio this morning. It made me think what I would do if I found this much cash on the street. My question to you is would you keep the money if you didn't think you would be caught? Meaning, you had no clue that anybody would ever find out that you came across this cash on the street!
