    What would you do?

    This came up at work, and I was curious how
    other's would answer.

    If you found a zippered cloth bag full of money,
    equalling 1 million dollars what would you do.

    I voted that I would turn all the money into the police. Although I would be tempted to keep it and/or give it to charity, there is no way I would be able to stand the guilt of knowing that I took money that wasn't mine.

    I would turn it all over to the police, hoping that they (or the owner's) would give me a little something for having had the decency to do that. However, if they didn't and I found another bag of money some other time, it'd be mine... ALL MINE!!! *maniacal laugh*

    It'd be hard to do, but I think it's what would be the right thing to do.

    I am impressed!

    At work:

    One person said she would keep it.

    One person said she would give
    most of the money to the Catholic Church,
    and keep the rest for herself.

    One person said he would return the money, because
    he would not want to live in fear.
    (He said chances are, if you find a bag full of money,
    it probably is drug money and the owners would be
    looking for it)

    I must admit it is a little tempting, but I would return all the money and hope I get a big reward.

    I strongly believe what goes around comes around in life. I wouldn't keep it for myself. I am not all that sure that'd I give it to the cops either though. I think I'd anonymously donate it to a charity. -A charity to buy clothing and other luxuries for poor children.

    I have voted for keeping the money and giving some to charity, however if I was in this situation who knows what I would actually do.

    I would proboaly be to scared to keep it.

    I would give 950,000 to charity and keep 50,000 for myself! Just a tiny little 50,000 to pay off some bills and get ahead a little! I'd give some to help children, and even more to help the elderly (because nobody ever helps them) and some to help animals. Like 25% for children, 50% for elderly, 25% for animals.


    Thanks for the siggy, Lexi_Lover!

    I'd turn it over to the police. If no one claimed it..would that mean it would be mine? If I happened to get a reward or maybe no one claimed it...I'd keep enough to get my mom out of debt, get another dog, pay for university, pay off a car, spoil the brats...etc etc

    I would return it then hope that no one claimed it. I think if no one claims it after 30 days it's yours, so I would just hope for that

    Definitely return it to the police. I could never be so dishonest as to keep it!
