If you found $50K would you return it to it owner or keep it? Why?

Answer 1

i would give it to the police and wait to see if anyone claimed it
it's the right thing to do.

Answer 2

I would return it if I possibly could. It's not mine nor would I want any kind of reward other than a thank you. I don't need to be rewarded for doing the right thing. The golden rule comes into play here. If I tried to keep it, I would feel extremely guilty for every penny I spent. I returned $150,000 that a businessman dropped on the way out of the bank. I've never regretted it. I would not want that next to my name in God's book.

Answer 3

Honesty is the best policy. One must believe in hard earned money. We have no right to keep the lost money for our personal use. I will try to trace the owner and hand over the money to him. The other alternative is to report to police.

Answer 4

i wouldn't return it. i could use the dough. Plus, if someone is stupid enought to lose $50K, they don't deserve it back. As expensive of a lesson it is, i bet they wouldn't lose money again.

Answer 5

I would keep it , believing if it was me that had lost it no one would try to find me or care that I lost 50k ,and the Police would keep it if I asked them for help finding who had lost it . even if they can't find who owns it ,they would be keeping it telling me I can't have it back. saying "its not yours so you are not getting it back , Go away".

Answer 6

Return it, or hand it in to the police. Taking something that does not belong to me is theft.Honesty.

Answer 7

Turn it over to the Police.

Answer 8

I would return it without a doubt. Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.

Answer 9

KARMA... Return it, something that big you might get a reward anyway.
