What would you do? If you found a bag with £100,000 and would never be found out but later discovered it had

Question

come from some dodgy drug dealer, would you keep it? Remember you would never be found out that you had found it.

If I'm honest I would want to keep it but would feel scared too, but would have a great holiday to get over my fears haha.

Answer 1

Of course i'd keep it... even if i knew in the first place it belonged to some dodgy drug dealer... it'd be better in my hands than a scumbags like that

Answer 2

Keep it.

Under normal circumstances I'd keep it unless there was weighing evidence it was going to some charity or something. I know I can spend it better, and it's not like I couldn't use it, living as a student for 3 years teaches you to appreciate every penny you have when trying to get weekly food for about £7. And if it came from a drug dealer? Then I'm not going to let that money wind up buying more drugs and prostitutes. I'd set my life on track, do something good with it for me and those close to me.

Answer 3

My conscience is the one I have to live with, and not those who "never found out", so I would obviously take it to the police. Anyway, it is not true that nobody sees it: God sees everything!
The biggest problem of people is that they think they don't have enough money, when they don't realise money in itself is not enough. It is sooo true. I have never been rich, but I always had enough, and I was always a happy and content person. It's quite sad to see all my very rich friends, none of them are happy or content. The more they have, the less they seem to enjoy it, and the more they want. I can be soo excited, when I buy something I have been saving for for a long time, but they (my rich friends) have lost that feeling a very long time ago. So I mean it when I say that I never want to be rich.
I would take the money to the police.

Answer 4

100K, I´d take my 10% finders fee, then hand it back to it´s rightful owner, no matter how dodgy the drug dealer, I´m sure they´d be grateful that I didn´t hand it into the police, and that they got back 90% of everything which I could have quite easily kept all to myself...

dodgy drug dealers aren´t murderers or peadophiles they just evade tax (which isn´t something God invented, and they deal in goods which God made readily available) the real crimanals are the people that earn 100k a year to make up and enforce laws which are not divine, I think the relevant commandments here are thou shalt not steal, and thou shalt not kill (My drug dealer does neither and goes to church every sunday as is breaking no divine law, only the fabricated laws which serve to covert the general population they steal our money and our freedom) seems there are a lot people that think God made the laws by which we live, well wake up people, he didn´t!
God wants you to abide by his laws not those of President Bush or Mr Blair etc

as a small example would God send you to hell for pissing in the street? erm... No!
Would the police fine you or lock you up for pissing in the street? erm...Yes!

I don´t believe God gave anybody on this planet the divine right to lead all others, to demand compliance from any other human I think you God folk are wrong by assuming the government and police are are better people than my local drug dealer, he doesn´t need to ask God for forgiveness as he hasn´t broken any of Gods laws and lives completely by the bible.

Answer 5

No i couldn`t keep it even if i was tempted
I wouldn`t be able to sleep at night ,
If it was from a drug dealer then i would be really scared to keep it even if the chances of being found out were very slim I would never be able to relax

Answer 6

I would turn it in. Why?

1. God watches us and sees all and I would have to answer to him for my actions and even 100k is not worth that.

2. I actually do believe it is important to maintain my own integrity if I'm going to be genuinely happy. Money like that would bring instant gratification but deep down inside I could not live with myself.

3. I would not want to profit from other people's misery. I despise drug dealers and the evil they bring - taking that cash would make me as bad as them

4. Turning it in might give the police clues as to how to catch the dealer - I would want that having worked with many people whose lives have been destroyed by drug dealers.

Answer 7

I remember a bank manager jumped off Beachy Head once. He left his car running at the top of the cliff and an off-duty copper walking his dog found a suitcase in the car. In it there was £250.000 in used notes. He handed it in. (A true story)
I wouldn't have and would be even more pleased with myself if i was to find out it came from a corrupted bank manager.
I reckon there is more dodgy respectables out there than there are dodgy drug dealers somehow ...

Answer 8

If it was dirty money, from a criminal like a drug dealer. I would certainly keep it. I would donate some of it. But if it clean money, i'll try to see, whose it is. If I take it to the Police and it isn't claimed within a few months. I get to keep it I think.

Answer 9

it's some kind of easy money. i would keep a half and the rest sum give back to police and hope for the reward

Answer 10

Well now missiecla... I like to think I would ask God our father what he wanted me to do with it, then go to it with a good will and heart. but like you I don't really know what I would do and since it highly unlikely to happen dream on. yours in Jesus Christ. Thank you for asking. peter william lack.
