oh, thanks for the sympathy, but this happened in 1988, not right now.

close to 1 million dollars..."don't ask" I don't want to remember! What I learned from it was worth so much more!

I am so sorry. I lost $185 , well not lost, stolen.............I was mugged and fought the guy off but the flap on the purse ripped and I got just the flap he got the rest. The state paid me back though as there were 4 guys and they were prosecuted.
I was shopping one day and I noticed a purse in a cart that was unattended. Knowing that I am a good and decent person and that someones Christmas money was in there (even though I didn't look in it); I noticed behind a wall, a couple with their 2 children were eating and their purse wasn't in their sight. I knew it was theirs and took the purse to them. It made me feel good , as this was all of their Christmas money for their kids too. They were thankful and I went on my way. I was glad it was me that saw it, because many people would have just taken it. There are some good and decent people left in this world. Sorry you didn't run into one of them. Merry Christmas and just remember it's the thought that counts and it's about the birth of Jesus. I know that might not be what you want to hear ..............but I needed to say it. One can only pray that this person(s) do the right thing. Please more careful from now on. It only takes a second of turning around and it's gone. It is even worse around Christmas. They will get their due in the end.

I'm so sorry to hear that... life's lessons like these teach us to make sure this doesn't happen again. I would advise on keeping the wallet on a chain on to never lay it down but always kept on you some way.I've gambled a grand in Las Vegas but that money was put aside knowing that I might lose it all and I did but I had fun but would never did it again and won't do it again. I've made gambles on what I thought were "good" deals but turned out to be scams and luckily I didn't lose more than $100 or so on those deals. I've made bad investments where I've lost almost $10,000. The best advice in taking risks comes from the Bible and GOD does want us to take risks more than the "do nothing and play it safe" attitude. But always pray for direction and answers.
Merry Christmas and the very best to you!

For $500.00 By PayPal and a scammer that filed a charge back against me after I sent her an antique light which she bought in perfect condition on Ebay. She filed with her charge company even before she had the light delivered and then never sent it back. She kept doing this to other people till she was kicked off of Ebay.
