I think that lady deserves some of the cash for her honesty. If that were me I would have probably taken some of it. So if you found it, would you turn it in?

I probably would. After all...$65,000 is a lot...but I'd expect some of it in return, like maybe $100.

Another random news story. Awesome.

Good karma.

 

 

 

I'd probably turn it in. I'm not so sure but I don't think it's the most legal thing in the world to claim finders keepers on anything, especially if it's 65 grand. As far as I know, you can turn it in and if no one claims it within a certain time, it's yours.

well if she believes in karma, she should go buy a few lottery tickets :lol:

 

but seriously, she deserves a reward for that. most people would've kept some/all of it.

Yeah, I'm sure we can all read a paper or watch the news ourselves. We really don't need a new topic for every article that pops up. How about we get a sticky for this?

Craiglowery, you're act is getting so dry and stale. Go away.

Instead of making this a common News thread, why not make a bit of debate about it? If it had been you, would you have kept (part of) the money? Would you at least be expecting a juicy reward from it?

that would be a hard decision wether to keep it or turn it in but im all for the sticky :)

That wouldn't be so bad, but I don't really see it going very far. But the OP just posts too many news articles as it is..

I probably would have kept it. Yes, im a greedy *******, but at least i admit it.

Can we have a Subforum for news reports courtesy of Craiglowery. Please.

I don't know what I would do, sometimes I'm nice and sometimes I'm not :P

 

 

 

I do believe what you give you get back 3 fold though - each to their own.

I don't mind the News Reports. What else would we post. It is off-topic.

I might have kept it, or at least considered keeping it. But then again its freaking 65,000 dollars, so i'd probably turn it in after arguing with myself for a long time.

I'd have an argument with myself, and usually always come to a good result. Yeah, I'd turn it in.

I'd keep it :/.

I'm sure the topic about ties is far more exciting than these news topics.

Anything that can lead to some sort of discussion really, that's why I proposed him to at least raise some polemical questions with the next News Thread he makes.

He did ask what you would do with it.

I would have to agree actually.

If it were a hundred dollar bill I just found lying on the ground, I'd probably take it, and wait a bit, and if anyone was like "I just lost 100 dollars OMGWTFBBQ!", I'd probably give it back. But 65 grand? That's a lot to just dump into a bank account and have it go unnoticed. (The limit before it's checked out is like 10 grand, right?)

I actually kinda like this one because its more of a prompt of discussion, whereas the other random news stories were kinda just there to make us go 'ugghg, this is outrageous!'

Same. Good philosophy. :)

Depends who you are really. So if your a "nobody" you'd be going to get a Swiss Bank account asap. :wink:

If I found it;

 

 

 

What $65,000? :lol:

I kind of respect craig for continuing to post, even though he's getting flamed by 3/4 of the OT, even I am a little cranky of the news threads. But he is persistent. :-#

 

 

 

I would have have taken that money and would be halfway from buying all the lottery tickets in Southern Ontario. ^^
