I am making a jump here.... You *ASSUME* that it was a child with $40 grand, that tells me that your a child also.

You want to be a responsible adult?? then start thinking like one.

He's not "Assuming" anything. It's a true storey.

For that kind of money to get there, IN CASH it's obviously dodgy It's no accident - it's not someones life savings. It's probably from a robbery than anything else, and that kids is far more deserving of it than anyone else. If he found it, it's his.

Just because WE wouldnt give it back, does not make us bad people or "children". Just because we have a differnt opinion to you, does not mean that it is wrong. I wouldnt give it back, i wouldnt hand it in. I'm not wrong for that.

i will try and find out what happend to it as this is a true story it was on the radeo for weeks <real radeo>

hell no i wouldnt hand it in, just like i wouldnt expect it to be returned if i was the one who lost it.

Maybe you shouldn't jam your morality down others throats. I've heard people like you before, except it goes something like "You smoke weed? I really feel bad for your parents for the job they -didn't- do when they raised you." Hope you enjoy the spot on your pedestal

I think if you happen to find £40,000 laying around in a bag chances are it's for something illegal. I'd hand it in, chances are the criminals won't collect since they won't want to be quized over it. I'm led to believe if the person doesn't collect it's your right to claim it as yours? But the other good point here being, that if that £40,000 is genuine it could belong to someone who had it stolen or someone who just happened to lose it. They could then retrieve it and I'd be happy knowing that I done good. Although slightly upset that someone did actually collect it lol.

Id give half of it back

even spilt

if they were careless enough to loose 40 grand then they got problems,

Id take my half and spilt right oughta here

to blu water and white sand

on the red eye

Would I turn it in??? hell yeah I would. I like being able to sleep at night.

So your saying that having morals and being able to sleep well at night because you did the right thing is bad??

Sheesh.... and you say *I'm* fucked up.

FWIW, the question was not about smoking weed in case you forgot.

My own personal opinion, such as it is..... is that weed should be legalized with the *same* age requirements, laws, rules, and regulations that apply to alcohol....and yes that also includes the taxes on it.
