I'd consider it my lucky day and every two weeks deposit some of it in the bank.

I would return it. I don't think I could live with the fact that I'm holding someone else's money that doesn't really belong to mine. My conscience would eat at me.

Right now, i would say that the bag would be buried in my crawlspace, but if the event actually, occured, I'd probably be a sucker and turn it in

I would definitely turn it in - I would never feel safe with it lying around. The money would be easily traced every time you spent or deposited it, and I very much doubt you would want to get pinched with it in your possession.

Yes, I would. I'd take a few thousand as a "tip," drop the rest into the night depository.

Would i turn it in? Hell no. If you really felt bad you could take like 3/4 of the money and turn the rest in. Just play dumb and say that's all you found. Then say "suckers" under your breath and go play with that new porsche!

I would take that bag, and turn it right in!


to my safe under my bed.

Seriously, the only thing to do with the money would be to purchase every piece of pokemon merchandise ever invented. I mean, whats wrong with you people?

LoL... finders keepers... losers weepers

that's my motto..

If I found it.. I'll use my own cash.. rent a boat off of florida and go out of the country or drive down to mexico.. and spend it there ; )

just imagine how much pesos you can get with that much money

If you try to deposit more than $5,000 in a bank at one time, they have to report it to the local police. (The theory being that if someone has that much cash, they're probably up to something) So I suppose you'd have to keep all that cash in your house. Without even getting into the morality/immorality of keeping it, I'd be paranoid just having it around. You'd have burglars lined up across the street waiting to rip you off.

In one way I am rich beyond belief. I respect my personal integrity. If I were to keep something that belonged to another it would cost me the one thing I value most.

If it was possibel to keep it without ever being caught, I would probably keep it. But if that is federal money, I'm pretty sure you would be found and prosecuted if you used any of the money and decided to keep it. This recently happend when someone found a bag of money that fell out of a armored car. The man decided to turn it in, but while they were investigating what happend to it, someone turned him in. They said they saw a male blah blah description, and turned him in. You would get caught really fast especially if it was a amount of money that big.

If you could keep it without ever getting caught, I sure would
