Man who found 13K...

[TurtleCrusher]

Pure IDIOT!

And this guy is going to be a teacher?

 

[KLin]

Some people have morals. Get over it.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Some people are also smart enough to know that money can be backtraced by the non-internet police.

EDIT: Especially for 13k. That is probably about 3 months work for the average public school teacher.

 

[Mojoed]

I would have returned it too.

 

[TurtleCrusher]

But to say that you didn't even, for a moment in time, consider keeping it...

It's either a lie or he's just that dumb.

Kind of depends on how you use "consider" in this context. The M-W definition states careful thought, i.e. exclusive of fleeting "What if I..." thoughts. I think it's perfectly understandable that he didn't seriously consider stealing 13k of what was probably drug money that would lead to him being violated, sent to prison, and violated again.

I'd immediately go to vegas and cash it all in for chips, play a few rounds, cash out the chips and leave.

Don't lie, you'd go to Costco and spend at least half of it there.

WTF?! How do you know that?! I'd spend the other half at Amazon.

Probably saw "No Country for Old Men" and didn't want to be looking over his shoulder for dorky looking guys with a cattle stun gun.

edit: but for only 13k, you might be able to get them to give up after one or two escapes...

Anyways, I don't see what's the big deal. Some of us try to live ethically. Some of us also don't take everything spoken or written absolutely literally.

And what that have to do with anything? It does not matter if he is lying or not.. the point is he returned the money that is not his.

The guy doesn't even use his brain! Most likely she sheeple of society.

It is most likely that I would have done the same. Don't get me wrong though, I would think about and completely regret giving it back. The only thing that would make me feel better about it is that I believe in Karma.

For anyone who says they wouldn't think about keeping it is a liar. No doubt about it.

 

[Away]

Yes, having morals and ethics makes you a liar.

^Well said:thumbsup:

 

[Sonikku]

You don't really need to keep that money anyway if you're going to be a teacher. That's what they make in a week, hence the reason why the system is going bankrupt and only one party has the guts to cut their budgets.

[Jeeebus]

Yes - definitely the definition of "stupid." I mean, can you imagine what the world would be like if our children were being taught by people of scruples and ethics? Jeez, that would suck.

I won't even call this a thread backfire - more like thread just pulled out and came all over scholzpdx's face.

100% true.

 

[Murloc]

he thought about what he could do with that money for sure. Doesn't mean you have to tell the press.

Even figuring conservatively working 40 weeks out of the year, at 13K per week, that's over 500K a year. Yeah, you're FULL OF SHIT.

Nope. I believe the poster was being serious based on their post history.

Examples:

I don't know about that, your plan may go too far. While it would make sense to ensure the chronically sick and elderly were humanely euthanized, not necessarily everyone in the sub-6 figures category is a drain on America. Some of them are, but only because we enable them to by extending all of this socialism in the form of foodstamps/social security/medicare and caid ect. If we just did away with all the socialism and allowed nature to take it's course the sickest drains on our economy would be purified from the system while the lazy ones that remain would be forced to actually become contributing members of society.

Being poor does not exclude people from having a place in society in and of itself. (who else is going to make my Ipad?) It's just a role of obedience and service, not one of causing dissent and placing a disproportionate amount of hardship upon the constantly abused job creators already taking the majority of the blunt of the tax burden.

Let him die. We're all tired of all this damn socialism getting healthcare to the sickest of people who bleed the country dry.

No, Freedom Fries were created in AMERICA. Stop being taken in by Liberal lies.

Hey did you hear the one about the plane? Ah forget it, it's over your head.
