If you haven’t heard the saying, finder’s keepers, loser weepers… maybe you should consider it. One man in Florida obviously didn’t get that memo because he discovered a briefcase full of cash and returned it to its rightful owner. The couple had left the case on top of their car as they left a restaurant and when the man noticed the case in the road, he opened it to search for clues to contact them and found papers inside with a telegram and a giant stack of hundreds adding up to $8,000. Since he felt like it was a moral obligation to return it, he was able to hunt down the couple and give it back.
Unlike this man, when I discovered a really expensive ring in a garage sale that stated everything FREE I grabbed it. I found it, I kept it, and I ran like the wind. I don’t think I thought twice about telling the owner what they were handing away. It’s their fault…
When have you found and kept something? Have you ever found and returned something?
