#151604 - 05/10/07 07:50 AM Find $65k in the street - what would you do?

I personally would have held onto it for a while, monitoring all the news / newspapers etc. for any robberies in the area. If it turns out there was one and the money was stolen, then I'd hand it in.

If the story ends up being some dumbass security guard on an armored truck accidentally let a $65k bag of money fall onto the street. Merry Christmas Me.

that's a tough one. A guilty concscience would eat at me if I kept it, I'm afraid.

I hope to hell the armored truck company gives her a decent reward.

Is finding $65k in the street and keeping it illegal in some way?

I'll remember that the next time I see a quarter in the street and not to pick it up - Just in case I go to jail smile

I imagine it depends on whether it was reported stolen, and whether the serials were noted. If the serials are known stolen, you'd be up shit creek.

I wouldn't touch it. My luck, it'd be mob money.

I think you are required to turn it in and if it's not claimed in a set amount of time, it's all yours. frown I sure could use that kind of pocket change for some mods

Integrity doesn't have a price, so there's only one answer...turn it in. If it goes unclaimed, you'll get it. And yeah, whoever claims it has to have proof it's theirs.

Or the cop knows a guy and coaches his buddy on what to say when he gets to the station..... laugh

Every other time you hear about this kind of thing, it's some elderly person's life savings or something like that - so I'd probably turn it in.

Is 65K really worth opening the door to the possibility of getting assraped in prison? Not to me, man.......not to me.

I would keep it in a heartbeat. I've been looking for some much needed cash. If it were a wallet with ID and just a few hundred I would give it back. Unidentified cash? Mine.

$65k and a ass raping does not sound fun to me either (thats was funny) do not forget it would be a daily ass raping squeal like piggy.
Two chicks at the same time I would think if you had $65k you could hook that up chicks dig money man.(sorry had to elaborate a little).
I would turn it in while crying all the way home, It would be nice if they gave you a little something for turning it in. That is a lot of money and MODS.
Me and Jim from shrockworks could be come very good friends. Got to go breast commercials on.
