As I was walking my dog lastnite, I came across a small duffle bag. It looked like it had been lost, since it was in the middle of the street. I picked it up and looked inside to see if there was any ID. I opened it, and it was full of money. What should I do people? I'm broke and could use the money. Should I do the right thing and turn it in? I could really use the money. There is about $500 bucks in there. I knew this was the right place to ask you all for your thoughts on this.

You mentioned that you looked inside to see if there was any ID. Whose money is it? If you cannot discern that, then if you want to do the "honorable" thing post some blogs describing in vague terms where and when you found the money, kind of like you did in your question here, and see if you get any responses. If you do, have the respondent describe exactly where (s)he lost the money, what type of bag it was in, how much and the denominations, etc. I believe the legal guideline is 180 days, after which time, having made a good faith attempt to identify the owner but without success, you are entitled to keep the money.

Hi starbuck....gosh it's hard when your broke but will your conscience rest if you go out and blow it?....

Why don't you write out a card, don't mention the money just .....bag found, suchin such time phone..... go to your nearrest store that displays adverts in the window and see what happens.

Don't give to many details away because your bound to get some con mechant phone up declaring it's theirs.. give it a go,


Goodluck
