Would you keep it?

Turn it in?

Let's say its $1000 USD

Discuss

I'd keep it and probably buy myself some new furniture or electronics.

Depends...Is it a roundish bag with a dollar sign on it? If so, then yes. I've always wanted one of those bags.

No name or any kind of identifier? If the owner isn't in the immediate area, I'm keeping that cash.

If it had no name or address on it, and no body claimed it, I would certainly keep it.

It really depends. I mean, I'm not gonna go find a police station and turn it in. If there was some kind of identification, maybe I would turn it in. Or give it to a bank if the bank's name is on it.

If there is no way to distinguish any kind of owner, I'd probably just keep it. I'm a poor college student sorry.

No sign of any type of identification and nobody else around watching me, then I'm keeping it. Otherwise I would turn it in.

Keep it. I'll go buy a PS3, buy MGS4, pre-order every game I want, and leave the rest to pay off the pre-orders and buy some new books.

Depending on the amount, I would open up a business or invest in stocks.

Depends if it's in plain view like you know in the middle of a city, or street, or a builidng then i'd probably turn it in. However if I happened to stumble across $1000 in a place that you really wouldn't expect to find $1000 in i'm keeping it.

in most cases I would keep it. If it was somewhere where the owner may be close by I would return it though.

I would take it unless a police saw me take it, then I would feel forced to split it with him so he won't lock me up.

I am conflicted I really want to say I would turn it in but with my income it takes me anywhere from 3-6 months to make that kind of money. Anways I really hope that I would turn it in.

*even if the original owner did not claim it.

I'd want to keep it but I think my conscience would get the better of me for only $1000.

Now if we changed the currency to GBP and made the amount £10,000 then maybe I'll ignore my conscience.

If the owner would be in the immediate vicinity I would give it back you cant just let go that much cash after you took it home and showed him your room.

Though If would have lost it I would like it back, though I dont know who is stupid enough to lose 1000$, if you are poor and walking around with that kind of money then you take care of it, if you are rich you just dont care that much. I have never lost money in my life. Money should be handled responsably if he or she didnt handle it to well then your as responsable as it gets, buying a new ps3 and preordering games LOL.

Depends, really. If I found it in a wallet with some means of ID, I'd turn it in to the police. But if it turned up like the figurative pot of gold with no way of telling whose it was, well - that's another matter altogether. Let's say it was 100% impossible to return it, I'd probably try to extract maximum value from it, preferably by going to http://www.dubli.com to blow a bit (they really do save you loads of money) and thereafter I guess I'd invest it. Sure, the economy's terrible right now, but all the more reason to make a longterm investment!

I would try to think of a way to give it back to the community some how. Maybe give it to a home-less shelter or an Animal hospital or something like that.

Same here. College is draining my cash.
