I just found 80 bucks
Went out for some beer and bread at the local General store and there it was. Four crisp, new twenties just lying there in the parking lot.

I turned it in to the store. Made them put it in an envelope with my name on it.

I said I'd be back in two days to collect it if nobody came.

Did I do right?

1. Yes, and I think this is your normal way of doing things

good on you.


I just hope some douche nozzle in the store doesn't take it and claim the person came back for it.

2. Thanks
My son was mystified why I did that. The ride home was an explanation of everyday morals.

3. I taught my kid young, don't steal, it isn't yours unless it is given to you or bought
