Once i was jogging with my fren on the streets when she found a $2 note on the ground.. To my surprise, she was actually surprised to find the money (i think it's her 1st time finding money on the streets) LOL..

She than ask me wat to do with the money, so i just told her, money picked up should be spent immediately or donated, but never keep for yourself.. So she chose to donate the money instead.. Straight away, we went to the church nearby, only to find that it's closed.. But she din give up, we went to the temple further down the streetsbut it's closed too.. Seeing her determination, i then told her there's 1 temple near my house but i'm not sure if it's closed.. So we gave our luck there, and our bad luck remains with us.. hehe^_^

At that time, i was thinking to myself, maybe god just wants us to spend the money instead.. LOL=D In the end, we used the money to buy drinks instead and we din even complete 1/4 of the run but spent around 1hr trying to donate the money away.. LOL=P
If u were to find money on the streets, wat will u do than?? hehe

eheh... congrats! I am also lucky like you, because many times i find money in the street or even in the corridor campus. Heheh... Its great, uhuh? What will i do with money is dependent on how much it is. Usually i only find money that enough to buy "snack"...


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  6 months ago

The largest amount i've found is $10.. And whenever i found money, i will just spend it.. Unless i found more than $50, maybe i will wait there for the person to come.. But just wait for awhile.. hehe^_^ IF it's hundreds and above, i will report to police or even wait there for the person to come back^_^

wow. you're friend is really honest. but i think that was kind of overdoing it. i mean, is a $2 note worth the effort of going from one temple to another?^__^;;

if i saw money on the street and if its big, i would return it to the owner if i know who the owner is, if not, i would surrender it to the police. if its just small money, like it wouldn't hurt my conscience to spend it, i would keep it and spend it. there would be not much i can buy with it anyway.^__^;; but if i saw the person who dropped it, i would return it to that person no matter how small the money is.^__^


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  6 months ago

Think my fren 1st time picking up money, and thus she's so anxious about doing some charity works by donating it.. LOL^_^
YUP, if it's hundreds and above, i will wait there a while b4 i report to the police.. If it's less than hundred or so, i will also wait, but only awhile b4 i go spending the money.. LOL^_^
It's only polite and correct to return the money to the person if u see them drop it^_^ hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  6 months ago

reminds me of several cases here in our country involving taxi drivers returning to the owner or giving to the police huge money they found on their cabs left by their passengers. ever since the first incident, its like honest taxi drivers became the fad and after that, a lot of same incidents happened. the people who returned the money usually get rewards after.^__^


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  6 months ago

That's a good thing happening in your country.. But in singapore, not matter how ple say that it's safe, when it comes to dropping things in the taxi, almost 90%, we can say goodbye to them.. LOL^_^ So if u were to get a taxi in singapore, remember to check all your belongings b4 u alight from the cab^_^ hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  6 months ago

really? that's too bad. then i guess i have to be extra careful then. but i've been very careful since the day i lost my cellphone in a taxi back when i was in college. after that, i always take extra care of my things when riding a taxi.^__^


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  6 months ago

Yup, because a taxi is fast and there's only u in the taxi.. So if u were to drop things inside a taxi, nobody can look out for u, only the driver.. So when taking taxi, it's always better to check your belongings b4 alighting^_^


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  6 months ago

you're right. when i lost my cellphone before its because i wasn't used with having a cellphone. it was my first cellphone after all.^__^


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  5 months ago

hehe.. But so far, i haven lose my handphone, but lost my wallet once and my house keys once on the taxi.. LOL


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  5 months ago

you lost your keys once? that wouldn't happen to me because my keys are attached in my coin purse. and i wouldn't lose my wallet! aside from money i got my ID and atm card there.^__^


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  5 months ago

same here.. I also got my ID and my atm card plus all the other useless cards inside my wallet too, including cash.. hehe^_^ Keys lost is not so bad as there are so many houses and flats in singapore, so it wun be easy for them to find the correct one, unless i drop my ID together with my keys.. LOL^_^
And my keys are hooked to the belt on my pants.. so maybe i got stuck between the seats when i'm alighting from the cab and the keys got pulled out in the process.. hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  5 months ago

but if you lost your keys they would be a hassle to you because you'd have to get replacements before you can open whatever it is they open, or you gonna have to destroy the lock and get new lock and keys. lot of trouble.^__^;;


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  5 months ago

As i din lose my keys in front of my house or somewhere near, so it's actually quite safe, need not change the lock just yet.. hehe^_^ BUt just to play safe, maybe a few months later, i will change the lock.. Right now is just the replacement of keys.. hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  5 months ago

better be safe than sorry right? happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

yup.. u'r right too^_^ But i still have not changed my lock yet.. LOL


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

i guess security is not a worry where you live so that's why changing locks is not your priority? am i right? happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

Yup.. actually it's quite safe in singapore and though it's a small country, but it wun be easy for the someone who found my keys to be able to find my house^_^ LOL


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  1 month ago

it really seems that its safe to live in Singapore. reminds me, my plan on going there kept being postponed. i can't seem to find the time to go to the travel agency and get a ticket. wink thanks for the best response kun. happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  1 month ago

Yup, it's safe in singapore and yeah, it's coming to the end of june now.. Tot u are supposed to ocme during april or may?? hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  1 month ago

i was really supposed to. but things have gone differently. i couldn't fit a 3-day vacation into my schedule. i didn't had the time to buy tickets and prepare for my vacation. right now i haven't ironed out my plan yet. doh


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  1 month ago

3 days?? It's not enough to tour singapore.. lol^_^ YEah, becasue of your volleyball tournament too and that's why u have last minute changes.. hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  4 weeks ago

as much as i want to have a longer vacation, i can't. i can't afford to absent from the office for several days. more absence means more deductions from my salary. doh


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  4 weeks ago

lol^_^ There are supposed to be annual leave available for u, secret.. hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  3 weeks ago

annual leave are only for permanent employees kun. and i'm not yet permanent in our office. happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  3 weeks ago

BUt u have been working there for quite sometime already, secret^_^


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  3 weeks ago

i've only worked here for three years only. i have to apply first for a permanent position and right now, i don't think i have the necessary qualifications yet to be permanent. i'm not hurrying up. i'm open for other jobs actually.^__^ i just have to find the right traveling agency so i can push through with my travel plans. happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  3 weeks ago

3 years and not yet permanent?? Your company is very strict ya?? hehe^_^ haha.. BY the way, how much does it cost for u to come to singapore??


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  3 weeks ago

not really strict kun. there's no vacant permanent position yet that's why i can't apply. hmmm.. i don't know exactly how much but there are promotional tour packages. there's a promo which i can go there in Singapore with only at least US$200. but that would be only for 3 days and two nights. happy i haven't really made a full inquiry.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  3 weeks ago

Looks like your company is really in demand, and alot of ple are fighting for a position there and dun wanna resign.. hehe^_^ 3days 2nights, is a little too short, maybe, 4 days 3 nights will be just nice.. hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  3 weeks ago

not really in demand. more of lack of budget to fund the position. we don't have much money in our bureau. i'll look for tour packages that's longer than three days. i also want my vacation to be longer so i can maximize my airfare. happy


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  2 weeks ago

Or maybe u can fund it for yourself.. lol=P

Or ya, if u are booking hotels in singapore, try to avoid hotel 81 and fragrance hotel, as they belong mopre to those red light hotels, even though they are not all located in red light district^_^

BUt they are alot cheaper too.. hehe


myLot reputation of 96/100. secretbear (4209)   ranked 16 out of 80 in running  2 weeks ago

what are red light hotels?? confused why should i avoid them?


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  2 weeks ago

Red light districts are those areas whereby prostitues frequent as well as guys looking for one.. hehe^_^

So if u dun wanna be mistaken for one or wanna be more safe, avoid all these hotels..

That seems like a lot of work just to donate it but i appreciate your determination!
To be honest i haven't found any money lying around since i was a kid but when i was i'd often find little coins on the floor while walking down the street...the most i ever found was $5 lying on the street floor and i think i ended up buying a toy with it.
When i did find a woman that dropped a coin without noticing i let her know and she said i could keep it so it wasn't much different:P
Nowadays if i found money on the streets i'd probably keep it.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  6 months ago

It's not me.. It's my fren whom has got the determination.. hehe:) It's polite and right to tell the person if u see them dropping the money, regardless how much it is.. But if u just find money money on the streets and u dunno who drop it, just spend it.. Money is meant to be spent anyway:) hehe

oh kun2349,i hear the saying first time that'money picked up should be spent immediately or donated,but never kept yourself'.while i think it's reasonable.though i havn't picked up money to date,i'll do it as you said nect time if i'm luck enough.thank you for reminding me!


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

Well maybe i'm just superstitious or wat, but all along, that's wat my parents been telling me since i was young.. LOL


myLot reputation of 97/100. sophialin (1043)   ranked 13 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

i don't think it superstitious,it's something can be called wisdom.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

wisdom?? LOL^_^ Y will u say it's wisdom??


myLot reputation of 97/100. sophialin (1043)   ranked 13 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

indeed money picked up is owned by you,while that extra money is neither due to your inherited wealth,nor hard working.in my opinion,only fortune is not reliable.if i get it by accident,i tend to distribute and share it with others immediately just as your mother says.


myLot reputation of 97/100. sophialin (1043)   ranked 13 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

i regard it as a wisdom as it shows the life value,which i appreciate and stick to all the time.that's don't be clinging to something not belong you and pay more attention to the social wealth balance.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kun2349 (2280)   ranked 7 out of 80 in running  4 months ago

I have found a money one time while i was on my way to go home..it was just at the floor and i do not who could have dropped it it was 100 pesos approximately 2$ or so..i dont know where to leave it 'coz there are no guards in that company within my area so i just decided to keep it then my grand mother texted me and asked me to buy her medicines for her wound..it was what i have spent for the things she had asked me to buy 'coz that time my money is my allowance only and i think it was really a blessing from God.
