When you go home from your works, you found a huge bag full of money! What will you do with it? For me, I will try to find the owner, but if after a long time the owner didnt show up, I will use it myself. Personally, I will use it to go abroad and go to a college there. How about you? What will you do with it?

I would sit and count how much money was in the bag, then id try find the owner and hope for a reward, if i got to keep i would spend it on my friends and family. Take them places abroad and spend on a new closet of clothes.

if that's how you will treat that money, stubocee, it will dissipate in thin air in no time at all. but anyway, this is only a supposing scenario. meaning, the proposal which you have come up has not really been well thought of. i believe that if this happens in real life, your attitude would be so different. a bagful of money is surely an enormous amount. money of such magnitude always are in high denomination. thus, most probably, most of us will use it to buy a good house plus a new car then, put up a small business to manage which will see us through life for life. vacations and happy life to be spent with the family will always follow suit soon after the business venture is earning well and good. i hope that you agree with me on this one, my friend.

Well, everybody have different way of thinking, maybe the money owner will really give stubocee the reward right?

Spend it. I'm now the owner of said money. I watched this news special once about a cashier clerk who purposely gave people back a $100 bill mixed in with their $1 bills just to see who'd give it back. Almost nobody did. They all pretended they didn't see the money! lmao! The camera caught them all looking at it, putting it in their pocket quickly, and walking out. I'd do the same thing. And when the guy came up to me to say, "You're on camera; give the money back now," I'd laugh in his face and tell him to sue me for it. lol Money has no owners -- only spenders.

Hey there! If I found a huge bag full of money I would return it. It a responsibility of a person to return what he found and what is not his. If no one shows up to claim the money I'd keep it. I'll use some of it to invest in business. I won't use it for personal pleasure but for personal growth. That money doesn't belong to me. I believe I should return the money. It may not be to the righteous person but to the righteous people in need. Have a nice day. Happy posting!!

You right too, we can take the money or not its depend on the situation we're in. Anyway, there is no right or wrong in opinion, and how much I need to get an Ipod mini ? :P

I would have to try & find the owner or surrender it at the Police station. As much as I could do with a huge bag of money at the mo, I would feel guilty if I hadn't tried to return it!! A finders reward would also be hoped for!! MrsL x x

the money is already mine if i cannot find the owner of the money, right? i will invest the money on some business which will earn some good income for me. if there will some amount left of it, i will deposit it in the bank. when the time will come that announcements will be made that someone is searching for some lost money, i have some amount to return to him yet. if ever my business venture is already earning, i will pay him back the amount that i have used for my investment. i believe that it is better to put the money to better use rather that make it sit in a corner uselessly. although technically, the money is not mine, it is at my disposal for as long as it stays with me. so, i might as well put it at its most advantageous use.

Hmm, good idea. Investing so that the money owner get the money back and we get the money from the investment.
