Well I was watching his video, I haven't even finished watching it as I wanted to make this discussion and pose his question.
He says that there was a police chase where he lives, bankrobbers. Well they weren't ordnary (I spelled that wrong!) bank robbers, as they were throwing money they stole OUT the window.
Hmm has a lot of things going through my head on that one BUT his questions were..
What would you do in that situation?
He gave a few options but I won't use those here - I want to know what YOU would do if you saw this happen?

It depends, now if I know that it is a bank robbery and I know who the money belongs to, I would pick it up and return it. In another situation where I would not know where to return the money, I would keep it.
Although it would be very difficult to return it, we are all tight on money these days, I couldn't live with myself knowing where it belongs. I would rather be poor with a clean conscience.

I think I would just give it to the nearest police official. I'd tell them where I found it and maybe they have an idea of how it's connected. I may even just leave it on the street if I either can't get it to the police station, or don't want to bother with it.
I know I also couldn't just outright steal the money but I would accept a reward if one was given for the missing money.

Jimmy Kimmel was poking fun at this scenario. He showed a man who was being interviewed because he grabbed some of the money that were being thrown out. He said something like 'it isn't bad to get the stolen money if you really need it'.
I sais 'what?!'
I think it's funny how his views are skewed!

I wouldn't take the money for fear I would get caught on video.

If it were a bank robbery- and I don't know that many banks hold much real cash any more, I'd take the money. After all, senior bankers have been robbing us for years, taking bonuses for under performing- and placing the world economy at risk. When I started working I was paid cash. I resent the fact that I am forced to have a bank account in order to be paid- and that they can then use my money to make investments without paying me any proportion of what they make. Like all monopolies, they are taking advantage of the least well off to make huge profits for the rich.
