While I was waiting at the bus, an old old lady pulled out a wad of money and started counting it. I warned her about counting so.much money in public. That's not the best spot in the world to count money!! But she ignored me and kept counting. I told her my purse was snatched and pulled from my shoulder not too far from there. She continued to count. I said you never know who's watching including me. She then put the money back in her pocketbook. An old lady should be careful with such things. I hope she made it home ok. All that Money is very tempting.

@db20747 we never know who needs money and how badly need it. So we should not tempt others

Oy! She's probably done that all her life, but these days in this world, you definitely can't be doing that!

Risky indeed. Sure that area looks safe. But looks can be deceiving

Too bad she did not listen, she probably does this all the time.

As soon as I eyed her and said I could be watching her too, she thought twice and held on to her purse.

Shame on her. It's best to do it in private. Safety in numbers.

Yes, at home while no one is watching and put it in a secret safe.
