The person walking in front of you drops some money . . .

**The Black Wolf** · 07-31-2012

You're walking down the street. Suddenly, the person walking in front of you has money fall out of their pocket. Not a wallet, not a credit card, but cash.

What do you do? I'm curious to what PSU members would do, that's all.

Do you:

A. "Hey, you dropped this!" Give it back to them.
B. "Oh yeah, I'm eating out tonight!" Keep it.
C. "Hmmm. . ." It depends on how much it is.

Assuming it's a normal stranger and anything substantial (I mean, I'm not going to bother returning a dime or penny) then I would simply return it.

Irrelevant of how much they drop, I do the same thing; notify them that they dropped it.

**MjW** · 07-31-2012

It has happened a few times. Never crossed my mind to keep it.

**-Kwesnoth-** · 07-31-2012

I would return it. It might be the only money that person has.

**radgamer420** · 07-31-2012

Definitley return it.

**ps3isawesome** · 07-31-2012

Has happened to me twice, I jogged to catch up and give them their dropped cash both times.

**BoyBettaKnow** · 07-31-2012

If I see someone drop it or if they walk away from an ATM I'll call them

If I see money on the floor with no one around to believe its theirs - I'll keep it.

I see you've decided to stay once again, TBW?

I've been back for a while. The last post I made in the leaving thread was more of a "I'll be around less" post. It's true because Fall 2012 semester is about to start in August.

I pretty much agree with Rapture. If it's a few coins, I wouldn't even bother telling them or even picking it up myself. But I'd hand a wad of notes back to them.

I'm curious who'd agree with me on this... If I hadn't seen them drop it (in other words I didn't know who it belonged to), I would probably keep it. I'm talking 100's, not 1000's. If it's too much, I'd give it to the police (for the risk of it being drug money or something!)

**F34R** · 07-31-2012

Any amount, I'd give it to the person who lost it.

**Kuro** · 07-31-2012

I'd let them know they drop it and give it back regardless of the amount.

**mickice** · 07-31-2012

I dropped my entire wallet once, the guy behind returned it

Once when I dropped a $5 I said to the guy keep it, lunch is on me.

**DeviousOne** · 07-31-2012

Im a firm believer in Karma so i would give it back right away because you never know you could be the person to drop money the next time

Well you are a cop, you have to. :P

I'd definitely return it regardless of the amount or who it is.

this.

i did some charity work in London once, damn near broke my soul when they told me they keep all their money in their wallets. the amounts ranged from £10-£30 pounds

in typical brit fashion though, they managed to get a laugh out of it

**mooninites** · 07-31-2012

I would definitely return it and have done so.

I'd return it. Sometimes I've traveled all the way to the police station to return a lost wallet.

But, what would you guys do if someone dropped a 10 000 dollar stack of money right in front of ya?

**DeviousOne** · 07-31-2012

Now if i find it and no one is around then i'd keep it thats a different story

**Nu Soard Graphite** · 07-31-2012

I have had this happen to me. Give it back to them of course. I would want someone to give back my cash if I dropped it, so that's what I do if I come across that situation.

It is okay to keep money that you come across that has no obvious owner. (no one around. No wallet or I.D. with it) Otherwise it is just a step below stealing.

Call the police, because they probably stole it!

I would report it to the Police if I didnt have an owner at hand.
