Hypothetical question:

You're walking out of a wal-mart, and your car is parked in the very back area. Near your car, you find a $100 bill on the ground. What would you do?

If you find a $100 bill, unless you can tell whose it is, you keep it. If someone tells you that they just lost it you give it back, but otherwise, it belongs to you. If I drop and lose a $100 bill, I don't expect someone to come looking for me. It is gone.

If it is an ATM card or something identifiable, of course, you turn it in the the store (I would never be near a wal-mart). It is was an object such as a purse, wallet, or some other personal item, you turn it in.

Cash is different. It is bearer. Find it, it is yours.

Your son is gay. He is in his first year of college and he comes to you and tells you that he has thought about it for a long time and he is gay. Changing him is not an option. He has a boyfriend and hopes to bring his love to family Chirstmas dinner. How do you you deal with it? The dinner and life.

I would find the owner of the $100 dollar bill. I would not keep it even if I couldn't find the owner. I would donate it to charity.

I mean hey its what "scouts" do... right?

tom said...

No. Scouts would not do that. If you cannot fin the woner the law says it is yours.
