Definetly return it to the person. Be the better man and feel good about it. There's far too few people in this world nowadays that look out for the other guy.

Depends on what the card said. If he was a CEO, or some other big $$$$ job I would keep it and if he was just some guy I would return it.

Well, I would never bother give that briefcase second look let alone pick it up and peek whats inside of it.

I found a Wallet when I was at Seaside OR this spring with about $60 in it. The wallet only had a School ID in it so I shipped it to his school.

If you asked me this a few years ago, I would say that I would take the money. Now, I would give it back.

I'd go to this house and ask, "where's the rest?"

Sorry to hear that Andy.

If I were going to steal... I'd make it worth while. I'd steal $500million or more... not $500. I'm a big fan of "doing the right thing no matter how hard it is" it should've been returned to the rightful owner.

karma will get them.
