I'd catch him and offer it.

If he didn't start thanking me profusely and/or offer a reward, I'd follow his sorry ass home and set his car on fire.


I fished a wallet out of a public toilet once. Still had ID and pictures, but no cash. Clerk said a guy was just looking for one. I stepped outside, found the guy, who starts screaming and accusing me of stealing his "whole paycheck". I threw it down a storm drain and walked away.

I've returned money any number of times and the people have been very grateful, it is just the right thing to do.

In almost all circumstances, I'd return it. I can imagine circumstances where I wouldn't though. If I had a reason to think negatively of him I might not. I've given cash to people who've dropped it before, at least 1 wallet that I can remember as well.

This is easy. I've done it countless times when given too much change or whatever.

I was eating lunch in a place where there is like a "court" and a bunch of walk up kiosks, and when I sat down there was a purse on the ground in front of me. I started walking to the counter and the guido making pizza was like, "Oh it must have been that lady she just walked out you might catch her." So I ran it out to her, and she snatched it out of my hand without a thank you and looked through it all thoroughly right in front of me.

My buddy told me I should have thrown it away, and I was like "Why? I have to live with what I do, she will be a lousy person forever." I don't even regret giving that nasty bitch her purse back.

If I saw him drop it I'd get his attention, or pick it up and give it to him.

If I found a money clip and I couldn't readily identify who it belonged to I'd keep it.

In high school.. There was this dumbass kid that i didnt like and being the dumbass he is, he left his duffelbag with all of his stuff in it in the locker room.. I knew it was his, so my friend i went through his stuff and found his wallet. He had $16 in it, we took 14 and let him keep 2(we were nice guys) - then we walked across the street bought some pizza and used the rest to play street fighter. I have never felt remorse for doing that.

I don't think a single person is surprised on who would keep it and who wouldn't
