Brinks poll - what would you have done?

[jipsy]

Just heard this one on the news:

Two men find a Brinks bag in the road with $33K in it. They turned it in. Brinks doesn't even acknowledge them with a phone call.

What would you have done?

Put it towards a good cause.

I would be sorely tempted...I really would. But in the end I'd have to turn it in. I would expect a reward though. Even a token one. That's just good PR for Brinks.

I would have blown it all on hats.

I didn't know you could find money like that. I"ve never found more than a couple cents on the ground.

TOV

 

[Jenn Lynn]

Turned it in hoping for a reward.

 

[Sparx]

I loose my glasses WHEN I AM WEARING THEM! I am never gonna find anything like that! lol

 

[cynsaun]

Put it towards a good cause.

Liquor?

 

[Briarmom]

Well, I would have turned it in. I would feel too guilty to keep it, but I would expect a THANK YOU! There is no way you can know what's going to happen until you turn it in.

Brinks would have paid for my extended visit to Europe had I found it.

Let's say you keep it....Wouldn't they find out it was missing money if you started to spend it?

I really would be tempted that is for sure.

$33K? I doubt it if you're smart with it.

$3,300,000 would be a different story

$33K? I doubt it if you're smart with it.

Now there is where the trouble lies...

 

[ASFCurly]

I would be tempted, but to nervous that I would get found out and have lots of trouble, so I would turn it in, I do think that they should do something, even if it was just a thank you card.

 

[MosMom]

I would have turned it in because I would be too afraid that there was a hidden camera watching me.

 

[PoohBearLovinMama]

I would have turned it in not expecting a reward, but really hoping for one. I would expect a Thank you though, and I think it's pretty crummy that Brinks didn't thank the guy.

 

[grinningghost]

Doesn't surprise me. My FIL worked for Brink's for years and the company does everything on the cheap. Even for their employees who have their lives on the line everyday. I would have turned the money in, definitely not expecting one red cent in reward money.

when I was in college I used to work at a public park. one of my jobs was picking up litter alongside the highway. I used to find $1 bills, sometimes even a $5 or a $10 sometimes. of course I kept it.


but a whole brinks bag? I'd be afraid they were marked bils, or that the contents were otherwise traceable, and I'd turn it in.

I'd hope for a reward, but I'd expect at least a "thank you."
