Yahoo News reported today that Debbie Cole, a county garbage operations employee in St Petersburg, FLA did just that.

Seems a bag full of $50 and $100 fell out of the back of a Loomis truck about 1/2 hour before Cole found it. She immediately contacted her supervisor who in turn notified authorities. So far she has been offered no reward from Loomis and her boss says the best he can give her is the possibility of time off.

When asked if she thought, even for a second, about keeping the money she replied, “To be honest, no. It didn’t even cross my mind.”

I know I’d have turned it in but not until I took a long time to think about it. $65,000 would sure clear up some debt and leave me enough for a massage too. It would have been very tempting, but I am happy honest people, still exist. How about you? Would you have turned it in, without a moment’s hesitation? Would you have kept it?
