Zone1 You Find a Wallet with Money and Credit Cards

[sealybobo]

My brother and his wife were at an Amusement Park once and had just gotten off a Roller Coaster

His wife looked down at her hand and realized the diamond was gone from her engagement ring.

They frantically ran back to the Roller Coaster and someone had seen the diamond on the platform and had turned it in.

I always said if I was going to turn to a life of crime I would steal women's diamond rings right off their fingers in parking lots. Is there any better low hanging fruit than this? Women walking around with expensive rings on? They're all over the place.

And old women who've lost a lot of weight. The ring will slide right off. LOL. I'm terrible!

If you bought a $10,000 diamond, you can typically expect to sell it for somewhere between $2,000 and $6,000 depending on its quality, cut, clarity, and where you sell it, with the most likely resale value being around 50% of its original purchase price; meaning you might be able to get around $5,000 for it in a good scenario.

I do not know what the diamond cost but that my brother was still paying for it.

Whoever found it could have gotten a couple thousand dollars

To some people $200 is a lot of money to lose. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Yesterday I took 4 guys out for lunch. I think I tipped and the restaurant added the gratuity too. On the way home I did the match and can't understand how 5 $20 meals plus a smoothie and coke add up to $275. It should add up to around $220. I think they added the tip and not paying attention, I tipped again. That $35 bothers me. LOL

I didn't lose any sleep but it sure is still bothering me. The secret is to tell yourself that it was a Christmas gift to that Muslim towel head. Clearly it's still bothering me.

Then we went to a cigar bar. $14 a cigar. Then my friend orders 3 drinks and that came to $50. What the fuck??? I would never go to a place like this. My brother treated us. If I found a wallet with money in this parking lot I'd keep it because it's some dumb rich fuckers who doesn't have a problem paying $64 for a drink and a cigar.

I never found a wallet. Maybe I just think I would return it if it had a wad of cash in it or just buy myself another pair of shoes. I don't even wanna think about how much money I have forked over for shoes and bags. It's probably criminal.

As a Marine Stationed in Okinawa, I found a Japanese person's wallet in the bathroom it had lots of yen in it. I took it to the Cop in the store. We couldn't talk because I don't know Japanese, and he didn't know English. he was like ok till he looked and saw I didn't steal the money and he was all happy and thanked me.

I don’t know about that.
I think most women would fight you to the death over their diamond ring

I spend so little on clothes. My brother gives me hand me downs. I wear shit for years. Longer than I should. Last month the owners came in from Germany so I went and bought a bunch of new shirts. I can see how people get addicted to buying new clothes. I love wearing new clothes.

But I need to save for retirement so I suspect it will be over a year before I buy more.

I just bought some Sketchers that have two great features. 1. They are washable. 2. Slip on back. You don't know how many shoes I have to throw away because they stink or I've ruined the heals.

Note to self. Leave a couple yen in the wallet before turning it in.

I have found the same I just got the address off the I.D. and mailed to them with a note of where it was found.
What Im have done is parking lot clean up after a concert . A lot of change and folding money can be found doing that , me and two other guys divided close to hundred bucks of loose change and ones and fives no larger bills.

What do you do?

Return it money and all?
Return it without the money and say that's how you found it?
Take the money and throw out the wallet with credit cards?
Take the money and try to use the credit cards?
Go one step further and steal their identity?

There was a time in my life where I would have taken the money and returned the wallet. Lied and said the money was gone.

There was NEVER a time in my life where I would use the credit cards. I suspect some would say "that's okay the credit card company won't make them pay for what I purchased".

Even worse if they use your debt card. Pure scum.

Identity thieves should be executed. Send a message to other people who would do this.

I had a college roommate once who found a phone back in the 90's. The person who lost it called him and he fucked with this person for days. Told them to meet him and then he would not show up. Talk to them on the phone. Infuriate them. He ended up being a real creep but boy was this an early sign. Sociopath for sure.

Also regarding ethics. I suppose if it's a rich looking person and just $100 or a poor looking grandmother who's carrying around her rent in this purse you just found.

What if you found $30,000? I have to be honest. I might be tempted to keep it. I know that's a scummy thing to do but I'm just being honest.

Why am I posting this? I'm watching "Scary People". Remember those con artists murdering bodybuilders in Miami back in the 80's? The Rock did a movie about these guys. Just horrible people. Do anything to make money.

Personally, out of the goodness of my heart, if I found a wallet I would go murder someone and drop their wallet at the crime scene to frame them.

Return it all. It’s not your money or cards. You’ll feel better for having done so, and your karma will be good.

The perfect crime

The perfect crime is to wait in a male changing room. When the guy walks in on you, grab them and make them punch and scratch you and even grab your hand the knife is holding. Then cut your own throat. No one will believe them.

Less. Much of the value is in the setting.

If I found $100 in my parking lot I'd keep it. If I heard the person crying about losing it I'd give it back.

My very devout and naive mother-in-law was standing in the the line at McDonald's, wanting some fries, when she looked down and saw a note at her feet. She picked it up and unfolded a $1,000 bill.

Because of the fact that the McD's was in a bad neighborhood and because of the denomination of the bill, anyone less naive than MIL would have accurately determined that it was drug money, and just pocketed it.

But my very moral MIL handed it to the counter person, assuming they'd be honest and do their best to find the owner!

One thing about my very honest mother-in-law, on the few times we'd stop in a casino, she never left any less than $1K to the good! I guess honesty pays?

I didn't know $1000 bills existed. I asked AI

No, banks do not issue $1,000 bills. The United States stopped printing and circulating $1,000 bills in 1969. However, these bills are still legal tender and may still be in circulation, though they are rare and rarely used in everyday transactions.

You're weird.

A lot of people ask me why I'm not a stand up comedian. It's hard to come up with pre planned material. Working on and presenting a routine that actually makes people laugh? I can't imagine. But yes my humor is weird. Most good comics are weird right? Like Louis CK?

My friends love when their wives or girlfriends are around. They'll say "hey sealybobo, tell Melissa about your idea of the perfect romantic date." So I start off with all the amazing things a guy can do to impress a woman including a picnic. But then the date ends with me cutting off her head and leaving her in the woods. LOL

All my close friends are "weird" Sick sense of humor. Funny my one nephew and his friends are the same way but the other ones friends are not.

My buddy said something funny yesterday. He asked me what happened to my 28 year old Belarussian girlfriend. I'm mid 50's. I said "she left me for a richer guy. I was a cheap sugar daddy." Without even thinking he says "yea, instead of paying for her phone you'd just buy her some minutes".

Now that's some funny shit!

 

[BasicHumanUnit]

If you have a moral compass and a soul, there is no question.....find the owner and return it all.
This happened to me not too long ago. The poor woman cried that I actually gave it back to her and asked nothing.

If, however, you have no moral values and are a Godless heathen, you probably just grin and think it's your "lucky day".

This was like 30 years ago.

But, yeah, it's been a LONG time since they made any new ones.
