Las Vegas cabbie turns in $300,000 left in back seat - report

I still think it's bizarre - how do you "forget" $300K you are carrying around in a paper bag?

I can't honestly claim that I would *absolutely* return a big filled with $300K in it.

How do you get $300,000 into a paper bag? That must have been one big paper bag.

10,000 of honest money beats 300,000 of dishonest money.

God answers prayers.

After much discussion with my wife about this story, I came to the conclusion that if it had happened to me, I would have taken 10% off the top, then turned the rest in.

That pretty much solves my moral dilemma with that hypothetical.

Once I saw a guy drop a $20 bill. I stood on it until the guy was a good distance away, and then stuffed it in my pocket.

Then, as I was walking, it worked its way out of my pocket, and was gone.

God send you little messages now and then. One should heed them.

I would have returned the entire $300K.

When you are rich enough that $300K is "carry around money"
