About once a week I go to the bank and get some walk around cash, been doing it for 20+ years. I’ve also been doing business with the same bank for as long. I use a money clip and the tellers are always kidding me about my expensive money clip, a clip from an old cell phone holster. it doesn’t bend and expands enough to carry a large amount of bill’s. Around 5 years ago I got a call from one of the tellers at the bank asking me if I was missing something and I said no. She chuckled and said maybe I should check my pockets, yep my money clip was missing. I keep it and my truck keys on the same side and I guess when pulling the key’s out in the parking lot I’d pulled the clip out also and never heard it hit the pavement. A young man about 20 years old with a wife and child had found it in the parking lot and took it into the bank and handed it to the teller. She gave me his name and phone number and I called and offered him 100 dollars for his honesty which he refused. In talking to him I found out he liked to hunt so I invited him out for a weekend deer hunt which he took me up on. he got two nice whitetail bucks and a 10 inch tom turkey. We filled his freezer. 8 days later one of my buddies mentioned needing a tech hand for his pump business and I called the young man up and sent him that way. He’s been working there ever since and makes a damn good living, he takes care of all my down hole pumps on the ranch. Big jump from a minimum wage stocker at our local Walmart. The money clip had 638 dollars in it.
That is a great story. It’s the way the world should work.
