One good deed inspires another, it appears.
After Glen James, a homeless Boston man, returned a backpack full of about $40,000 in cash and travelers checks to its owner, a fund-raiser for the good Samaritan, with a goal of raising $50,000, was set up by a Midlothian, Va., man who has never been to Boston.
In under 24 hours, the “GoFundMe” website, made by Ethan Whittington, 27, raised more than $20,000.

Nice to see some good news for a change.
Sometimes homeless people (depending on how long they’ve been homeless, and other factors weighed in there too) prefer the lifestyle. It will be interesting to see what he does with the $$.
The man who lost the money offered no reward to James....just saying.
who the heck loses $40,000 cash in a backpack???????????????
The guy who lost the cash was from China.
It was a guy from China. Perhaps he was recruiting voters for Hillary 2016?
The true test: offer him a job.
I hope someone helps him manage the donations and this allows him to get a new start in life.
John Huang, or Jonnie Chung?
My guess is that a Clinton is involved somehow.
Well, it's definitely possible considering Cankles running in 2016.

Ha, good one. It seems many from China carry large amounts of cash in that culture.
Um.....why? Did you find one? If so, it’s probably mine. It’s a backpack, right? With $40,000 in it? Who but the rightful owner could give you a description?
I hope someone helps him manage the donations and this allows him to get a new start in life.That would be a good direction; kind of you to be supportive. :)
“The true test: offer him a job.”
