    I got my wallet back today that I lost in town, with all my money in it, right down to the cent, and my medical card :D. So, do hand money. If you know exactly who lost it anyway.

    That kind of money should be under the mattress and not walking around with you.

    To claify this, I had the money with the coins, in a pikachu money box. I took it out, to go and spend it.

    Found an envelope with a couple of thousand punts about 20 years back. I was young, but old enough to know that I should hand it in. But also old enough to know that I could stash it and spend it in bits over a number of years and have an epic time.

    Anyway I picked it up, looked up and down the street and noticed a young woman from the other side of town looking very panicked (she didn't see me). She was looking under cars and stuff. It was obvious it was hers.

    So I quashed my dreams and gave it back. I felt sort of proud walking up to her to return her hard earned. I suppose I was thinking that she might give me a small reward. £20 was the figure I had in mind but I wasn't picky.



    She grabbed it off me and more or less shouted at me asking was it all there. I stood there stunned and she walked off.







    Bitch.

    All your savings (~€600) are kept in your wallet that you walk around with every day?

    I am a kind person and I would give it back. And I have no doubt that you would do the same. We shouldn't think that other people are not as good hearted as ourselves.

    I dont know if this is a bullshit after hours post or not ... cause thats alot of money to be carrying in your wallet. But more importantly, thats alot of money to make someone just keep it and throw away your wallet.
