I hope the Bangerter kids will spend this money wisely.

UFhypzM3 · 05-20-2011, 11:12 PM

really not sure if i'd give it back haha...would be a tough call, alot of shit I could buy with 40k lol - for all I know it could have been dirty money that the original owner didn't deserve in the first place(or at least I'd tell myself that

)

Not often you hear stuff like this. Respect for that guy. I'm sure I'd do the same.

He prob thought the rapture was happening today. Had he found it on Sunday, he would have kept it.

I'd turn it in, too. If the money belonged to the wrong person he might come back looking for it in a bad way.

Seems like one of those typical stories of morale, but if true, I'd definitely help the guy out with priorities and eventually adopting a child provided the recipients didn't have any major financial problems of their own...

As for the tags, I can't stop laughing...

Well technically, when you buy the house, you buy the house and whatever is left in it when you move. Maybe it was meant for the dude to find that money. Honestly I would have kept it (shame on me).

What a great guy in this selfish world.

Gregxi · 05-24-2011, 07:23 AM

Mormons, always finding stuff.

When I bought my first house I searched the attic, I found some late 70's early eighties porn.........
I kept them

dr.jay · 05-24-2011, 01:28 PM

No chance of me giving it back

pc4400 · 05-24-2011, 01:32 PM

I'd keep it
If he wanted his kids to have it he would have mentioned it in his will. My guess was that he hid the money from his family for a reason. Most likely as insurance for himself. When he died he cashed out.
I wouldnt feel bad for keeping it.
