Title: I Found A Wallet And I Returned It
Post by: Maestro Minded on September 17, 2002, 02:08:46 AM
i remember an old thread where tom187 found a wallet with cash and never returned it to the righfull owner, and when i said that i wouldnt act like him yall were like "yea, right"


well it happened last week

i found a wallet containing:

~300 dollars
VISA and other credit card
a 1 month buss-and-subway card
identification card

i looked up the name in the online-yellow pages, got her cell phone number and gave her back her wallet


im not telling this to show how "nice and kindhearted" i am.... im telling to prove that im a man of my words

You did it because your a righteous brother.  You are not a selfish, leach of this world.  Allah sees all that we do because he is the creator of all things.  And your reward will be doubled in the hereafter!! Thank you for sharing this story!!

let me ask you this if you give it back will you be expecting a reward for it or not? shit if i decide to give it back im expecting a reward! cause you have to go through the trouble of finding this person and getting him his shit

you know its cool what you guys saying about the satisfaction but shit if i was returned a wallet i know i would cough up some cash for the homie that returned it to me cause i think its fucked up if you dont cause you got to realize this guy acctually went through the effort of finding you. but like i said if i returned it i would be expecting a reward but if i dont get it its cool im not gonna trip im just expecting one

Word i would kinda feel bad..if it was a wallet with i.d in it i would probably return it but if i just found money in a plain envelope on a street somewhere with nothing written on it best believe i am keeping it.

My lil brother lost his wallet once and the person was nice enough to return it.....but he took the fuckin 8 bucks that was in there lol

I have found money and I have taken it. It's definitely not right and it always comes back to get me so it's always best to give it back to the owner.. You a noble man I-Bo, props.

thats nothing compared to what my mom found, she was shopping down here at a supermarket, when a lady droped her purse, cause she was carrying too many bags and stuff, and didnt even realize it, and we thought it was a plastic bag, so I went outside to get in the car, I didnt see, but my mom picked it up and opened it and there was a check booklet, visa, ATM, and about 400$ of cash, I was about what 12 years old that time, and the lady was in her car about to leave, my mom ran up to her and said u droped ur purse, u wont belive what the lady did, she was kissing and hugging my mom for hours and wouldnt let go, and wanted too reward her with 100 bucks, but she didnt take it..But If I had picked it up, I woulda taken it, I was just 12 years old lol, 'but my mom returned it..

HUGE props to Ibo...U are a good man...I would have done the same...My mom lost her wallet with hella money in there a while ago, and somone returned it...Just imagine how shitty she woulda felt if no one woulda returned it...That's just wrong...Do u guys ever have that feeling when u lose something and u just wanna kill everybody? Well, I know how that feels, so I'd definently return the money...PeAcE
