GRIZ326 Points: Join Date: Jun 12, 2006 Status: offline	I just watched a movie called, "A simple plan." It presents a moral dilemma. The characters find a private plane that crashed in a remote area with $4,000,000 USD. They decided to take the money...and of course their "simple plan" becomes very complicated. If you found a huge amount of money in a remote location, would you keep the money??? Or would you turn it over to the police??? This is a fairly common fantasy for many people. What would you do? Keep the money??? Turn it in???

After I get through the troubles in my life, I will try to find the person who lost the money. If possible, I would pay some interests.

It is just like APAULT said, only matter of risk analysis.
In other thread was asked if western men are opportunists. I this kind of case all people are opportunists.
YVONNE, I don´t believe a second anyone would even think finding the owner of the money. All kinds of explanations would be found fo keeping it. " Cash money, it must be criminal money" or "If someone can afford to keep this much money in cash, there must be a lot more in bank"
As obvious, I have some kind of criminal mind ; )

Well, Finnish law says finder is justified to get 10% reward, so it would be 400,000 dollars.

I would return the money, anyone believe me?
