I was helping my friends kids do a park clean up and one of them found a large wad of cash (less than $200). I told the one who found it that I need to check with the police before she can have it, just in case it belongs to someone in need.
But is that a thing? I didn’t want to say she could keep it right away because I want to set a good example. But it isn’t a ton of money so I assume the police would not be interested. So what do?
No clue where your downvote is from but there isn’t a single cop who wouldn’t pocked $200 lol. Don’t give it to the kid though, OP. Take the group out for ice cream or something and pay yourself for your time spent cleaning the park.
If I was that kid, the lesson I would learn from that is to not tell anyone in the future.
Children do not need $200, simple truth, especially not $200 that’s by all accounts not really theirs. It’s time for OP to give a white lie that they tracked down the original owner and buy Timmy & Co. some ice cream cones and call it a day
I’ve just accepted that Lemmy is full of absolute clowns who will downvote literally anything for no reason. I bet this comment gets downvoted too. I have accepted my fate.
You got one downvote on your original comment. Calm your tits. Fictional internet points mean nothing at all. ‘Oh no, a faceless stranger didn’t concur’.
Wise up.
I was replying to a comment that said they didn’t understand why someone would downvote my comment. I replied saying there are always people who downvote for no reason. I suppose you are one of those people. Thank you for proving my point. No need to be a dickhead about it.
Everything I said stands true. You’re still doubling down and whining that someone disagreed with what you said ‘for no reason’ as though your words are the be all and end all. Once again, wise up.
