my kid was playing on a swing in a community park in a neighboring town (an expensive place to live). She found a big baggie of cash, looked like mostly singles, but it was maybe 2" thick. I told her to put it back and not mess with it. Maybe it was someones birthday money, maybe it was some other nefarious source. no matter what I don't need that in my life, I definitely don't need my kid dealing with it.

Throw out the cash and You'll have Yourself a nice wallet.
At least recycle it, unless you're in a country using plastic bills.
remember the 3 Rs, Reuse, Reutilize, Recycle
reuse it!
Reduce was the first one, but I suspect the plastic industry might have replace it.
I know because this already happened to me, I returned it. The owner was very surprised that the money was not missing when I gave him the wallet but didn't even pay me a coffee, no regerts tho.
If there's no ID and no way to determine who it belongs to, finders keepers.
A month or two ago I found $40 someone had taped up to the bus stop with a sticker. You better believe I snatched that shit up. Who am I to question the ways of people who go around leaving money at bus stops with stickers?
I would fulfill my legal obligation by reporting that cash as missing to the police, if not claimed I get to legally keep it (the only reason why I would do this is because that sort of money tends to come with severe problems)
Funny enough it was a cop's wallet, what are the chances!
Hell no in that case I aint taking the money. If a cop left a wallet with that much money its probably because they're running some sick prank to try to get some poor soul arrested.
I think he meant cops are not honest and will just pocket the money themselves instead of looking for the owner
A wallet like that doesn't belong to someone that calls the police. I'd just keep walking.
Look for an ID. Return it. Or give it to the cops.
I seen that money. No way I am keeping a sus wad of cash tyvm.
Lmao, clearly its a trap. Nobody puts that much money in a wallet like that. Just walk away.
It's just like Jesus said: "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and render unto me all of that cash in that inexplicably bulging wallet over there."
Check for ID; if none, count and photograph it before turning it in to the police department.
which god?
some would teach that it is yours and should be taken, for a wide variety of reasons. some wpuld teach to give it to the needy as well as everything else you own. some would teach that it has no value and to leave it to nature. some would teach it is evil and must be destroyed. some would say to offer at as sacrifice. some would say to enshrine it.
there's so many ways this could go.
Cash is mine, if it has an id and i know the address, ill put wallet and cards thro their mailslot. If i dont know addy ill drop the wallet in a mailbox. I think thats a thing.
There is clearly no ID in there, so what they want me to do. Give it to the cops?
