It's time again! Let's say you find a suitcase on the street containing 20 million dollars. You are completely desperate for money because there are bills you have to pay off. What would you do with this suitcase? Take it and keep the money or turn it in so that the owner could find it? As crazy as this sounds, I would turn it in. I'm a firm believer in karma and I know that if I were to take the suitcase, I would somehow lose the money. How? Why? First of all, it would be considered stealing by taking and keeping something that is not mine. Second of all, it's dishonest, which obviously produces bad karma. If I was meant to have the money, it would show up in another way.

Keep it. You're pretty retarded if you walk around with 20 million in a suitcase. If you're that dumb, you almost deserve to lose it.
I'd give a million or two to those in need in Asia though.

hmm... but who would keep $20 mil. in a suitcase? probably some mobster or croocked politician. i'd turn it in, only because people would eventualy catch on if all of a sudden I fell into that much money, not to mention all the people who would be after me (like the mobster or croocked politician).

well, my "evil brain side" tells me to keep it and my "good brain side" tells me to return it, (or maybe vice versa, im not sure), anyway is really tempting all that money, but i "think", i would return the money to the owner, who knows maybe the owner would give me at least a million as a reward...

yeah car, maybe the reward will reward you, but for me, I first wait to know who is that person who losed the suitcase, if is Bill Gates... no way!!!! but of course one person who have this money is a rich person this happened here in Brazil a years ago, a guy who work in an airport find U$ 10,000 in a bathroom, and he gave back to the owner. He didn´t win a reward in money from the owner, but he won national recognition and asked him what they want as reward, and he answered: " meet the president" find out something more abou this example of honesty (in english) www.hadeseh.com/english/archives/002017.phpen español<br>http://www.1a3soluciones.com/DOCUMENTOS/4/ARTICULOSTITULARES161ar.htm

I refuse to answer it. I have so many problems going on this week related to money that I dont think I would care about my karma since I pay for it already enough with my lowback................

Like you always say ! 20 millions doal in a suitcase, that's strange. its owner is for sure a rich man and (for you FuXor) a croocked politician ! SO I would decide to keep so money and then imagine what I could to with it... Give to people who need it or keep everithing for me... That's a though question ! I'll keep a part, and give the others part for people who really need it !

Its because it happened to me to bring at home a homeless all this past summer. She was 19 years old and I met her at the hospital when I burned my hand to second degree.... And so without the help of my father those past years, I would have finished homeless like her with this injury and so everytime I think of that could have happened to me, I think of homeless and so its my foundation and I thanks God everyday for the chance I had and that is why I cared for giving a bed, meals and clothes to this girl.
