I found a $50 note beside a footpath at my University. I wondered what I should do.

I ended up going to the nearest reception area – “Commerce Central” and telling the lady that if anyone comes in inquiring about lost money to call me on my mobile phone number.

I currently still have the money. I think if no one calls within about a week, I’ll donate it to a charity.

As for the register mistake, I’m a firm believer that you should give the money back. I’ll never forget when I was working at the registers of a local supermarket, and a customer returned a $50 note to me, saying I had given her too much cash out and that she didn’t want me to get in trouble.

Now the dilemma with Karma is, how do you know having the cashier wasn’t Karma getting back at them for a wrong doing and/or good Karma coming your way? Karma is not some mystical force… Say you gave a homeless man $100 to get out of the cold, instead he goes and buys a gun and kills himself. Does bad Karma come back at you? Is this your fault for trying to help another human being? Is Karma transferable? If you lose money and someone who needs it, finds and uses it to help them pay their rent, is that good Karma onto you for loosing money? LOL Having said all that, there is nothing like giving something back to the person whom lost it. There is also nothing like finding money to help you eat when you had nothing. It’s possible that if you return the money to the person who lost it might help you in ways you could never imagine, and it’s also possible that the same person could take their money back and walk away with nothing more than a thanks.

The only time I’ve ever found cash was when I went to the bank machine and found that someone had left Â£10 in it. It was in a busy shopping mall and the people who had left it were actually walking away from the machine at the time – I could see them. I called to them, followed them still calling – and then they turned around a corner and I couldn’t tell who was who anymore.

I went back to the machine, got my own money and waited for about half an hour for them to realise and come back. No sign. I can’t even remember what I did with the money – it probably went on coffee for Mum and I later on that day. Can’t say I didn’t try, though.
