  1. 1. What would you do if you found 3 x $100 notes on the road near your kids primary school?

    • Keep it and sleep easy knowing you had a win (which doesn't happen everyday)
      15
    • Hand it in to the local police station and hope it magically makes it's way back to it's rightful owner
      15
    • Hand it in to the school office and hope it magically makes it's way back to it's rightful owner
      6
    • Share the experience in detail with the school principal, keep the money and sit tight for a week and wait if anyone goes to the office in the hope there is still honesty in the world

Please help....

The wife and I are having a moral dilemma...

I realise this is not football related but I need as much exposure before the mods rightfully shift it to the General Discussion section :)

 

Hand it in to the local cop shop. 

If u r meant to have it the cops will return it to u after no one collects it. 

Good luc. 

Put it on us to make the 8.

 

Put it on a quaddie, loading up on the last leg. Or donate it to the school, demanding they rename the canteen 'Krazy Jays'

Return to police, give them the details of where it was found and what date/time.

If anyone has reported it missing, they can give correct amount and details, they get it.

If nobody claims it, it goes back to you.

All good.

Agreed. It is probably the days takings from the local weed dealer at the school, won't claim it

I'd buy the whole primary school drugs.

Also - probably don't give out any more details on Demonland, or we'll all be calling the police saying we lost 3x$100 notes

;)

 

Do you want to know what is 'right thing' to do, or what you 'should do'??

Which I did, outside of a Primary School


What about option 5: Donate it. No guilt for you and no worries about honesty from others.

 

First thought was 'finders, keepers'.  It could have belonged to any passer by and not anyone at the school

Then I read the early posts and felt really guilty:wacko:.

So if you feel really really bad, report it to the police (hold on to the money if that is allowed), and give them contact details so if someone reports it they can call you. 

After a reasonable wait eg  1 weeks revert to first thought:  'finders, keepers'.

Keep it. Anyone that has a $100 note to begin with, can afford to lose it imo.

I found it. Public property. No owner. Is mine.

Finding cash in a public area and keeping it is still stealing. I'd be handing it to the local Police, chances are no one will claim it and you'll get it anyway, clear conscience.

Just buy it for the teachers... they need it more

Who is going to know you "stole" it? Anyway, this is a moral dilemma, not an issue of legality. 

I'd keep it, even if it is breaking the law.

No doubt. Kids are already drugged up on ADHD medication or gender realignment pills.

Booooooooooriiiiiiiiinnnnnnnngggg!!!!!

Assume the money was intended for a drug deal, and by keeping it, you're doing a good deed.

What happens if the person who lost it knows roughly where they dropped it. There's CCTV cameras in the area which capture old man KrazyJay putting it in his pocket and walking away. KrazyJay's kids go to the school and he's recognised on the CCTV footage. Parents will talk and his kids will have to leave the school. They'll grow up hating their Dad and may become criminals themselves. 

 

Just saying....

And there's already too many Collingwood supporters in this world. 

 

If you are really worried about it, go to the cop shop hand it in, no one says boo after a few months and you get the phat lootz.

Interesting thread tho...

I would've gone for 4 if not for the "Share the experience in detail with the school principal".  Shady buggers would work a kickback scheme involving the janitor..

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
