    I'd call the police and tell them I just found $5000 with no identification. If I lost the money, I'd hope the person who found it would do the same. Besides, what goes around comes around - and I don't need bad karma waiting for me.

    Well, if there's no identification at all i can keep it and use it for my college expenses, and some i'll share it to the church, hey, i did'nt steal the money i found it i did'nt know where it belongs to, if i return it to the police do u think they will save it for the right owner it's cast money u kno, i don't trust people that much so i rather use that amount for something useful that way it can help me and other people that needed it, simple! And thank for that person who owns the money.

    Either ways I found it, if theres no identification what would i do with that kind of money. Who knows Oprah Winfrey put it there so I can find it. Anyway, for me if i need the money and found that kind of amount ill use it for a good cost. Its not karma, i know that i didnt steal it, nobody knows that i found that kind of money and at the same time i needed it for my family. If im short of money ill keep it to myself for my families needs. If i dont have a family ill help those poor children in my neighborhood so they can have something to buy for food. God will not punish me coz i did it with a good heart. I know God will reward that person who lost the money coz it helps needy people.

    incest it immediately! that way if the money is claimed, you at least made a profit of it while it was being held by you, totally legal and you never spent it! I recommend an online brokerage firm that has good beginner qualitys {like tutorials or an easy to understand set up}, i use zecco, better then schwab, etrade, etc. they are the only ones with free stock trades, no minumums..all the others will charge you fees for trading, but compare and see for yourself. Good luck and happy investing!
