Good on them for returning the cash. What strikes me is how someone forgets about $98,000 dollars stashed in a desk. I'm wondering if the seller of the desk previously got the desk with the money already stashed in it from an old timer that passed away and didn't know about the cash until now.

Do the right thing, for the right reason, every time.

A report I heard on the radio stated that it was her inheritance that she stashed behind one of the drawers. When she went to sell the desk she could not find it and figured she moved it to another location and could not recall where. If it were me and my desk, I would have torn that desk apart trying to locate that money. I am glad to hear that the buyer of the desk had the right idea and returned the cash. Can't say I would have made the right decision. I like to think that I would have done the same thing, but I just don't know. $98 grand is a lot of money and it would definately help me out. Damn, did I just label myself a dirtbag?

In that case, I'd return it to the American people. One beer purchase at a time...

I would return it. I have found two peoples wallets just as they were lost them. It would of been so easy to pick them up and keep walking, instead I hailed them and told them that they'd dropped their wallets. Both were happy, I felt good as that's the way I'd like to be treated.

Buy some toys, some corn wiskey (legal stuff just to be safe) and stuff the rest under a mattress. Just use a little to each month for grocery shopping and you save more earned money in the bank. At least thats what I would figure. Of course someone would eventually raid or steal from under my mattress and I would be out of luck. ;-(

I guess that makes me an asshole then. :-( :-(

First, I'd want to make sure it wasn't drug money....then if I could find out who it belonged to, I'd return it. I don't think I'd turn it into the police as they would hold it for quite sometime or they might even decide it was drug money and confiscate it.

pay for gas/ incidentals/small bullshit.






It's all been drug money at one time or another.
If somebody lost or tossed that amount they'd be dead already.

Find out if it was drug money?

If it was drug money they'll be "contacting" you shortly to inform you.

It turns out she had stashed her inheritance there and, inexplicably, forgotten about it.

Now that would really piss me off if I returned it and they cared so little about $96K that they "forgot about it."

Maybe it was drug money after all. Good thing he returned it before shit got all No Country for Old Men on their asses.

That's all I would be worried about... some crazed druglords looking to get their money back and leaving my skinned body behind as a warning.......
