That homeless guy would be perfect to put in charge of the IRS.
Why would anyone have $42K on them when traveling? I mean sure on a Friday night trip to the liquor store maybe, but that's local and this wasn't even a weekend.
I have running fantasies of finding lots of money, which I would keep quiet about. I fantasize about finding a bag like this which contains clear evidence of it being part of illegal activity, which would justify me keeping it in my mind. The other is that while hiking in the gold rich mountains of California, I would stumble upon a 200 pound gold nugget. Again, nobody would be told, but good things would just start happening for friends out of nowhere.
BTW, Thanks Lem for the compliment, but although I could have done it just as easy as this guy did, I didn't. He did. I wish I knew him. I'd buy him a beer. Not one of those fancy expensive ones in the bottle , but a cold one.
Bagowater: There is this movie that you should not see, and its called "A Simple Plan", because if you see it, it will forever ruin your running fantasy of finding lots of money.
I would be conflicted on the Lerner payoff. I would feel fine keeping it, since neither the sender nor the recipient deserves it, and I know people who do. But I would also want the proof out there. I think proving the corruption would win out, unless it was like $5 million. Then, the hell with politics.
Of course, even with that proof, people like Ritmo would say the evidence was "anecdotal", and I bet the Obama campaign would end up with the money back somehow.
It's funny how when you've experienced being flat broke, the idea of money, the reality of having even 5 dollars, becomes entirely different and entirely enveloping.
I think of how much I owe, and how little it would have seemed to me just 5 years ago, and how insurmountable a sum it is now.
It's relative, and terribly relative when you're at the bottom.
I remember when I was broke, and could make a beer last an hour. I've only asked a woman out on a date once in my whole life, and it was then.
I've been out with women plenty of times, but only after I met them and already knew them. Only once have I asked a woman I didn't know to go out with me.
I was 23 years old, and had less than 20 dollars to my name till next payday, so we took the bus to the beach, had pizza and sat on the sand with a cheap bottle of wine and watched the sunset. I can't believe she said yes to a date on a bus.
Funny that the one time I had the guts to ask, was the time I was least able to impress and bleached clean of any confidence.
Here's a dilemma: You manage to intercept $500K from the Obama campaign fund on it's way to pay off Lois Lerner to keep her quiet.
What do you do?
I don't know if Lois needs payoff money. She's probably a true believer.
I'd take the money, photograph it all spread out on a bed, and hire a bunch of layers. I'd make sure every step I took was transparent and in the public record. Then, I would go to NBC and they would help uncover the real story! (ROFL) oops. Perhaps not. The MSM wouldn't even care. You couldn't even go to The Top Cop, Eric Holder.
Our system is so corrupt, the left can do what they want without consequence. Now I'm so depressed, even 500K seems boring. I'd give most of it to Palladian.

This guy has to be related to bags.

You turn it in?
Bags, I was talking about the guy that started the fund to help out the homeless man.
That's the kind of thing, you, bags, would do.

Forever.
I understood you, Lem.

I saw that. A Simple Plan. the money was found on a plane crash.
Good movie.

You can't train any of the Olympic lifts until you've got bumpers, a platform, and the balls to dump the bar absolutely.
A Simple Plan was shot in Ashland, Wi. Billy Bob Thornton, who gave a superb performance, said he almost froze to death.
The IRS will be trying to take their cut of the loot.
I'm surprised the Boston cop turned the money in. Sorry for being cynical. This is a great story.
