    This morning, biking into work, I found £10 lying by the side of the road. There was nobody else around.

    What should I do with it?
    Any suggestions?
    this morning ...

    Hi

    Try to find out who it belongs to (which is pretty hard I guess). If you can't, give it to a charity.

    Re: this morning ...

    Given where I found it, I am working on the assumption that it is virtually impossible to find the rightful owner of the money.

    Re: this morning ...

    You should leave it there, don't make it your problem, once you pick it up it is up to you to try to find the owner. I don't konw how you would do that in your situation, unless you post signs on the side of the road or something, but ya, after a while if nobody claims it, you should give it to charity but you are allowed to take a portion if you "need" it.

    Give it to a righteous cause. It is refreshing and reassuring to know we still have honest people in the world.

    Re: this morning ...

    You could give to charity, but ur still takin somethin thats not urs. If you take it ur jus mad greedy cuz u value money too much and thats not good. What if the person retraces his step and starts looking for it. Well i wouldnt pick it up. If i did id try to find the owner.

    i thought you have to ask around first or advertise it...(but don't tell them how much you found...then you'll know is he is the right owner).

    Only after that you can give too charity. If muslim we usually give to masjid.

    Because who knows...if the owner is poor.
