How often do you find money in public?

In one night? I find that hard to believe

It was one wad of $100's

Finders keepers Baw!

I have found my own money a couple times in jacket pockets with the first cool snap. Pretty sure I've lost more cash than I've found

You would be surprised how much money people working at bars find. Just before last call, all the bartenders running around with flashlight, scanning under the bar, etc., before the lights come up.

Rarely but the one good score was over $300 and the best part was it was lost by a Florida Gator WR coach. We were staying at the Gator team hotel the night before the game and the wif spotted an envelope in the parking lot. It had the cash and the voter ID card of the coach. We beat the Gators. I mailed him the cash back and pointed out how badly his team had played and threw in a few Geaux Tigers! It was pretty fun, well worth the cost of being honest. He mailed me a football signed by all the coaches and a few of their star players and told me it was worth more than the money. They were all looking for work a few weeks later, so no.

Aside from that I've not found much.

if you find paper money you should ask everyone around to see whose it is. If noone claims it, then you should donate it to charity.

I found $50 once in Audubon Park.

One time I was washing clothes and I pulled out $400 in 20's and 50's. I had no recollection of how it got there, but I was dealing in those days so it probably came from some dope deal.

Once about 20 years ago, I found a $20 bill in a store parking lot around Christmas. Two days ago I found a $10 bill in the gutter of a neighborhood street while I was walking my dog. In between then and now, ain't found much.
