Another classic example of a real American ~!~!~!~ - haikuman - 06-20-2013 http://news.yahoo.com/texas-teacher-finds-returns-bank-143120464.html Texas teacher finds, returns bank bag with $20K Unemployed teacher finds, returns about $20K to bank, bag discovered on College Station road Associated Press – 18 hrs ago COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) -- An unemployed teacher was driving home after dropping her cat off at a veterinarian when she noticed a bag on the street. She stopped but doubted it contained anything, but soon discovered the bag was holding about $20,000. Candace Scott said the bag had a Chase bank label, so she promptly delivered it to a nearby branch. She pound on the glass around 8 a.m. Tuesday to get the branch manager to come to the door before the bank opened for business, The Eagle newspaper reported (http://bit.ly/1bVj7OR). The banker thanked Scott for returning the cash. "She told me I'm the most honest person in the world, and I said 'or the dumbest,'" Scott said.

WAG. When I was younger I would have returned it. (Today) I'd have a hard time with not viewing it as 2k of annual return. Re: Another classic example of a real American ~!~!~!~ - decay - 06-20-2013 if Chase noticed an error in your account where you had been overcharged, I'm sure they'd be JUST as quick to return your money, uh-huh...

Re: Another classic example of a real American ~!~!~!~ - Speedy - 06-20-2013 Never set your bag on the top of your car (but on the hood in front of the steering wheel.) Never set you money bag with $20k in it on the bumper of your armored car.

Re: Another classic example of a real American ~!~!~!~ - Mr Downtown - 06-20-2013 I don't understand the "real American" part of the headline. Is the assumption that this could never ever happen in Canada or Japan? Re: Another classic example of a real American ~!~!~!~ - Paul F. - 06-20-2013 Mr Downtown wrote: Of course it would't....
