It's Coffee Break time! Hot Topic: Jackpot in the Dumpster?
Welcome to Mom to Mom's Tuesday Coffee Break!
What would you do if say... you found $20,000? Seriously. What WOULD you do? A man in Massachusetts had such luck when he was digging through a dumpster, opened a book and wah lah, there it was! He isn't sleeping so well though because he wants to do the right thing but hasn't been able to find the rightful owner.
Check HERE for more to this story.
1. So what would you do if you found $20,000?
2. Do you think you could sleep until you found the rightful owner?
3. If that money became yours in the end how do you think you would spend it?

Quoting Liz132:If I find $20,000 I'll send you one ;)
Quoting Cafe Beth:
I would want to see a picture of that. LOL!
Quoting Liz132:
What would I do? When I got home I'd be like "HALLELUJAH!" "THANK YOU JESUS!" as I tossed the money in the air and let it flutter down around me like green snowflakes. I wouldn't feel bad, I would buy a new car.
mmm, yummy!
Quoting Cafe Beth:
Isn't that wild? I've heard that happens a lot when people get a big amount of money like that. I just can't imagine...
This is for you to enjoy!

My mil actually got an inheritance for 20000. It was gone in 6 days. Don't ask me on what, because she has nothing to show for it and is in more debt now than before she got that money.
I would go to the police so we can find the owner. I would never just keep it and spend it. Not thats its just worng but one can get in trouble, like what if this was money from a robbery and the numbers on the money are known and the it would come back to me.
If they arent able to find the owner I would pay off some bills. And then some stuff around the house.
If no one claimed it, I could think of some things to do with it...lol
Family vacation-Disney World! lol
Right now, we are trying to plan an anniversary trip and I can't decide where I want to go
Quoting Cafe Beth:
A vacation would definitely be nice. Where would you want to go?
Quoting la_bella_vita:
Chai Latte please
I would try and find the owner. If not, I would use it of a vacation and save the rest
That's definitely something I hadn't thought of. Smart thinking!
Here's a little something for you to enjoy. :)

Thank you! :)
Quoting Cafe Beth:I imagine so many different ways this could have happened. I love to know what really DID happen. :)
This is for you!
Quoting Lizzys_mommy13:You would think someone would notice that much money missing. I definitely wouldn't make it too public because then somebody is going to of course claim it when it isn't theirs. I would try to find the owner and stop by the police station to see if anybody had reported money missing. After a month or so, if it wasn't claimed, if I really needed it I might use it. If not, I'd donate it to a charity that could use it.
