You have found a $100,000 in small unmarked bills. It is in a brown paper bag.

You have decided to keep it.

Do you tell your wife or GF????

The answer is much, much more tricky.

I would not tell her.

Quality does not occur by chance. It is the result of intelligent activities.

nope. i wouldn't tell anyone. period. no secret is safe if 2 people know

i'd hide it under the porch(or someplace very secret and safe). when i was out of town on business i'd pay cash for everything and submit receipts for reimbursement. i figure i'd legitimize about 3,000 to 5,000 a year (hotels, airlines and rental cars don't take cash, unfortunatly). that dough would go in the investment account

on vacations it would be all cash too.

i'd be very careful and all of it would directly benefit my wife and kids

i'd never spend the cash near home

I don't think I'd tell my wife because as stated above, then it wouldn't be my secret.

Besides if she knew she would give it all to our grandkids.

First of all, I wouldn't keep it. I'd turn it in to the police.

But if I did for some reason keep it, of course I'd tell my wife.

If I had already decided to keep it....I would fly immediately to Montreal and buy you, Marty Eddy and the entire gang a Smoked Meat Sandwhich from Scuartz's deli and Sig V1's after at the local watering hole.

What the heck else would I do Mike?

I'd tell her I found $10,000 so she doesn't get suspicious when I buy expensive stuff, but not the whole $100,000 - she'd expect half or more.

The first thing I'd think about upon finding $100,000 unmarked bills would be to tell my beautiful, lovely, adorable wife...wait a darn minute...I'm single...

I love being single...makes your decisions so much easier.

Your wife was looking over your shoulder when you wrote that wasn't she?
