Very honest Real Estate Agent!!!!!!beaniemonster [43 Posts] http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=287962 This was in the news today and i just couldn't resist posting it. Seriously, WOULD YOU TAKE THE MONEY??????? We only get one life to live, live life and remember the little things L.A Aussie [1492 Posts] No. Cheers, "we get sent lemons; it's up to us to make lemonade" Opportunity In ... [123 Posts] Interesting yes. Its perhaps a little dicey to be too opinionated at this stage. Opportunity in Everything pinknic20 [53 Posts] No way you would have to know you where going to get caught fair enough if it was a small amount but 11mil come on who wouldn't notice that eventually. nicole peternaomi1 [6 Posts] Its just like Monoploy. Bank error in your favour. Except its a little more than what you get in Monopoly. If i were him, i would have pleaded the influence Monopoly had on his values. ;) crj [278 Posts] A search on victor ollis on this site brings up some interesting reading http://www.propertyinvesting.com/forums/property-investing/general-property/6635 Xenia [1229 Posts] Banks can make mistakes too just like everyone else. An honest person would question it and give it back, just because they made a mistake didn't give him the right to spend it! If you are at a restaurant and they bought out the wrong meals and put them in front of you would you eat them? Most of us would tell them they are not ours knowing that someone else is waiting for them!

But even if it were a paltry amount. I don't think there would be many people who wouldn't point out when a salesman had undercharged them. Bad karma and all that.. Plus it is important to teach our children to do the right thing. (my elder two sons have both lost their wallets on separate occassions. Both ended up at the police station, money intact). When one of them found a wallet with $400 in it, he handed it in and never considered keeping it. I remember my mother telling me a story about finding a paper bag of money on the streets of melb 35 odd yrs ago. There was $1000+ dollars in it(a very great deal in those days) and being the honest woman she was, took it to the police station. Some years later when she was less naive, she thought that the police probably had 'a jolly good party' on that money. Masih [43 Posts] As long as I remember I have always returned someone's money or property if I found it or saw them dropping it. Maybe except for one time when I was a kid. I was buying a packet of biscuits. When I paid for it; the shopkeeper gave me my own money back and also gave me extra change on top of it. I didnt realise it at first but after going away from the shop when I noticed the error...greed inslaved me and didnt return the money But now I wouldnt even think of doing something like that. I would feel guilty for the rest of my life. |
