A man returns $98,000 in cash to the previous owner of the desk he just bought off craigslist. The article was created by Charlene Sakoda and published on Odd News, later featured on Yahoo! News five hours ago today (11/11/13)
If I found nearly $100,000, I would turn it in to the police, but Noah Muroff actually sought out the seller, who has identified herself as Patty, and returned her income which she was saving at home. Patty rewarded the Muroffs’ and left a note of thanks, saying that she would be forever grateful to them.
Every once in a while there are Easter egg acts of kindness for only a few to witness, but everyone should be able to grasp something from this. Maybe someday there will be a time when you are able to help someone out and brighten their day. And kindness is not limited to someone who is ideal to care for others. Kindness is something everyone should possess and share with others to make the world a better place.

this is really inspirational because it shows how there are still some people in the world who cares about society and our country. They fully live up to the idea of respect and ownership
ReplyDeleteI am kind of surprised that the money was returned without the aid of police. I think I would have been nervous scouting out whom the money belonged to on my own.
ReplyDeleteI heard this story on the news the other night and it just made me so happy. These days it seems like all we hear about are killings and shooting, so to hear a story about good hearted people was great. These people could have kept the money for themselves, but were good hearted enough to return the money, kindness unfortunately being something of a rarity in modern times. I think it was actually better that they sought out the owner rather than the police to return the money. It just shows the good in their intentions.
ReplyDeleteWow. First of all, who saves that type of cash in a desk that they happen to sell? I mean, did the lady simply forget that she had such a lump sum of money in that desk? I am glad the man returned it, and I am glad that she rewarded him, but my goodness, it still makes me wonder how someone could forget something like that and just sell it off to a stranger on Craigslist.
