Okay, first of all he it's not like he picked up 185k in cash and turned it in. It was a check, he couldn't have cashed it. Secondly, if he didn't turn it in and just got rid of it, the people wouldn't have lost their money, they'd simply need to have a stop put on the check and get another one made up. Thirdly, why would you think appropriate behavior deserves any more of a reward than he got? Personally, I think $50 for taking the time to return the check was more than generous.
True. I don't think I would have accepted the $50.
Someone tried to give me a rewerd one time for finding their dog. I did not accept it - I was just glad to see the dog back with his owner.
I found 100 bill one time when I was working at Dillard's. I took it to customer service and gave it to them in case anyone was looking for it. Word got around the store that I found it and on one of the floors, there was a woman freaking out that she had lost some money. She got her money back and wanted to give me half of it. I didn't accept but the next day I came into work and there was a flower arrangement, balloon and card thanking me for turning in the money.
I felt good about her getting the money back but I didn't expect anything in return.
