Speaker 1 (00:00):
You chapped it.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
So we're playing it at M Spree and C the podcast.
Claudia I said to us today that she found some
money in a public place.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
My favorite pastime finding money.
Speaker 4 (00:13):
Yeah, honestly, if you know me, you know what I
love coin.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
I love a note.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Yeah, finding a note. Do you guys know I bought
You don't know because they haven't told you. I bought
a jacket of trade me the other day, like a
secondhand blazer trade me, and I was like, I better
get this dry clean Someone might have died in that.
And I took it into the dry cleaner and I
was like, oh, I should check the pockets. Wait, I
haven't even worn it. Why should I check the pockets. No,
I should chick the pockets. Anyway, five dollar notes.
Speaker 5 (00:38):
And.
Speaker 6 (00:40):
So you really got five dollars off it.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Five dollars off it was ever, honestly, put a real
pipp in my step. For the rest of you.
Speaker 6 (00:48):
You kind of bought her. You're like, oh, I feel
a note.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Five dollars fifty man, No, I feel like fifty would
be fantastic, obviously, But there's something about a note, you know,
finding an I.
Speaker 6 (00:58):
Am always worried when I see a note on the
ground though, that it's going to be attached to a
string and someone's going to be pulling my leg.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
I feel I'm on the ground. I'm worried it will
be glued to the ground and then.
Speaker 6 (01:06):
I'm gonna be on a reality TV show called.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Ah Exton Koocher is waiting to jump out from behind
a bush cornea. Tell us where you found the money
and how much money you found?
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Okay, On the way home yesterday, I made a very
last minute decision to go to the supermarket.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Right it's the one I go to every week.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Walking in the front door behind another group of people
by the way, so they stepped over what I found
right at the entry. I look down and I can
stuff money from a mile away. I can see it
at the corner of my eye. I know it's there.
I look down, I see green. Ooh, that's all green,
folded up, so it's obviously been in someone's pocket, so
(01:44):
of course I've been down and pick it up unfolded.
I see orange, twenty five dollars of cash.
Speaker 6 (01:53):
Twenty five cash, not the bonus five dollars.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
When you said orange, my mind went to fifty hundreds,
but twenty five dollars.
Speaker 6 (02:03):
Yeah, and this was a pretty public place, like a supermarket.
Did you look around?
Speaker 4 (02:07):
I did, yeah, and everyone was just mining their own business.
Even the security guard wasn't like.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
They're doing anything.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
It definitely didn't fall from the people that he need
to market before you.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
I saw them step over it. They didn't even look
at it. Yeah, so I've picked it up, and my
immediate thought is, well, this is a gift from the universe,
Thank you so much.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I will be keeping that.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
But then I held on to it for about ten
seconds and then I was like, oh, no, I need
to call my dad and I need to get a
moral compass on this. Okay, So I called my dad
in the middle of the supermarket, whispering just in case
someone overheard me gofounds of money, and I said to him,
if you were in the situation hypothetically, what would you do?
Speaker 6 (02:42):
And I assume what your dad said, Yeah, yeah, don't
call me unless it's emergency. Keep the money by Claudia.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Yeah, my dad would have said take the money and run. Yeah,
he would said. He would have said buy some beers.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Yeah, my dad said, what if that was some one's
last twenty five buzz.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Dead per and.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Even always listened to my dad. So you know what
I did, what I handed it in?
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Yeah, my god, person, good person.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
I know that.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
My issue with handing it in is that you rely
on a good person chain of reaction. You rely on
the person you're handing it into to be a good person.
But actually that doesn't matter, no, because it doesn't matter
because in the eyes of the universe, you've done the
right thing and you have the good karma, and you
have because you're ever going to get it back anyway,
but you know that you did the right thing.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I've got the moral high God.
Speaker 6 (03:34):
If that was the universe trying to reward you for
doing something good, and you just keep handing it back
in and it was like I put that there for you, Claudia.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
I did consider that too, But when I handed it in,
the reaction I got was, oh, a guy literally five
minutes ago was looking for.
Speaker 6 (03:46):
That dude, so they know it's lost.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Okay, they may come back for it.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Oh that feels good, so at least.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
They didn't see me pick it up to walk away.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I feel like you should get I feel like you
should get twenty five dollars for doing the right thing.
Speaker 6 (03:57):
At least, I would say even thirty dollars for doing
that good deed. Of handing that twenty five dollars, I.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Don't know who from.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
I think the.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Universe will reward me it on the way the government.
Speaker 6 (04:06):
From the government, I feel like, how do you have
spent that twenty five dollars on something not sinister, like,
I don't know, like a healthy dinner. I would feel
all right to sleep at night. That's just me personally.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah, what so you are the charity?
Speaker 6 (04:20):
Well, just because if I brought something bad, I'd be like, oh,
I feel guilty for spending this money on that naughty thing.
But if I spent it on something good, I'd be like, Okay,
I can sleep at night. Okay, it's what you spend
it on that matters.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Okay, that's an interesting way of justifying it.
Speaker 6 (04:33):
Also, I lost twenty five dollars at the supermarket.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
Oh interesting, Well, I know where you can find it.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
It's at the service desk.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I once found sixteen hundred sixteen thousand tie bart. Oh,
that's the conversion rate on that though it was about
eight hundred bucks time.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
That's heaps. What do you do?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I handed it in because I found it at the
place that I was working. I was like, if I
don't handle this in this is.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Steel, what's the threshold of keep verse hand?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
It's a great question. It's a great question, Claudia.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Ten dollars, keep fifty dollars hand in.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
One note, keep two notes handed?
Speaker 6 (05:11):
My financial status good?
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Keep bad?
Speaker 6 (05:14):
Keep?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Yeah, fair enough the Thai bart I got it back? O.
Speaker 6 (05:19):
Wait really?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah? I handed it into my workplace and they said
all good. Because it was a terrorist place that I
was working. They said, it's unlikely anyone will come back
for this, and if they don't, you'll get it. We
have to keep it for three months.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Oh and then it came back to me perfect.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (05:36):
Was it in a briefcase?
Speaker 2 (05:37):
No, it was in a crummy envelope.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
Oh wow, that was really suspicious.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Yeah, it was in like a half torn envelope.
Speaker 6 (05:43):
My friend and I once found one hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Yes, kept it. Probably the best day ever for you.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
Yeah, we were children.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
It was awesome.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
How big can we get in the finding money stakes? Yeah?
Finding a note is fun, But I want to talk
people who found real money and what did you do
with that? What happened to that money? I assume if
it was really big. You handed it in, you may
not have, and we won't judge, and we can keep
you anonymous. But what did you do? Could we find
the person who found a decent amount of money and
(06:12):
what was the eventual outcome for that. Remember that story
that we had a little while ago about those people
in christ Shirt who found one hundred and twenty five
grand in their ceiling. Yeah, yeah, and it was drug money.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
The police were like, you got to hand that in,
and then they ended up going to them and being like, hey,
if you can't get it back to the owner, we
should get.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
Some of that money fair because it's not their.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
I made a pretty good argument for USMS Free and
Clint podcast Cordia's cash conundrum today. She found twenty five
dollars at the entrance to the supermarket, folded up at
twenty and a five, and she did the right thing
after calling her father for advice, and she handed it in.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, I'm so nice.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
You could get it back. Someone's sticked in and said
that was one hundred percent someone's tenny money that Cordia found.
Call me out of the game. But at Tenney's twenty
five dollars, Now, I don't know, have they gone up.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
Fifty fifty dollars? Yeah, I assume just from word on
the street. I'll say a lot of these things on
nine six, nine six, I'll like relieve that key. Weis
are like, yeah, I handed it back in. I handed
it back in.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
And it restores your faith in humanity.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Of that.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
There's a little bit of people who handed it and
that got it back too, So your your good persons
has been returned to you. We'll get to those, but
first Anonymous high Anonymous, Hi, are you good? Did you
find some money? Anonymous?
Speaker 7 (07:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I found lots over time.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Kay, A little bit of a magpie must.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Be a yeah. I've found lots of wallets and things,
and I always hand those in, you know, because they've
got people's personal details. Of course, I would never think
about taking money out of somebody's wallet, but I found
one of living in the UK, I found like twenty
pounds in a cigarette packet. I reckon that was some
dodgy money. I was on the cafe table and when
(08:02):
I found one hundred dollars on the dance floor in
a nightclub.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
One dance floor.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
And I found one hundred and one hundred and twenty
Australian dollars in the bottom of a washing machine at
the hotel.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
You've got good luck.
Speaker 6 (08:17):
It makes me wonder if you've lost a lot of
things in the universe. It's just like, here's.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Your chance, chance, here's your chance, Anonymous.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
Ok. Sorry.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
The biggest one I had was I went up to
a cashpoint machine. There was three hundred dollars sticking out
of it.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
So that makes me nervous.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Me nervous, I got to say. But there was nobody around.
There was nobody as I was walking towards it, there
was nobody's there. What did you do? Asked a friend
who worked in the bank, and they said that because
if they hadn't taken it, it would have swallowed the money.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Up right, okay, gone back to the big man and
hopefully would have gone back into their account. Though, Anonymous,
if I got.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Slided, well, I don't know. I don't I don't know.
I didn't know, and I didn't know what to do
about it, so I took it.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
There's no judgment here, Anonymous. I think I think you
and a lot of other people would have done the same.
Speaker 6 (09:11):
So you've gone to an ATM to get out money,
and you don't take the money out of the atm.
That's what I'm saying. At some point you go, Okay,
maybe this person doesn't need money, they need brain cells.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
No, nah, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (09:23):
Someone who has gone to an ATM to take out
money forgets to take the money out of the atm.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
If I can get in my car without the car keys,
I can leave an ATM without the cash. You know,
you know, it's just if your brain's not and that
your brain's not in it. Anonymous number two, you were
in the police, Hey, how's it going? So what's the
deal is if if you.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Just said a bunch of incriminating Yeah, yeah, let's use
that allegedly.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
No first day, I need to know how much is
it tenny these days?
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Oh? This was going back to the police for a
little while now, but yeah, you can think how good
calls are you talking?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Right?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Okay, what's your experience with finding money?
Speaker 5 (10:01):
So going back a few years, this was going back out.
We stalk him as well, So no surprises there.
Speaker 7 (10:07):
We've been chasing a guy around that night, lost them,
but then we've got a call to a property later
on about a random rubbish bag being in the backyard. Yeah,
so we went there, grabbed that and it was just
over one hundred K and one hundred dollar notes in it.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
I just busted over the back.
Speaker 7 (10:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:26):
So they got rid of it at some point when they.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Were being chased.
Speaker 7 (10:28):
And the only reason when it was linked to that
guys because he had his nail in there as well.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
Put the money bag in the mail bag.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
That's raw one oh one of money stealing and laundering.
Don't put your mail with your addressing the same bag
as the money that you're laundering. Yeah. Yeah, Wow. I'd
be terrified if a hundred of a bag with one
hundred thousand dollars ended up in my backyard. I'd be like,
if I touched this, I'm going to wake up with
a horse's head in my bed.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
Yeah. You're going to come looking for something that they
left behind.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah. Just as a policeman, can I
get an opinion if Coaudia had pocketed the twenty five
dollars that she'd found on the ground at the supermarket,
what sort of area is she in there?
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Ah? Plead for the police.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Now I can easily say this. Yeah, the time and
effort going into trying to find the person that owns.
The twenty five dollars is nice, way not worth it.
But you know, if she did hand it and stuff
would be the whole holding on to it for the
three months, and then if the owner didn't come forward
going back to it.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
You guys don't want people to show up to the
police station with twenty five dollars that way.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
No, that's a waste of your time.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Okay, thank you anonymously appreciate it. Some quick texts. I
found four hundred bucks beeping in an atm as well.
I handed it to the security guard. I found us
dollars in a plastic bag at a mall. I saw
it drop from some guy's pocket. It was a solid
amount of one hundred dollar bills. I gave it back
to him and he didn't even say thank you.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
Oh, at least say Clint, I handed your wallet bag
that you've been scrammling looking for, and there was four twenties.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
How much I'll.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Give you a twenty Okay, yeah, that's fair. If there
was ten twenties, I'm.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Just checking to say, you haven't got my wallet.
Speaker 6 (12:20):
And this is some kind of focus on the question
at hand. If there was ten twenties, I'd give you
a twenty just one? Yeah, okay? How many twenties in
your wallet right now? How much cash? How much cash
is in your wallet right now?
Speaker 2 (12:32):
None of your business.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
Worth a shop.

My financial status good?
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Keep bad?
Speaker 6 (05:14):
Keep?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Yeah, fair enough the Thai bart I got it back? O.
Speaker 6 (05:19):
Wait really?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah? I handed it into my workplace and they said
all good. Because it was a terrorist place that I
was working. They said, it's unlikely anyone will come back
for this, and if they don't, you'll get it. We
have to keep it for three months.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Oh and then it came back to me perfect.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (05:36):
Was it in a briefcase?
Speaker 2 (05:37):
No, it was in a crummy envelope.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
Oh wow, that was really suspicious.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Yeah, it was in like a half torn envelope.
Speaker 6 (05:43):
My friend and I once found one hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Yes, kept it. Probably the best day ever for you.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
Yeah, we were children.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
It was awesome.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
How big can we get in the finding money stakes? Yeah?
Finding a note is fun, But I want to talk
people who found real money and what did you do
with that? What happened to that money? I assume if
it was really big. You handed it in, you may
not have, and we won't judge, and we can keep
you anonymous. But what did you do? Could we find
the person who found a decent amount of money and
(06:12):
what was the eventual outcome for that. Remember that story
that we had a little while ago about those people
in christ Shirt who found one hundred and twenty five
grand in their ceiling. Yeah, yeah, and it was drug money.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
The police were like, you got to hand that in,
and then they ended up going to them and being like, hey,
if you can't get it back to the owner, we
should get.
Speaker 6 (06:30):
Some of that money fair because it's not their.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
I made a pretty good argument for USMS Free and
Clint podcast Cordia's cash conundrum today. She found twenty five
dollars at the entrance to the supermarket, folded up at
twenty and a five, and she did the right thing
after calling her father for advice, and she handed it in.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Yeah, I'm so nice.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
You could get it back. Someone's sticked in and said
that was one hundred percent someone's tenny money that Cordia found.
Call me out of the game. But at Tenney's twenty
five dollars, Now, I don't know, have they gone up.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
Fifty fifty dollars? Yeah, I assume just from word on
the street. I'll say a lot of these things on
nine six, nine six, I'll like relieve that key. Weis
are like, yeah, I handed it back in. I handed
it back in.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
And it restores your faith in humanity.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Of that.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
There's a little bit of people who handed it and
that got it back too, So your your good persons
has been returned to you. We'll get to those, but
first Anonymous high Anonymous, Hi, are you good? Did you
find some money? Anonymous?
Speaker 7 (07:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I found lots over time.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Kay, A little bit of a magpie must.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Be a yeah. I've found lots of wallets and things,
and I always hand those in, you know, because they've
got people's personal details. Of course, I would never think
about taking money out of somebody's wallet, but I found
one of living in the UK, I found like twenty
pounds in a cigarette packet. I reckon that was some
dodgy money. I was on the cafe table and when
(08:02):
I found one hundred dollars on the dance floor in
a nightclub.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
One dance floor.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
And I found one hundred and one hundred and twenty
Australian dollars in the bottom of a washing machine at
the hotel.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
You've got good luck.
Speaker 6 (08:17):
It makes me wonder if you've lost a lot of
things in the universe. It's just like, here's.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Your chance, chance, here's your chance, Anonymous.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
Ok. Sorry.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
The biggest one I had was I went up to
a cashpoint machine. There was three hundred dollars sticking out
of it.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
So that makes me nervous.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Me nervous, I got to say. But there was nobody around.
There was nobody as I was walking towards it, there
was nobody's there. What did you do? Asked a friend
who worked in the bank, and they said that because
if they hadn't taken it, it would have swallowed the money.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Up right, okay, gone back to the big man and
hopefully would have gone back into their account. Though, Anonymous,
if I got.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Slided, well, I don't know. I don't I don't know.
I didn't know, and I didn't know what to do
about it, so I took it.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
There's no judgment here, Anonymous. I think I think you
and a lot of other people would have done the same.
Speaker 6 (09:11):
So you've gone to an ATM to get out money,
and you don't take the money out of the atm.
That's what I'm saying. At some point you go, Okay,
maybe this person doesn't need money, they need brain cells.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
No, nah, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (09:23):
Someone who has gone to an ATM to take out
money forgets to take the money out of the atm.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
If I can get in my car without the car keys,
I can leave an ATM without the cash. You know,
you know, it's just if your brain's not and that
your brain's not in it. Anonymous number two, you were
in the police, Hey, how's it going? So what's the
deal is if if you.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Just said a bunch of incriminating Yeah, yeah, let's use
that allegedly.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
No first day, I need to know how much is
it tenny these days?
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Oh? This was going back to the police for a
little while now, but yeah, you can think how good
calls are you talking?
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Right?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Okay, what's your experience with finding money?
Speaker 5 (10:01):
So going back a few years, this was going back out.
We stalk him as well, So no surprises there.
Speaker 7 (10:07):
We've been chasing a guy around that night, lost them,
but then we've got a call to a property later
on about a random rubbish bag being in the backyard. Yeah,
so we went there, grabbed that and it was just
over one hundred K and one hundred dollar notes in it.
Speaker 6 (10:23):
I just busted over the back.
Speaker 7 (10:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:26):
So they got rid of it at some point when they.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Were being chased.
Speaker 7 (10:28):
And the only reason when it was linked to that
guys because he had his nail in there as well.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
Put the money bag in the mail bag.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
That's raw one oh one of money stealing and laundering.
Don't put your mail with your addressing the same bag
as the money that you're laundering. Yeah. Yeah, Wow. I'd
be terrified if a hundred of a bag with one
hundred thousand dollars ended up in my backyard. I'd be like,
if I touched this, I'm going to wake up with
a horse's head in my bed.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
Yeah. You're going to come looking for something that they
left behind.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah. Just as a policeman, can I
get an opinion if Coaudia had pocketed the twenty five
dollars that she'd found on the ground at the supermarket,
what sort of area is she in there?
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Ah? Plead for the police.
Speaker 5 (11:15):
Now I can easily say this. Yeah, the time and
effort going into trying to find the person that owns.
The twenty five dollars is nice, way not worth it.
But you know, if she did hand it and stuff
would be the whole holding on to it for the
three months, and then if the owner didn't come forward
going back to it.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
You guys don't want people to show up to the
police station with twenty five dollars that way.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
No, that's a waste of your time.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Okay, thank you anonymously appreciate it. Some quick texts. I
found four hundred bucks beeping in an atm as well.
I handed it to the security guard. I found us
dollars in a plastic bag at a mall. I saw
it drop from some guy's pocket. It was a solid
amount of one hundred dollar bills. I gave it back
to him and he didn't even say thank you.
Speaker 6 (12:00):
Oh, at least say Clint, I handed your wallet bag
that you've been scrammling looking for, and there was four twenties.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
How much I'll.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Give you a twenty Okay, yeah, that's fair. If there
was ten twenties, I'm.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Just checking to say, you haven't got my wallet.
Speaker 6 (12:20):
And this is some kind of focus on the question
at hand. If there was ten twenties, I'd give you
a twenty just one? Yeah, okay? How many twenties in
your wallet right now? How much cash? How much cash
is in your wallet right now?
Speaker 2 (12:32):
None of your business.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
Worth a shop.
