<p>[QUOTE="Gilbert, post: 3381278, member: 73104"]The flip side to the “found on ground” theme is the other side of the stories: that of the losing person. I probably have the record for loosing money. I sold an old farm tractor and the buyer paid with hundred dollar bills. For several months I carried one in the middle of my folded pocket cash, using it when the opportunity presented itself (not all businesses accept them). Once one was cashed, another would take its place. One day, prior to entering a restaurant, I removed the cash to check if there was enough to pay the check. There was and the $100 bill was there. After eating I again removed the cash from my pocket to pay the tab and the hundred dollar bill was gone. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie15" alt=":arghh:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> After searching up and down the street for a short time it became abundantly clear that it was gone forever. I consoled myself thinking that my loss certainly made someone’s day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
