    You find $850K.

    You tell the news about it.

    Cops take it away.

    You are left with squat and 30 seconds on TV.

    How do you spell "stoopid"?

    you would basically have to launder the money or spend it all in cash and you cant buy a 500,000 house cause the real estate agent has to report anything paid in cash over a certain amount. I'd just use it to buy a ton of rims and gold chains and stuff. Then keep the rest to use as petty cash the rest of my life. I'd move into an apartment and pay rent with it everymonth. I'd also goto columbia and buy a bunch of cocaine so I can start my career i've always dreamed about as a drug kingpin.

    right he might not be as stupid as everyone thinks. But i still wouldn't have said anything, because if you report some and it is drug money then whomever it was for knows who has it.

    reporting it will do one of 2 things or both, draw attention from whoever lost it, and have them come after u, or have the police come and either take it all or tax the **** out of it...commen sense, some people just dont have it....

    i dont think that if you found it you could invest 500k and buy a house and a car bc the irs would start asking questions. i mean if you all of a sudden took 850k to the bank they would start asking questions. i know its not smart but you would propably have to launder the money or you would have to just not invest it and spend tiny amounts at a time. for example, maybe put 10k on a downpayment for you a new house then make the payments with the money while keeping the price in your income range.

    i wish i watched the rest of it to find out where the money came from, but my ADD kicked in and i changed the channel, from what i saw, the guy seemed like he was going to turn it in, he looked like the kind of guy that would feel guilty for finding it

    I would have diveed it up among different bank accounts and put as much as i could into a safety deposit box where the IRS hasnt a clue. I would use a legitimate portion of it every week to deposit into the bank, but not huge amounts that the IRS could actually look into or nail you on. Enough to sound believable, if my salary paid me 800 bucks a week, I'd deposit 4 or 500 every week into a savings account. "I was cutting back and saving" I would say. I would buy one nice ride that cost me around 25 or 30 grand, put 10 g's down on it, and make payments every month like most people. But I'd have another ride or two that I could get my hands on wholesale for under 10 g's that the IRS would not have to know about, but make a ton of mods to the car(s). I would start a side business of some sort and as stupid as it sounds start the small business by maxing out a ****load of credit cards. Regardless or not if the business took off or wwas profitable I would still report a 1099 income quartlery to keep any questioning from happening. Invest some here and there into retirement with proceeds from my half assed or "fake business" and there ya go, thats 850 g's cash well spent and jail free.

    you would have to launder it !

    chances are that money is in sequencial (sp) order

    and the govt would be able to track you down if you start making fequent/ large purchases.

    you best bet is to take 10k at a time to the casino buy 1000 bucks in chips at a time play a little cash in and keep doing that till you have exchanged the 10 grand. unless you know a launder.
    not that ive ever thought about it before .

    I just think the dude is an idiot...

    If I'd find that much money it would go straight under my mattress, not a word to anyone and trust me... I can find a zillion ways to slowly spend 800k discretely
