I returned a wallet once. Guy was really grateful. Had mine returned to me about ten years later. Karma.

At that age I would have returned everything thing but the $. Good for him. Got his priorities right.

Looks like he's delivering menus. Just find the place he works for.
JustAnotherPOG
Security camera shows the kid's face, and it looks like he was walking, so he probably lives in the same neighborhood. Not too hard.
WillJeSuis
...what? He's walking because he found the house...did you expect him to run away?

good kid , great morals :) nice reward :D

True.

If you have $1500 just sitting in your wallet you can afford to give the kid more than $150

As it's not your money to start with, the right thing to do is to not accept a reward.

I was proud of myself when I found a women's wallet with 450$ in it and fracked her down. Was tempted I won't lie, she didn't even thank me

Context: He found the wallet on the street in front of the house, the guy's wife was home but didn't want to open the door to a stranger, ->
sppwalker
he did this and left it under the doormat, she got it after he left, later he came back to make sure she'd gotten it and then they hugged.->
sppwalker
Post is misleading, he found it outside the house, didn't need to get the address, they didn't track him down and it doesn't mention them ->

Am I the only one who thinks he's hella cute? (I'm not creepy we're about the same age)

Cute is cute man, if there's a cute guy with a good personality I'm happy regardless of race
DoggoPicsMakeMeHungry
Oops. I can see how that came across as racial. I didn't intend it that way. I was trying to say he has very generic attractiveness.
sppwalker
My bad. Generic attractive is still attractive, I love 3/5 of In Real Life (band my crush of 5 years is in), so my taste isn't too plain

Meh - I'd say it gives them better chances... I know too many good parents with bad seeds
skellington01
Better chances is all you have to hope for, and all you can expect.
Talvieno
Depends on whether their parents let them hang out with bad people, I'd say. That's the missing factor. It's part parents, part community.
temporarilyhuman
"Let" is a word non-parents use. Parents use other words, like "dear Jesus not my kid," "for the 20th time," and "what aisle is the maalox"
ashbee
Not always. I'm a better person than my parents raised me to be but it's be through a conscious effort.

Why make assumptions for no reason about someone you know nothing about. Also what you said is different then the original comment.

I think you're right. You don't need to be raised in a certain way to become a good person. I don't like assuming that he was raised however

Yeahhhhh... Should be "lucky-day kid". Shitty grammar sense bothers me.
KeeleonOhms
Is that like a brish thing? I have literally never heard that term in my life.
InsecurityGuard
Or Lucky Day: Kid Finds... for a title
DrewBerg
Actually that's not right either. It should be "Lucky day, kid kinds wallet..." or "Lucky day. Kid" or "Lucky day: kid". No need for hyphen.
ShadyC
Except that those are two totally different things. "Lucky day, kid finds wallet," is just two different... well, clauses. It's labeling--
ShadyC
--the day. Aka, "what a lucky day! Kid finds wallet..." However, saying "lucky-day kid" is labeling the kid. He is a lucky-day kid.
ShadyC
As in, this kid is of lucky days. Thus, the hyphen is needed.

Wait. Did he just fucking leave it on the doorstep?

It's a dark wallet on a dark doormat. You'd have to be going up to the door to even notice the wallet most likely. Or see him place it there

Mom was at home with kids and he heard the kids when we knocked. No answer. She checked the cam feed after he left. (1/2).

2/2 FYI, if someone is looking to break in and you don't answer, then it can escalate quickly once they come in from the back door.
ChucklePuss
How did you get from this to a B&E, haha?! Thanks for the tip though.
fartinacolander
It’s on a bit of string, attached to his pocket
fnordy
He may have left it under the mat, and showing it to the camera tells them to look for it. People on the street wouldn't know that.
LokiKingOfJotunheim
It looks like he left it on the mat which is dark. He showed it to the camera so they saw he left the money with it when he put it down.
LasciviousHedgehog
Why didn't he just post it though the letter box?
ErinFromTheOffice
What he *should* have done is left a note with his number and arranged a time to drop it off in person.

ErinFromTheOffice
I was thinking more like, 6pm when the guy was home from work. Not sure why I'm getting downvoted for this.

He could have put it in the mailbox, but I think he wanted the owner to see it right away when they got home.
