An age old question, would you do it?

Walking along an empty street, you notice a wallet. It contains $5,000 in cash but no name or address. What would you do? Would it alter your decision if inside you found the name, address, and picture of either a wealthy-looking young man or a frail-looking old woman?
Most people say if they found a wallet full of cash on the street they would return the money; do you believe them? Most also think their own lost wallets would not be returned; do you feel similarly? How do you explain this contradiction? Would you help fund an experiment designed to find out whether people are actually honest enough to return cash-filled wallets?

Actually they have done this on some of the shows. Yeah I am one who would return it, I know how important money can be to pay bill's etc. and I wouldnt be able to get that out of my head. But on the show that I seen, some people did return it and some didnt the one's that didnt were confronted and asked why, the said that they didnt because of no id, or something else. Guess it just all depends.
