If you found money lying on the ground would you pick it up and take it even if you didn't need it or leave it for someone else to find?

What would you do with money you don't need?

    You lost me at "if I didn't need it." Irrational premise.

    Well.. all the money I don't need I just spend on stuff I don't need. Might as well leave it on the ground.

    Don't like litter. Public spirited thing is to pick it up.

    I was walking with my son and noticed a ten dollar bill lying on the sidewalk. I told him to see what that object was and he picked it up.

    If it was just paper money without a wallet/purse, and no one was around, I would pick it up.  It's part of the cosmic cycle of lost & found.  I've lost money in that way myself.  So, I just look at it as the universe returning what's owed to me.

    I would pick it up.  My next steps would be determined by where I found the money and the amount.
