拾金不昧 巨款全数归还

[复制链接]

A man in Utah discovered $45,000 (£28,000) stuffed into tins and boxes in the attic of the new home he had just boughtand gave the money back to the previous owner's six children.

Josh Ferrin was exploring the house he had just bought when he made the discovery.

Along with his wife and children, they spread out thousands of notes on a table, separating the bundles one by one. They stopped counting at $40,000.

Despite being tempted to keep the money to help him pay for mounting bills and broken down car, Mr Ferrin sought out the children of the home's previous owner, who had died, and gave them the money.

"I'm not perfect, and I wish I could say there was never any doubt in my mind. We knew we had to give it back, but it doesn't mean I didn't think about our car in need of repairs, how we would love to adopt a child and aren't able to do that right now, or fix up our outdated house that we just bought," he said. "But the money wasn't ours to keep and I don't believe you get a chance very often to do something radically honest, to do something ridiculously awesome for someone else and that is a lesson I hope to teach to my children."

犹他州盐湖城的一名男子Josh Ferrin前些天买了一幢二手房,举家搬进去之后,他开始审视旧房,在阁楼上,他发现了一堆塞满了钞票的盒子和罐子。

叫来妻子和孩子们后,Ferrin一家开始数钞票,但是钱的数量实在太多,数到4万美元的时候,他们干脆不再数下去。
