finders keepers, losers weepers?

What would you do if you were to find a $50 bill in your mailbox? I would spend the next five minutes figuring out where it came from, and the next five minutes after that spending it at my neighbourhood NTUC fairprice which is just across the road from my block (i'd buy loads and LOADS of junk food! lol). But seriously...

32 year-old Ms Lau Chee Ching gave away a total sum of $3000 after hearing "voices" in her head that told her to put her money in other's letterboxes. That's quite a whopping amount, if you ask me... Of course, the story was amusing enough at first but then later, when a couple of good samaritans tried getting the money back for poor Ms Lau (who obviously wasn't of sound mind),
they were shocked to find some residents not only unwilling to return the money, but so eager to fish out more $50 notes, they tried to pry open other mailboxes.
Tsk tsk tsk... Shame on these Singaporeans!
