GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. (AP) -- A Colorado man who found $10,000 before boarding a flight in Las Vegas says he returned the money to the owner because he wanted to show his children it was "the right thing to do."

Greenwood Village resident Mitch Gilbert told KUSA-TV he found two unmarked Caesar's Palace envelopes at the airport and realized there was money inside when he arrived home. The television station reported Monday ( http://goo.gl/7aqpU ) that Gilbert called the airport and eventually got in touch with a man from El Paso, Texas, who reported the money missing.

Gilbert says he deposited the money in the man's bank account two days before Christmas. The man told the television station he won the money gambling and dropped it while running to catch a flight.

I wouldn't have returned it because it was the "right thing to do", I would have returned it because I believe karma would get me if I kept it for myself.

I would not have returned it at all. Finders keepers and all that shit. I would just tell my kids I returned it and left it at that. It was his fault for dropping it while running to catch a flight. He should have gotten there earlier and made sure he had all his shit.

I would have kept it and went to a strip club!
