interesting to observe the responses. I wonder what I said to the last post like this... hmmm

Anyhow, no matter what spin you put on it, this would be illegal, unethical and wrong. Even if you never got caught, its still WRONG.

Personally, I would NEVER hesitate to grab the money, as there are simply
too many ways to convert it to real funds:

- bars,
- small convenience stores (all around your location - be creative)
- want to laugh? MONEY MARTS and WESTERN UNIONS!

Bars are the easiest. Well, places with dimmed or non-existent lighting are
the best places to make the conversion for a simple reason: all they rely on
is the texture and black light test of the bill. It passes those ? Bingo! Your
1.25$ drink (plus .75 cent tip) just made that money legal. You can easily
convert up to 350$ alone in one night - more if working with an other.

Money Marts and W.U.'s are very easy places to convert your funds so long
as you can play with the clerk's mind. Houdini said it best: re-direct attention
elsewhere while performing the operation. For best results, you could add in
one or two real bills to completely throw them off. It, errr, helps when you look
like a nice person!

Convenience stores are "convenient" because most of the time, so long as
you present the bill a certain way (to "present" their authenticity), folded in
a certain manner, you will never have any issues. Buy gum, ravioli, whatever.

There are too many possibilities to simply dismiss an opportunity like this.
If it comes along, I'm grabbin' my share! biggrin:

well it is obviously a crime, and when you commit a crime, for the most part, you are taking away someone else's privileges. i'm not into being at the bottom of society

Well, just remember no matter how nice you are to everyone, Life will end
up fucking you ten times over: enjoy yourself and take what little chances
you are given.

LOL. It's not about acting like a primate: it's taking the necessary measures
to ensure that you enjoy yourself. Ayn Rand held that man should place his
own happiness first. Self-centered, yes... but really, who's Life is it ? Yours...

To hell with everyone else; if you can have a break here and there, all the better. cool:

I'd definitely take it, and use it for drugs, and good pr0n. That way I wouldn't feel bad cheating the people I am giving the money too.

hell yea id take it, but i dont think half the price would be worth getting cought, maybe like a quater of the price. i always thought money conterfitting would be an interesting profession. and about converting it to real money just do all the shit soli said. also id give the money to people i didnt like that way theres a chance they get cought.

Ja! I need some money, im 13, i need lots of stuff! And i never get checked for money, i just give it to them and they put it away. The only place that would check i guess would be when you buy a ferrari in cash or mail in your taxes with cash in them oOo: If anyone does that, they must not pay a lot of taxes
