Seriously, is he right or wrong about how he feels?? Should he have gotten more, is the amount appropriate or should he be grateful and look up of the eternal divine reward for his gesture???? Whatever our answers maybe, Raymond isn't finding the $100 reward funny!
Raymond MacCausland, a 72-year-old Boston taxi driver found $187,000 in cash after dropping a man on Saturday afternoon July 2nd and promptly, in good Samaritan fashion, returned the bulky sum to the police. He now says he feels disappointed by the $100 reward given to him..
MacCausland, who has been working as a taxi driver for 50 years, said the man he carried in his taxi inherited the cash after living in a homeless shelter for six months. The money was returned to the unnamed man after police determined he was the rightful owner.
'I thought maybe he would give $500 or $1,000, maybe one of those bundles,' the taxi driver told the New York Daily News .
'I’ve never seen money like that before. It was quite a sight when they dumped it on the table.'
He was relieved when police discovered the inheritance paperwork, adding: 'I know if it wasn't they'd come looking for me.'
'This hackney driver exhibited exemplary behavior and his honest deed should be recognized,' Police Commissioner William Evans said in a statement.
This is not the first time MacCausland has been inadequately rewarded for his honesty. He once returned a briefcase filled with $10,000 to its owner who gave him no reward.....He maybe related to a Nigerian Teacher, whose rewards are in Haven...
