Young man & $50.

Value Honesty: Walking into the grocery story behind William, a young man of 10, I was startled when he stopped suddenly. There at his feet lay several bills folded in half and crumpled. He proceeded to pick up the bills and took them to the clerk at the checkout counter. “Someone lost this money,” he said. The lady took the bills and his father's phone number, and told Williams that if the money was not claimed in 30 days, the money was his. William felt good about his experience in the grocery store and it was a platform for further discussions where honesty is a virtue that needs to be taught.
