Honesty and integrity are of the utmost importance in business, life in general and family. There is only one choice. 

Given the wide range of ethics-based discussions in the past and the even wider range of actions people said they would take, I thought it could be interesting to gauge their opinions on this. 

Coming to the aid of a stranger when their life is threatened is a good example.  Some people exhibit "situational ethics" where they do what most say is right in some circumstances, but then do the opposite in others.

Here, we have a chance to simply lay low and see if we get a $3000 windfall.  I'm sure the Property Manager or Bank would have to make good on those deposits if they can't figure out where they went, so the property owners should not be out anything. 

Food for thought.

Good, honest Property Managers are too hard to find. For me, not worth the money to go look for another. Besides, I have to live with myself. No amount of money is worth my not having peace of mind.

Of course, this is just me. I won't judge anyone else if they choose another path. Unless it is EEF. Then all bets are off. 

If you tried to keep the money, you wouldn't get very far.

You been taking math lessons from EEF?   

Why do I need collateral if I'm loaning out $100K?   

Because when someone comes back for the money you owe, you have to be able to pay them, you cannot just keep it.

That makes no sense.  If I LOAN money, I'm not borrowing, so I owe nothing.

Try to read for comprehension, please.

I think if EEF would be PM then it would be a sanctuary rental subsidized by Section 8.

Slum lord.

Seriously, do you not possess the capability to be polite? I commented politely and you have been nothing but abrasive. Yet you claim I am the one who gets rude and says mean things?

Your posts have been reported. I will not be bullied by you.

simple solution is to not post or pay attention to this forum.
no one forced you to post or read.
you have the freedom to do so.
So I see no cause for being bullied.
"Sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me."
That's what I remembered from grade school.
Just walk away.

In all fairness the sticks and stones line is one of the dumbest there is. I don't mean that as an insult to you but a myth that the phrase perpetuates. However that is another topic.

Sure, I could avoid the forum and flap's comments but I have been here for quite some time and enjoy the information and discussions. If flapp is going to derail a thread to make personal attacks and no one has a problem with it then I have the same freedoms to call BS on his comments. This has happened repeatedly and if memory serves me right, you have been one who has been annoyed at the results. If you don't care one bit then so be it.

I can ignore people on this forum.
Annoyed yes but I don't feel bullied.
I can walk away from this forum forever and the sun will rise and set tomorrow.
A person can shout and say things to you. It's up to you what your reaction will be. All your feelings belong to you. You generate them as a response to those statements. BLUF: You are responsible for how you feel and react. All your perceptions. They are owned and maintained by YOU. No one else.
