Terrorized by "Cameras everywhere," desperately poor man gives bag of cash to $2.5 billion corporations. Joe Conell, 52, was working in a lot of a Salvation Army location as part of a substance abuse rehabilitation program when he saw a bag of cash fall out of the back of a Brinks armored cash transport car as it drove over railroad tracks in downtown Fresno. It contained $125,000. Washed up and broke, the cash would have changed Joe's life. But he thought: "they're going to backtrack. There are cameras everywhere now. You'd be doing federal time." So he sent it to Brinks. Joe's net worth rose by a $5,000 reward. Brink's net worth dropped to a mere $2.499995000 billion. (Man: Heartwarming.) (Woman: Doing the right thing. Love it!)
