9. You find a wallet containing $300. By the address, you can tell that the owner is wealthy. Do you keep the money?
I wouldn't keep the money. Any time I've found money or another person's personal belongings as a child, my parents made me return it. I developed a pattern of always returning things I found that didn't belong to me. I would rather make the person happy and show them people do good deeds rather than have 300 dollars. One good deed can have a chain reaction or ripple effect and make people I'm unaware of do nice things, as a result of my good action. Also, if the person is wealthy and sees my act of kindness there is a chance they would let me keep the money anyways. I would feel guilty if I pocketed the money, I wouldn't want that on my conscience.
