An elderly couple was celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. Childhood sweethearts, they had returned to their old neighborhood after retiring.
Hand in hand, they visited their old school. The door was unlocked, so they stepped inside and found the desk they’d once shared. On it, Jerry had carved, *I love you, Sally*. They smiled at the memory.
On their way home, an armored car passed by, and a bag of money tumbled out, landing right at their feet. Sally quickly grabbed it. Unsure what to do, they brought it home.
When they opened it, they were stunned—it held $50,000!
“We need to return this,” Jerry said firmly.
“Finders keepers!” Sally replied, stashing the bag in the attic.
The next day, two police officers knocked on their door. “Excuse us, did you find a bag of money that fell out of an armored car yesterday?” one asked.
Sally replied calmly, “No.”
But Jerry blurted, “She’s lying! She hid it in the attic!”
Sally shot back, “Don’t listen to him—he’s losing his mind!”
The officers turned to Jerry. “Sir, can you explain what happened from the beginning?”
Jerry nodded and said, “Well, when Sally and I were walking home from school yesterday…”
The officers exchanged a glance, and one muttered to the other, “We’re done here.” Then they left.
