If you found a wallet on the street, what would you do?

Wallet_9052Webmaster Paul Kinsella conducted an interesting test;

He dropped 100 wallets in front of hidden cameras to see who would return them and who would steal them... He was curious as to how honest people would be and wanted to see how different races, genders and age groups would compare to each other.

Each of the 100 wallets contained $2.10 in real money, a fake $50.00 gift certificate, some miscellaneous items and a clearly written ID card identifying the lost wallet's rightful owner.

So who was more honest - women or men? Black people or white people? Young people or old people?
