Well, while you think about what you would do, here is what an elderly man from the US did after discovering the said amount of cash in a man cave couch he bought in December, last year.

Reports say Howard Kirby complained that one of the cushions in the couch was uncomfortable and his daughter decided to open it up.

According to CBS46.com, Kirby’s stunned daughter started pulling out money and they ended up with a total of $43 170, an equivalent of a little over GSH 243k.

Although he was not under any legal obligation to return it, his conscience as a Christian would not let him be, so he decided to return the tempting cash intact.

According to reports, Kirby tracked down the person who donated the couch to the shop where he bought it only to realise that the donor was Kim Fauth-Newberry.

The couch belonged to Fauth-Newberry's grandfather - who passed away the year before, reports say.
