Cabbie strikes gold for returning lost diamonds

A Southern California cab driver’s simple act of honesty has turned to gold.
Two weeks ago, the driver, Haider Sediqi, tracked down a jeweler and returned to him the $350,000-worth of diamonds he left in the back seat of the taxi.
As a way of saying “thank you,” the jeweler sent the cabbie a $10,000 check and a diamond bracelet.


Should have kept the diamonds. Does that make me sound greedy?

I'm sure he's glad he didn't loose them in NY, that cabbie would be on some distant island by now. Our cabbie's may not know english but they know the universal language for take the diamonds and run.

I'm from the NY area. Wonder if that explains my greedy POV.
