i lost my money :(
I had about 200 dollars in cash (all 20's) in my wallet. I was going to go to the bank to put it all in my savings account but i was extremely busy and waited a few days to do it. I know I should have taken that money out of my wallet and put it somewhere safe. One time I actually did. I was going out with friends and I remember taking it out of my wallet and put it in my drawer next to my bed. Then I think I remember putting it back in my wallet because I was sure I was going to the bank the next day. But I guess I didn't because I think the money was in the wallet for a few more days.. so today i decide to count my money and see how much I had. Well there was only 23 dollars in there... i got really worried and searched EVERYWHERE!!! I looked in all the pockets in my wallet, my school backpack, my purse, all of my pants pockets, my drawers in my desk, even in between the cushions in the couch. I literally looked everywhere in my room and all the other rooms it could be in. I have no idea where it went... :'(
This makes me really sad because this is MY money. My money that I actually worked for... And at my age, I never really get to say its my money. most of the time its my parents money that they give me. but this is money that I earned hard, and now i'm so upset its gone :( I know I should have taken better care of it.. I dont need the lecture. I understand money (especially cash) is a big responsibility and I am old and mature enough to deal with it. I just wasn't thinking. So please don't give me that speech about being more responsible. I get it. I learned my lesson. I just really need some advice on what to do.
I can't ask my dad because he will be furious if he finds out I lost that money. I was thinking I could sell some of my things on ebay or craigslist so i can kind of get it all back? I have some useless things like a lava lamp, a lot of video games and movies I dont use anymore. Do you think thats a good idea? I was also thinking maybe I could bake some cookies and go door to door selling them for like a dollar each? Kind of like a lemonade stand but for cookies.
Oh and I kind of have a feeling that some kids in my 4th hour class took it because my 4th hour class isn't exactly the "good crowd". A lot of kids in that class smoke weed, drink, party, they cheat on tests, steal things all the time. So maybe they could have gone in my bag and stole it? But then why would they leave 23 dollars???
Or maybe it fell out of my wallet when I went to the store a few days ago? I was kind of in a rush, but I honestly don't remember anything falling out of my wallet. If it did, i probably would have noticed it because i was looking right at my wallet when i pull out or put away cash. Do you think maybe I should go back to the stores I was at and see if they found it?? But how would they know its mine and that i'm not just trying to steal someone elses?
I'm just in a really bad mood :( I have such bad luck all the time.. Its not fair that I work so hard for this and then it all goes away :( I'm a good girl and a good person. Honestly. I believe in karma but I didn't do anything wrong to deserve this.. I have such bad luck :( ugh. Can anyone help me?? Thank you.

Maybe give some free advice about: Random Weirdos?
First off,. Did you maybe spend more than you thought you did? If not then maybe you might have misplaced it. OR infact in might have been stolen,. you can't be 100% sure.
Also. Just because this group of people is known as the bad crowd and has been known to steal does not automatically make them a top suspect. Sure they could have done it. But you can't blame or accuse them without hard physical proof.
I do agree baking cookies or selling a few unwanted items is a good idea Although I would NOT USE CRAIGSLIST! It might be an okay website,. But it does not seem very trust worth. and i have heard alot of bad stuff about it.
I would suggest you use Kijiji. But depending on how old you are,. i would Recommend being with some friends or someone you trust when meeting up for the initial exchange of items and money
Hope this helps:)

Losing your money is never pleasant. But yes, you could try selling a few of things you don't use or want anymore in hopes of making back what you have lost. But before trying craigslist, try local pawn shops or local game / movie shops like E-Bash, Game Stop, or other places like that and see if they buy games and movies (most do) because they could possibly give you more than you could make on craigslist. Pretty much investigate before selling so you know you're getting a better deal here or there.
As to that Karma thing, you never know, You may have done something that you didn't think was a big deal but to you it wasn't..To the one it happened to, it might have been a disaster in which something they considered was precious was "destroyed" in there eyes. Even if it does not appear to be a significant matter from one perspective, from another perspective , it is a huge incident, and most of the time it is the recipient who feels the larger shock. Only the concerned party can say whether it's no large matter. Grudges are things that can be born very easily.
