Hahahahaha.
Epic fail.
How could you even fit that much money into a handbag.
Imagine if you found it though, i don't know if i would be able to keep it.

A Victorian woman has lost up to $125,000 after her handbag was stolen during a shopping trip to a local supermarket, police say.......
Police say there was between $100,000 and $125,000 in the woman’s handbag, which she had been carrying with her for quite some time.........
Detective Senior Constable Paul Hollingworth said the woman, who emigrated from Iraq nine years ago, had loaded her car with her shopping and driven away from the Mildura supermarket about 2pm, not realising she had left her handbag in the trolley........
Constable Hollingworth said the woman was saving to buy a home.....
"Different people have different ideas about how they keep their savings," he said. "She was very upset.’’.......

There are a million and one reasons why this could have happened, both culturally and psychologically. We'll all have an opinion. Here's mine; she was living amongst us but didn't trust us.
I hope whoever found the money turns it in when they read about her and helps her love our country enough to use a bank ffs.
To laugh at the misfortune of this lady is not only insensitive and callous, it also shows a distinct lack of understanding of the situation she left behind in Iraq nine years ago.
Before you judge "Epic Fail" etc. walk a mile in her shoes.
Although my heart goes out to her at how much that would suck, and I do agree with your sentiments, she has been living in Australia for almost a decade and there is more than enough education around on finance management and how the banking industry here is (relatively) trustworthy!
Common sense is pretty universal especially when living here for so long surely???
I suppose it depends on the individual's willingness/ability/encouragement to assimilate and understand their new culture and how it works...
