Humanity can be good too

This morning a thread was dedicated to how someone was disgusted with humanity, I wanted to show that there are also good people out there. Stories like this have really made me look on the positive side of people

So this thread is based on commenting on this article and have you got any stories you would like to add to help peoples faith in humanity?

..Err, that's nice of him to give it all away, but c'mon, I don't think the rape victim was the only one that needed the money :/

There is nice people out there, i'm happy this guy got recognition for what he done.

 

[Hybrid Sight]

Well at least there are still some good people out there...

While this true, he could have used the money to buy himself a tv, a car, put it in the bank but no he gave it to someone who he felt sorry for

It made me feel warm and fuzzy that there are some genuinely nice people out there

Aye. I was just thinking 10k euros is a bit of an overkill, but it's still very very nice

 

[dark_taint92]

well i already knew there were good people out there. This just goes to show that there were more then i thought, good on him anyway

 

[EeveeElectro]

Yeah, there is good people out there. Just watch Pride of Britian awards. Had me crying it did :') I'm such a pussy.

Nice to see a human interest story here that doesn't result in the usual 'wow humanity is so stupid/evil' responses.

Good to see this man got recognition for what he has done.

Actually it's a bit less then 10,000 euros because the pound is worth less, plus the story is British so

The pound is worth less? The pound has NEVER been worth less than the Euro (See graph: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1+pound+in+euros). Although currently £1 = ?1.08 so it's getting close.

Everyone who says there's no good people probably has bad vision. We see more evil because it's an attention whore,but when such thing as this pops up,whole "humans are bastards" debacle falls completely flat.

Glad to see there's still people who do good deeds,and people who appreciate them. If only everyone was like that... D'awwwwwww.

I thought when £1 = <1 Euro that it meant the pound was worth less?

Yes. That is correct.

Exactly, this story warmed my heart and it probably won't get that much attention (unlike most stories involving something considered morally wrong)

I hope one of the staff make a story on this with a better layout and it will probably get more attention too

Nice guy, I wouldn't have done it, wouldn't have even crossed my mind, but we need nice guys out there too.
