Hero busboy returns $1 500 to Wendy's customer who forgot her purse
Matt Cureton
Peggy Humanick is probably thanking her lucky stars that  19-year-old Matt Cureton  was working at the Wendyâs in Fort Pierce  Fla.  on Monday.
Lucky for Peggy   Cureton  found her purse hanging off the back of a chair while  he  was bussing their table  and turned over the lost item to  his  manager  Betsy Hersha  to hold.
âI just did what I would hope everyone would do in that situation â  Cureton  told the Sun Sentinel. âIf I lost my wallet I would hope someone would return it rather than taking from it. I try to live by that standard â the golden rule.â
The Humanicks then hopped in their car and headed straight back to Fort Pierce  where  Cureton  and Hersha were waiting.
 Cureton  was rewarded $100 by the Humanicks for  his  honesty  which Hersha says she had to convince  him  to take.
âI hugged  him   I told  him  Iâm very proud of  him   use the money on  himself  â Hersha said.
âIt was very considerate of them  they were a very nice couple â  he  said. âThey didnât have to give me anything.â
 Cureton  said  he  is working at the fast food chain to save money for college.  He  told the Sun Sentinel all of the reward money will go into  his  college savings.
