Philosophical question

What is the graver crime: stealing 10 dollars from a blind beggar's cup, or stealing 10,000 dollars from a billionaire?

No matter how much money you may personally have, you certainly won't want to bet it on* Tasmanian road safety now that I am off my P plates as of today.

Congratulations Anna...

And Phil for getting off those dastardly plates.

They are both heinous crimes. Do neither of them. Mind you, if you can successfully prove that the billionaire has received his fortune illegally, it'd make most people feel good to see justice done. Maybe you could get him to give a few bucks to the poor man.

I'm getting all warm and fuzzy.

I concur with j-rom.
Many people have no problem with a 'Robin Hood' character, even if they don't give anything to the poor. (Although a few charitable donations would completely justify this thefting in some minds).
