If they were meant for me I'd buy undervalued altcoins. Some have become way too cheap and it's value is not being recognized.

This is a difficult one because so many people can accidentally send coins to others which were not meant for them in which case you using them could cause a problem. If I was not sure they were meant for me I would hold them safely until I could either trace the person that sent them or someone came to me saying they had accidentally sent them. If I knew they were for me I would more than likely invest in some kind of bitcoin business.

Your just sitting there and you get a notification that you have received 20 bitcoins out of nowhere. What would you do?
Its more likely a scam, but if its not I will just keep it in my wallet until price went up to about 1000$... |

I mine since jan 2014 ... and i haven't received any 25BTC that the network can generate.  always a dream to "receive" 20BTC from nowhere. Mathematic network don't do this things per magic event.   |

I would send it back to the sending address, simple as that, no holding onto it to "find" the guy who owns them. If I don't own them then I cannot keep them.

What a honest man would do: Send it back to the address even if you can't contact the person who sent it and get confirmation it was a mistake.
What a smart man would do: Invest it into a Bitcoin related business.

I would sell half for AUD.. put the remaining 80% in cold storage and other 20% in my every day wallet in case I wanted to buy myself a little present with BTC.

Well, very easy question I will buy a great vacation trip for me and my wife, maybe visit China, Tibet, Kenya (safari) etc. Part of money I will keep because I expect that bitcoin will raise in value in coming years but surely that part of it I will spend for great vacation! |

I'm quite shocked by the amount of people who wouldn't return it and would just use it for themselves.

I guess I'd be really really happy and put them in a safe paper wallet first. Getting hold of so much money makes you kind of prone to do stupid decisions like gamble them away, buy stuff you really don't need or be careless. I think I'd sleep it over a couple of days first, at least!!! |

If I could not find the sender I would invest in shares of klyemax studios. All kidding aside I would try to find the sender and if I could not find them I would invest it. |

Hahah, did you invest in him? That story was incredible, wasn't it? I mean it was money he raised from freaking investors, for crying out loud!!! It's one thing to gamble away your own money, but the money from people who trusted you with their money.... Never! |

I would try and return the funds to the sender.
In fact this did happen to me once. An upstart business called BitSpend (remember them?) erroneously refunded me twice to the sum of 12 BTC. I sent it back to them, but in retrospect maybe I should have just kept it because they were out of business no more than a few weeks later.

Hindsight is a bitch, but good for you for sending it back. Most people are very scruple when it comes to money. |
