Has biz ever donated directly to homeless people? I just gave $20 to a guy while I was driving back from getting mcdonalds. All he said was "Thank you" and walked away. Honestly I feel like i was scammed

I mean that's what I would spend it on so I don't care about that. I just wish he would've been more grateful. Thank you????? $20 deserves something more at least. Like dance or something next time dude

[Anonymous No.22511866]

One time I gave this homeless dude $10 and he just grabbed it while not saying a single word or thank you. I haven’t given money to any homeless people since. Only exeption was I gave this one poor dude (didn’t seem actually homeless just struggling hard) a couple dollars one time and he was so happy it looked like he could cry and he told me he would shout me out in a rap song when he was able to record again. It’s polarizing

That's what I'm talking about. How do I find homeless people who actually need the money and not just grifters who look at $20 as their hourly wage

Yes. I keep $50 in my wallet for this sole reason. I only give it to people who ask me directly. Anyone who says they will just buy xyz, or to buy food etc... instead is totally missing the point of giving them money. You’re not giving it to me to feed or house them, you’re giving them an opportunity to use it to improve their lives. If they choose to squander it thats on them and its none of my business.

[Anonymous No.22511961]

Absolutely not. One time when i was young and dumb i was feeling generous and gave a nigger a cigarette and all he said was "gimme anotha one". After that all homeless can OD right in front of my feet and I would briefly look down then go about my day.

To be clear i dont give them money because theyre homeless. I give them money because they ask. If anybody asked me for money i would give it to them.

Additionally, I live in a country where theres no way to be legitimately homeless unless youre really trying. To that end, its safe to assume everyone who is homeless is hopelessly mentally ill and / or abuses substances. So its more about making someones day easier, then it is about changing someones life. Like holding the door open for someone, except instead of a door its paying their dealer.

No.
Here in Philly back in the 90's the local TV station did an undercover expose on many of them and showed them panhandling for a few hours then walking a few blocks to their car then driving to their fairly decent homes. They followed them for several months, often showed them as clean cut people during their off time yet looking desheveled when they walked right out of their house in the morning. They eventually confronted many and the few that didn't run away said they did it because they lost their job and couldn't find work, yet the TV producers constantly had guys drive up offering landscape, construction etc jobs and they all refused. Basically, fuck all of them.
You don't see that type of tv anymore either, wonder why.

Instead of giving him $20 you should have gave him a cheeseburger or something. Giving him anything is potentially reinforcing bad behavior though.

Yes, but only because I was also homeless and would spend the cash given to me on booze and weed or whatever the fuck. I probably do it a few times a year, let them think they are smart or whatever until the day of the rope, then walk up to them with a smile on your face and a strap behind your back. :)

[Anonymous No.22514243]

I hate all homeless people. the ones in my town, all of them are drug addicts, limbs like twigs and barely form coherent enough sentences to ask you for money. they get ballsy, I can tell they're irritated by telling them no and they hang out in large groups near churches like stray dogs waiting for scraps because churches are the only places that consistently offer them help. oh and of course they have the courtesy of not doing hard drugs but stinking up the fucking area with weed and drinking white cider

I hate them all, i wish we still had mental asylums to stop them being nuisances to the public

[Anonymous No.22514270]

Homeless people are homeless because they are mentally ill and none of their family or friends want to deal with them anymore. Drugs and booze are just coping mechanisms. Giving them government gibs, food or cash wont fix them their only way out is death.

This is the reason why I stopped giving out money to homeless people. In the states you can get a food stamp card that gives you about $300 to spend money on food PER MONTH I’ve talked to some of these people before and honestly most of them are either druggies, mentally ill, or really just prefer the lifestyle. One guy openly told me he had a house an hour away and does this on his free time for the extra cash

I’m a burger. I was recently in Europe. In Barcelona there were so many fucking cry baby poor Gypsies. I told one of them on the subway to get the fuck out of my face before I lay him out after he kept rubbing his stomach and showing a picture that looks like it just came out of an expensive photo copy machine of his “children” Another time I was sitting outside drinking sangria like a tourist fag. Some lady came doing the shit they do
>rubbing their stomach
>I have kids at home

She kept bothering me, I told her to go sell her body. How do you euro fags deal with the Gypsies. In America, people ask, I tell them no and that’s it.

In Barcelona these Gypsy’s would not stop bothering. I literally wanted to physically assault them.

Because not everyone is like you. If anything I'd say people who give food/necessities instead of $ are the minority. When someone else gives that guy money, he doesn't have to decide between buying food or buying drugs/alcohol when you have already provided the former.

There's a Walmart near where I live. It's nowhere in particular, just off an interstate exit. The area isn't bad, really, just boring. There's been the same homeless guy (who must be in like his 30s now) sitting near the road entrance for literally a decade. Like I'm pretty fucking sure he just lives in the apartments near by and just walks over there every day to collect money. The NEET dream.

you have to be a whole new type of under a rock type introvert to look at a huge homeless population and assume its their direct fault... As if every aspect of their lives is under their control. Some of these people are disabled mentally/physically, or are smart but just neurologically atypical and can't function in general society. Seriously its quiet literally just common sense. Statistically shit just can't be the direct faulty of each homeless individual out there.

I was making a business plan and doing research and calculating a per-hour rate from my projections at a coffee shop (this is not a great, high return business) and I was watching this zoned out zombie homeless guy with a sign, and noticed he was getting donations so I started keeping count. Sure enough he was making more (actually twice) per hour than I would make after taxes and expenses. Of course, he only 'worked' the corner for a half hour before taking it across to the Korean mini-mart (which is really where all these donations go) for a pack of malt liquor which he proceeded to consume in the alley less than 20 feet away. I'm not judging, that is a kind of compassion and a sort of economy. Begging is a kind of work, and you could tell, by the look on the guys face, that he wasn't enjoying it. Its just kind of sad all around. People who give receive a real feeling of grace, which is something the bums kind of provide. So it is a legit economy of sorts.
