"... the tin cup is such a low-tech way to beg. Theres a better way. Meet Jovan Hill, digital beggar. Hill is an unemployed Brooklyn man who spends his days asking strangers for donations on social media and is now bathing in other peoples money ...

At night, he’s Q, selling tshirts.
I will be funny when he gets audited by the IRS.
That might make him put the crack pipe down for a little bit.
Any future girlfriends are put on notice that he will expect his date to pay for his meal too.
The kids got moxie!
Once approached by a “hungry” guy panhandling at a gas station. Bought him a pre packaged sandwich when I went inside. As I was driving away he was headed inside, I assume to return the sandwich for cash. Some people are truly down on their luck, but many are professional beggars.
The dumbass “millennials” don’t have any money to pay their medical bills and college tuition but sure seem able to come up with money to be on vacation all the time traveling across the country and around the world. They never seem to have problems getting money for the newest” next big thing”. They can buy “books” put out by commie libs and go to their movies. They never seem to lack money to send to every moron who comes down the pike’s #GoFundMe account. They always seem to be able to afford the latest smart phone or a new car or two. What the hell is going on?
Got a crush on Lenina Crowne She is so pneumatic.
This guy is a piker, there are far worse thieves who have been doing worse for over 50 years
Happens every day, and they steal from some of the poorest and most vulnerable in the USA, the elderly.
The con artists?
Televangelists, radio and TV preachers.
They make this guy look like a saint.
There is a lady who begs every day near the entrance to the grocery store we use. On a local website, someone wrote “Don’t give her money! She lives with her son down the street, he takes care of her. She takes the money straight into the grocery store and buys lotto tickets!”
Heh.
i once tried helping someone who was down and out, knowing they didn’t have enough food many times- only to find out they were spending what i gave them on lottery tickets- when i confronted them about it they got angry and declared that i ‘had no right trying to dictate where the money i gave them went to’
Meh- if they didn’t want any more outside ‘help’, all they had to do was say so
The breeders of such millenials (both the beggar and giver)are the real bums. I choose not to use the word parents because they don’t deserve it.
> There is a woman standing on the corner at our Walmart store begging for help. She has been there for months. <
Years ago I was walking through a college town when a young, well-dressed man (suit and tie) approached me. He said that he was visiting the campus, and his car had broken down. Could I spare $5 to help him out?
“Sorry, no”, I said as I kept on walking.
Anywho, about a month later I was back in that town, and there was that same guy asking folks for money. He sure must have bad luck with cars.

You’ve got that right. The great majority of them are simple grifters. They’ll take a quote out of scripture, then twist it as a reason why you must send them money.
I heard one on TV (Mike Murdock) say, “If you don’t have the money in your checking account, we take credit cards.” Yeah, go into debt for Mike’s sake. It’s repulsive in the extreme.
I was thinking the same thing! Well said!
Good post there.

Maybe that just meant she sucked.
The money is given to him as gifts. He doesn’t owe taxes on any of it.
If a person gives him more than $12,000, the sender must pay a gift tax to the IRS. That’s the only tax angle to this story.
