I only give a street bum money if he is very old or is missing a limb. The young and or healthy ones are not getting a dime from me.
There was a guy who stood on a corner that I passed by a lot. I gave him a dollar once. Soon after he showed up with facial tattoos. I was sorry I gave him a dollar to spend at the tattoo parlor.
A short time later I see him and he has had his foot and half way up his shin removed and he has crutches, then soon, a wheelchair.
He really looked sick and then I never saw him again.
He’s dead Jim!
Wow.
Sad...
