Give Me a Dollar...
Simple question: How do you feel about panhandlers?
When you run into a person asking for some spare change, no matter their reasoning, what's your usual answer?
Being as I spange (It's a mix of the words "spare" and "change. It seems this isn't a very common term.) quite often myself, I give any spare change I have, if any, away whenever approached. Same with cigarettes, a shot of my booze, anything. I don't necessarily believe in karma or anything. I just believe in helping people out because I know what it's like.
Also, when I spange, I usually do so by playing music on the corner. I make much more money this way, and, I'd say, rightfully so. On the other end, I'm much more willing to hand out more money if I'm being given a show in return.
Thoughts?
