Begging on the weekend for extra money 💰

I make minimum $400 begging on the street in my city on the weekend pretending to be unhoused to tourists.

Is your dignity really only worth $400?

You sound like a narcissist with zero conscience or actual sense of humanity.

There's a notorious a-hole in my area who has become well known for setting up in a wheelchair to go begging. This jackass has bragged about pulling down $100k/yr but now too many people recognize him so at least it's not as easy for him now.

Yeah, other than you low skilled in the world of panhandling compared to some of your peers, you are acting like a douche and there are people who are truly in need.

May Karma serve you up a very cold dish.

I hope you redistribute that money to people who need it more than you.

Have you ever run in to someone you know?

Yes, a few times, I tell them I'm working at my side job. I think they think I'm joking.

That’s the lowest form of sick depravity i ever read on Reddit. This ain’t an ULPT dude, be ashamed of yourself, you are literally robbing well meaning people who think they are actually helping a less privileged. Awful

Begging is the lowest form of depravity.

Begging has been rebranded online too. TikTok, Twitch etc. it’s all people just virtually begging for money.

Sure if you’re selling timeshares or MLM pyramid schemes

This is common amongst lazy young people in Europe who do not want to work, specifically in Italy near the major tourist spots.

There are jobs but they don’t want to “those” jobs. It’s easier to be a parasite.

We have the same problems in Greece. A lot of young educated Greeks would prefer to be unemployed than take “those” jobs that they feel are beneath them.

The pan handlers in my city are all addicts and do not qualify for the homeless shelters because they are using or refuse to stop using.

Fix the problem: stop giving money to these dregs. I offer food sometimes and get yelled at.
