I found this very interesting:
Special thanks to sandy for being apart of this experiment, it couldn't have been made without him. Sandy is one of the most interesting people i have met and its unfortunate to see him in the condition he is in. On the previous video we did together, i created a donation page for him it got over $140 ; i gaved him the money and he loved it! I hope Sandy & i provided another perspective for you.

Stupid video. Really. The bums on the street usually take any money and buy alcohol or drugs. Someone who looks "responsible" is a safe bet of the money being used properly. I don't fault people for carefully deciding how to invest THEIR money.

Crazy ....is this why the elite are so rich...........
Moral of the story is if you are homeless ,the first thing you should do is go buy a suit................

If your a theif......wrap yourself laws that protect your thievery.
If your a robber....make sure your have the best and most guns.
If your a parasite...make sure you blame the host for its demise.

True story.
I had the homeless man experiment just happen .
Sure enough i blew right past him and kept moving.
Now i will say i was with the wife and baby and i am very cautious about charity cases when my family is in proximinity.
After the family was in the car....i thought about it and went back with 3 dollars.
He said have a nice day and stuffed it in his pocket.
By time i got in my car he was gone.
The funny thing for me is..there is a liquor store and dollar store within a stones throw of each other.
Which way he went i dont know.
What he does i dont care.
He has to deal with the consequences of what he choses.
I can honestly say the above vid had a direct effect on my behavior.

I will not give money to homeless or street beggars.... unless, after a deep-dive conversation I see truth in the person and value in their investment. If you give to their addiction, you do them and you harm.

I wont lie .....he did look pretty banged up from hard living and i could tell he wasnt as old as he appeared.
I normally defer to not assiting with addiction.
Its times like that i let my consiouness be my guide.
I believe it was more about me and what i was going to do.....then about him and his situation.
I feel okay about it today.
Tommarrow i may get a entirely different feeling and action if it were to happen again.

I ran into a guy on the street Monday. He wanted money. I tried to talk with him. He was barely there mentally... a real sorry creature. He needed much more than money and I did not see the capacity for him to receive what he needed. Now that is as sorry a state as there can be... unable to receive what is needed.
