Wow..an entire page devoted to people commenting without even watching the video.. do yourselves a favor and actually watch the video before judging off a title.

fake. There is a cut in the film during the initial conversation. Dude probably told him to go take the 100 and do some nice shite on camera.

This is nice but ironic for me. Just yesterday while sitting in traffic on College Drive I commented that I was getting a fifth of Taaka vodka for the wacky t-shirt hobo tomorrow. Person in the car said that was horrible to buy him booze and I theorized I was just saving him the trip across the street to Albertsons.

That is why the homeless should never be given money.

Give them food and water- if they don't want that, then they aren't that bad off

Went to a fast food restaurant once that had two rough looking guys pan handling for change so they could go inside and eat. Walked back out a few minutes later with a sack of food for them.

They looked annoyed, hid the food in their bag, and kept hasting people for change.

I was always told that that is the better approach so you at least know they won't be using your money to buy booze. That situation actually made me feel worse.

My story

About ten years back, I was in Birmingham, Alabama for a doctor's appointment. Afterwards, we went to an Arby's and got a roast beef sandwich. As we took the food to the table I noticed a bum at a table counting his money. He had pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters, obviously not enough to buy anything at Arby's.

I made a quick decision, walked over and placed a ten dollar bill on the table in front of him. I walked away from him without saying anything.

He looked at the $10.00 bill or a minute and then in one swoop, wiped up his money. Into his pocket it went and he got up and walked out of Arby's and through a light rain into the liquor store next door.

I laughed and told my wife, "I just bought Jesus a bottle of cheap wine!"



It was well worth it. Over the years I have received $10,000.00 worth of pleasure remembering that rainy afternoon.
