I just came out of a shop with a roast beef sandwich, large fries, ear of corn & a jumbo hot dog. A poor homeless man setting there said 'I haven't eaten in 2 days'.
I replied, 'I wish I had your will power.'

Coming out of a Popeye's not so long ago, I gave a homeless guy a 10 spot thinking he would go in and get something to eat. Instead, he got up, walked across the street to a gas station where I imagine he bought beer or wine and a twinkie.
And yeah, I was pissed. Originally Posted by HedonistForever

Well of course he did. If the homeless guy was good with money, he wouldn't be homeless. Originally Posted by GastonGlock

If you are passionate about helping the needy, find a shelter or a charity, validate that they're good and not just a plot to make someone else rich, and donate to them. Then direct people in need that you meet to that shelter or charity.
The next time I felt compelled to help, I stood right next to the guy at the counter ( who looked like he hadn't eaten in a month ) told him to order and I paid for it. That time, I wasn't pissed.
Another time when I made the offer to take a guy inside to order, he says"I'd rather have the money" so I turned and walked away. Originally Posted by HedonistForever
