What do you do when (1 Viewer)

[Myco]

you walk towards/past a beggar?
Do you give them some money or just ignore them, make awkward eye contact with them?

if i have the money, i give as much as i can. i'm not very well off, however, so i don't end up giving as much as i would like. if i have nothing, it's awkward eye-contact

It depends, sometimes I give them some coins

Usually just ignore them as you don't know who they are to know where that money is actually going and for all you know you could be funding their drug addiction

Same with me

ngl usually nothing... part of it is because i walk so fast i don't notice anyone around me and the other part is that i don't carry around any more money with myself than what i'm planning to spend

i rarely carry around spare money, most of the time i only have my card on me, and when i dont it's because i really need all the cash i brought with me. so i just walk past and pretend to be focused on something else. i do give them money when i can though; unless they're obviously an alcoholic or drug addict its really not my business what they do with it, i don't like to judge or assume

I rarely ever give any tbh. A lot of people in my town are known for tricking people into giving them money and it’s now just made me more cautious. I’ll give money only sometimes or go buy a meal or hot packs, water, etc for them instead.

I don't carry cash anyway, so I don't interact. Unless they ask - then I apologize and say no.
