Like maybe the ones that aren't begging? Like maybe the old man you pass on your walk the the office everyday who is never drunk and you even run into him when you are out drinking and he's sober trying to sleep on the steeps of a church.

The Socioeconomist in me knows the value of a single dollar has much more weight for him than it does me. Shit I've wasted at least $100 playing Pokémon Go over the past months when I'm bored and waiting for an Uber or grocery shopping.

I try to roll the dice and pick the people I think aren't getting a lot of sympathy.

Maybe im wrong and he spends it on dope. Not my business after point of transaction. I also like to pay the mentally ill because they honestly just cherish kind words, interest and a handshake. They cherish being seen as a human being not something to be ignored. If he's a regular on my route to work I bring him healthy food like apples and protein.

Sometimes maybe i dont give a I've a homeless person money but I acknowledge them with respect.
