"Give me 1 dollar"

Depends whether you want travel and board and lodgings included I haven't got that many windows or that much garbage

I have no desire to know what kind of person he is and I always presume that other people are good, honest people. My intent would be to show him that he should not expect something for nothing and advise him that it is better to offer something and be rewarded for doing it rather than just beg for it.

hey mys.... Give him one dollar, in agreement to do some work with you. so that you can know what kinda person he is. think again -vine.

IF you really wanna help people, wait for a while, take his interview, you can know much more about him, if you believe on him you can donate... just leave is not good idea. If you don't have money, then that's another thing. How can you trust in trusted campaigns. Will they show their bills to you? Think again. -vine.

I don't want to talk to strangers and I'm not interested to know what their life is. Trusted campaigns are that of Unicef, Red Cross and some local one in my country.

That is a perfect example of why I insist on service. A few years ago, I got my car stuck in the deep snow, where one would usually park. Couldn't get it out myself, and the local homeless drunk people were right across the street, shovels in hand no less. I don't mind giving my money to them, after they dig my car out, I know they are just going to go into the "strong drink" store and get a bottle. But, since they provided a service, it didn't bother me at. I have seen, over and over again the kind of thing you mention, either personally or in stories from friends, and not so much anymore, the media. I thank you for sharing this. With Appreciation.

I agree sweetie. Instead I would start a business that would employ many, and feed many more. Nobody should be asking only for a dollar! If they asked for a job, or food, it would make more sense. Only problem is here it is kids, elderly, and disabled who do that. I do give at such times, and wonder if I am doing right. Most of them are trapped into a racket. :(

Vandana, sweetie, we have to be patient. The world's changing. Everything will work out, eventually. TATA.

It's okay to share, when you got to share!

hello mackie,the question is only when you are able.....and $1not$2...may be you'r very generous when dealing with $2.what'll you do if the demand is $100 and you have some extra dollars? Will you share $200 with him?........

Why not?If only I have so much of everything why can't I share my blessings?

hello, hcvvmk By asking a dollar that way, you feel , he's cheating with you, right? What is the feeling in you? politeness? why? why you need politeness? if somebody speaks, or borrow something politely then you will give money, without knowing anything, whether he's cheating on you? or he;s really in trouble. think again -vine.

yea..of coz if we ask/need soemthing from other people, politeness is a must..you don't tell that the a person ask a dollar from you rudely and you will give it to him right..anyway I will give it to him, i considered it as a charity, whether he's cheating on me or not, that's his problem..God is not blind..he will suffer from retribution..but let us think WHAT IF he needs it? We'll be glad and happy if..i would rather be thinking what if he needs it rather than what if he's cheating me..:)

I have a feeling, i can feel them, i don't have money, student, how can i give money. ya, i also like to give food, but that food is only for hours. ]] so you feel, if some one ask in the name of deity, then you feel they are cheating on you? Thank god, you donate. Do you like to sponsor some one directly, if some one like to study, but they don't have money. Just because of money, they can't study. my feelings, it's better directly help, you can see them progressing...you can see life change in front of you....you can become God of him, if he/she really deserves. Thanks -vine.

He is a stranger.

Hi, cookie, By saying sorry you don't wanna hurt, soul burn. But i don't think here in mylot.com, we don't need to say sorry to everyone...because we are individual, and each individual have unique opinions and feelings, it's a discussion field too. Ya opinions may very...differ.. we just need to say what we feel. We can say " according to my feeling or opinion" like that way.. -thanks -vine.

As a further response : Give a fish to a man,and he will eat for a day.Teach him how to fish,and he will have food all his life , I hope I got it right,OreoCookie3 Isn't the topic we are debating here? Nowadays a certain quantity of help and information is available everywhere and ANYONE is capable of rising themselves from the dirt they are living, I am not saying that there are no tragedies,that would be nothing but stupid from me, but begging..that's low.. We are not in the Middle ages anymore...We are in 2010 and anyone has opportunities! I would better sweep the streets and clean people's windows than begging! Even a old man can do small things and that's why there are certain ORGANIZATIONS THAT TAKE CARE OF THE INCAPABLE PEOPLE! Rinzgca you are right,here in Romania the Gypsy population AS WELL as the ROMANIANS take advantage of old people ,children, or themselves to rip off people, by begging ,by stealing or worse going through self mutilation and violence ,because it's their own choice! Am I an atheist ? Yes. Do I believe in the RULES of the Bible? Yes. Are we capable to make our own luck? Yes. What's there more to say? Cheers!

On the other hand, some beggars are just being used by syndicates to get money without working. These people would use little kids, old men and women and make them beg in the streets, or sell flowers. Other beggars make it their work to beg. With that in mind, should people still give money to fuel the greed or laziness of some people? Just a thought.

hehhehe pierone Ya, they are good persons, but don't like to pay ...for god. But one thing is sure, they definetely don't send you money, even if you have not mention gods name. -vine.

Jesus said to donate, help. you will go to the church and then give money. What are the church people doing, they are also asking money, in the name of God. -vine.

jaja I am glad you liked that.

climber, how are you? If they are capable of doing jobs. That;s great idea to give . To give a idea is also a help. Thanks for your help. smile. -vine

What didn't you understand I said if I had the dollar I would give it. Read the answer again that was the first sentence.

If things will happen the way same as i have asked, will you give dollar?

congratulations... you are well on your way... perhaps, even more...

Thank you. This question will hit more then 500 answers. believe me. Keep on watching. -vine.

Thank you Shena, To help a poor is really good. People don't like to give him, because he use god name .... what kind of thinking is that... what's wrong with that.. -vine.

hi, marashi, if you really like to help him, give him one dollar, you can ask, why he need a dollar? It seems you don't like to loose money. what's wrong with name? what's wrong with God's name.? If he really loves Jesus... you feel he's cheating... If some beggar, tell you he has pain inside stomach, then will you believe on him? or you ask for a proof? pain inside is just to experience. you can not also show your pain, to others. you just feel that pain. if you have a headache , you can not show it to other, you just feel... thank you -vine.

Shena,if it was your thinking then you could be cheated by beggars easily wherever you go.:P
