Begging,money,mylot.

No begging here my friend. I love to post information to share with others that I hope will make their life easier. I love a good joke and often share it with others here. Laughter is good for the soul. Begging for money on this is something that people will do. Many too are the people who post foolish crap, and leave the same for their responses. I just overlook them. If they respond with idiot remarks in my discussion, they get a negative rating. You have a very Merry Christmas. Enjoy.

I haven't seen that, yet. Merry Christmas to you too. People do spend alot a money, for Christmas. Not me.

sorry dear, but unless u are in need of money and if u have not faced any crises, u should not call anyone a begger

I know you probably wasn't talking about me personally, but I felt guilty for having read my own discussions and I would like if I could have deleted my whining and moping about no money for Christmas. I do want to say in defense of myself that I don't believe I asked anyone for money, but I wanted to earn it. In any case, I totally agree with you, because I am grateful for what I do have. So, thank you for (inadvertantly) bringing this to my attention and I wish you a "Merry Christmas" as well.

i noticed a few discussions like this and i agree it is an abuse of mylot . The ones that really annoy me however are the ones who try to get security information out of you, i even had one asking for credit card details lol

I think that these beggers are just desparete...or greedy...I haven't seen any of these posts...hope not to either! People do spend too much money at Christmas...I have used the freecycle group, and thrift stores, to gain items for my children that I could never afford for them....they will apreciate them...it's better than nothing. And having a "good" christmas is being with family in the first place...remember the reason for the season....My husband hasn't been able to work all month...slow time of the year for his business, jobs are scarce...and we will be lucky to buy one thing a piece for our children at the Dollar store..(I'm not joking, and not begging...just stating true facts)...but I would never in my wildest dreams post to beg on this site or anywhere else...there are agency's who help people with Christmas...TOys for Tots,Salvation Army....thats where they accept the beggars!....MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOURS!

I saw one like that the other day and thought shame shame shame. If I don't have enough money to get my son just 1 gift, I will turn off my internet. It is 45.00 per month and that is plenty for a decent present. We live on one income and yes, it's difficult, but we streamline and it works out. Part of being a parent is sacrifice...some of the beggers need to sacrifice and they may see a difference.

I see that a lot and wonder "what ever happened to pride." It used to be people would try to hide their poverty. Now they want everyone to give them a handout.

Take it easy buddy....control your emotions,this is human life..any way MERRY CHRISTMAS

i have noticed those beggers to..just because u have no money fdont mean u have no xmas..i knwo the city i live in there are so many resources that u can have a great happy xmas..being wiht family and enjoying each others company is better then presents any how:)

so dont help them,,

I also noticed a lot of these posts which are soliciting money from mylotters. THey try to manipulate people with a sob story - but in the end all they want is money. Its strictly against the guidelines and I am sure these posts get deleted! LOL - I am also tempted to spin a sob story and ask for money sometimes.. but hey SOME of us are too adult for that :P Poverty or riches this is life and we must just do the best we can...

I have seen one of thes and just didn't bother with it. I figure if they don't get comments they won't make cash.

People come out of the woodwork around Christmas. Some honestly are needy, but if this is really the case they will be able to find many local charities to help them out this time of year. A lion's share of the blatent beggers are looking for an easy handout, perhaps even initiating a scam. People do tend to be more generous around Christmas.

well those are discussions, not necessarily good ones but still discussions. though it is annoying some times to come across such discussions, just ignore them i mean for myself thats what i do. and one thing more i believe its against mylot rules for this type of discussions so i think they can qualify for abuse. greetings. : )

I agree, you can have a wonderful Christmas without spending lots of money, you don't have to have all that stuff, I haven't seen this either yet, but I will definaly be aware. Merry Christmas, thanks.

I haven't see these.. I don't think mylot is the place for them to get real help. I think that if people really need the help they need to go outside to the real world.. and find something. I think they start these discussions for people to post on them.. so they make money like that.. I hope these people Find real help.. Merry Christmas to you also and your family.. God bless and pray for these people.. thats what they are needing..

I think that's ridiculous. Why are people doing that? I can see saying that but not begging for money. I haven't seen it but I don't do much on here because I'm too busy. However, if I see it I'll definitely give it a negative rating.

I agree. I think it is great to get things used. I go to www.craigslist.com and look for used items.

no begging anywhere please
