A poor man’s sign for help

Yesterday I was driving home, and if you live in Miami and have ever been to 57th and US-1 You know there is usually a poor man standing there with a sign asking for money. This man yesterday had a sign that read: ” Please help children in need, they need food too”. Now I was thinking…. Should I give this guy money even though he is obviously putting it out there that he’s lying and using children as an excuse, even worse….

My thoughts:

So I thought to myself would people be willing to give a guy money who’s sign read ” Please help children in need, they need food too” vs. “Please help, need money for food, drinks and drugs”. Or whatever he actually needs the money for? So I sat there thinking for a second or two and I think I rather give money to the guy who’s honest. Even if it is for some alcohol. At least I know he’s being honest. BUT What do you think? What would you do??

xo,
