Homeless people on the street: Rarely. Sometimes I offer food. Sometimes pocket change.
Friends: Never, unless in emergencies. And in that cause I will just give the money away. I hate having money in between my friendships--it totally changes the relationship.
Family--Never, I just gift it if they need help.
-
With homeless people I'd rather just buy them some food than give them money. But I gave $20 to this one homeless woman once; she had a kid, so I couldn't ignore her
-
homeless- if i'm charitable, but would rather give to shelters or other organizations
friends- depends. i have two friends where we'll cover each other and we trade off fairly regularly so it's fine.
family- don't have any beyond parents.
-
I need to stop.
Across all of my friends and family I've easily lost over $5,000 :(
WOW
-
You're one generous dude, cohen.
-
homeless: my change and if they're asking for food (or have children), I'll get them food.
Friends: Depends on how close they are and how well I know them to be financially stable. I'm not going to help them out because they were being extremely irresponsible. We all have rought patches though. If I give it, I really don't expect it back.
Family: If I have it, all you have to do is ask because my family would definitely do the same for me.
-
I'm OK with it, how much do you need?
-
Homeless people: i'll give them money, or beers if I have them.
Friends: If they need it, they got it.
Family: Always.
Can I have $20?

FA is one of the most generous people I've known. All around good cat. He's helped me out a shit ton of times. He's an angel in disguise. :P

Homeless- I've never encountered a homeless person on the street the entire time I've lived here, but I'll give them my change if I have any, I hate carrying change
Friends- Depends on how much I like them. I've got a select inner group, not anyone is eligible. I expect them to pay it back in some way.
Family- Nah, fuck them, they wouldn't return the favor
The only person you should look out for is yourself.
-
And I'll shrug them off - I've come across several in Miami and LA
-
Friends: Sure
Family: Sure
Strangers: Maybe.
Homeless: If they dont have limbs ill give em 5 if its easy to do. Really depends what mood im in when it comes to able bodied homeless.

i dont do it.
if someone needs help i may give them money - but i hate the tension of loans.
-
if i lend money, i'm basically assuming i will never get it back.
this helps me not to "lend" too much out.
-
Friends: If they need it, they got it.
Family: Always.
same.
-
Family: always
Friends: If the need it
Bums: Get a job
Strangers: Depends
