Broke

Today, I saw my ex asking for change outside a store. I was so shocked and sad to see him in such a position, I offered to take him home with me, let him shower and cook him a good meal. He laughed in my face and said, "Nah, I just do this for some quick bucks. It’s easier than working." FML

I really loath people like that. Too lazy to work so they act homeless. Believe it or not some people actually make a good living off of doing that, as long as you really know what you're doing. It still pisses me off. Just have a job like everyone else to earn an honest living. *sigh* Some people... 😐

Wow, you must be a terrible cook! And maybe lacking in other skills?

Must be a bustling, super-city he's busking in because asking for spare change is infinitely harder than a job.

Almost every study shows it's actual a terrible way to make a living, and that it's much better to just get a regular job if you're able. Maybe he was just lying to save face.

And that is EXACTLY why you don't give change to beggers. Most homeless people don't actually do that. The ones that do are almost all professional con artists.
