  • I know in my city I’ve seen a “homeless” guy beg for money, with a cardboard sign. Then goes and gets into his sports car and drives off.

    And that got me thinking. Most people who give, don’t give a dollar. They give a few dollars. So lets just say they get about $40 in an hour.

    That’s $40 untaxed. And there’s nothing stopping them from just doing this all day. Remember, I’m not talking about actual homeless people. I’m talking about scam beggers.

    Imagine doing $40 an hour average, for 10 hours, every day, for doing nothing. Set your own schedule. Never gotta worry about being late. Can’t get fired. Practically zero costs to start this business. You need a piece of cardboard, a marker, and MAYBE a folding chair.

    So yeah. I’d say it’s an industry. An unregulated, scam, borderline illegal industry.
