Instead of giving them money,go and volunteer at a homeless shelter. I have done that for 2 yrs and money can not buy the joy you get when you help others.

Don't know if he was homeless or not, but I gave a guy a buck a week ago that was standing outside an all night store asking for change

I happen to live in a cililized country, the Netherlands, where the only homeless people are so by choice, so I don't have to.

The last time one asked. I really don't know when it was must have been months ago. I always give em what ever I can spare. They may spend it on beer or drugs but that's their choice. If someone asks me to help and it's in my power I'll do it no question.

They receive benefits ( in Australia) just as unemployed people do. Mismanagement of money is more commonly their problem. If they ask me for money I may buy them a drink and some food, that way I know it's not going towards alcohol which is very common

I have never given them money. But I did give a homeless man one of my tacos as I was pulling out of Taco Bell.

Its been awhile, since I havent seen a homeless person in quite some time...
But then again, I dont go out much, unless its to run errands... (being retired is great!).
I wish you well..

I give quite often,but I don't think it's to cool to tell about it.It taints
the purity & decency of it all.
Unless there's a joke here & I missed it. I am dense.

When they used it to buy drugs.
I usually keep fast food gift cards in my car and when I see someone that might need it I just give it to them.
They won't be hungry or high.
