I keep seeing questions that basically ask for a hand-out, and I'm thinking to myself, "This is just TOO GOOD!" So I figured I'd get in on the act and beg for money also. If ya can't beat 'em, join 'em!
I'm not especially poor (I make $11,000 a year, my budget works, I'm saving for retirement and I have a little house to call my own), but I'm not rich either. Hmm, not pathetic enough.
Sometimes, when I eat a meal, I want dessert, but I can't afford it!
I haven't had any alcohol since January! I can't even afford to drink! How I crave my precious Long Island Iced Tea! Lol. I have no idea how these people sound congruent. I'm not a good sob story-writer.
But just in case anyone out there has some money to burn, please send me as much as you like to geeloeeloee@yahoo.com through Paypal. I'd much appreciate it.
Why don't we all go start a web site called BeggarsRing.com?

Update: Some people have no sense of humor. I'd be seriously surprised if somebody sent me money because of this. Note that "surprised" does not mean "would complain about it."
I cannot imagine being so wealthy I don't want more.
The point of this question was to joke about people who beg in earnest. Since you have more money than I, go to goodwill and purchase a sense of humor.

I was about to compliment you on your ability to live reasonably on such a minimal salary. Then I got to the end of the post where you gave your PayPal address and invited folks to send.
Sorry, but that doesn't fly with me.
If you want to beg, head to Goodwill and buy a tin cup and a pair of sunglasses.

I tried it myself on another type message board but I just asked them to send me $6 so I could get rich without having to find a list to paste and send dollars to people. Some said they would but I didn't believe them. :(

On a serious note go to 2opps.com and join linkshare or sfi marketing group that way you can make over $2,000 and you wont have to beg.
