The people you see begging at major urban intersections are usually not real beggars. They are begging as a job. Not the homeless type you think about.
I have helped some that where really homeless but they where usually in parking lots in their car. One of these is a lady with four kids that was homeless 17 year ago. Her car was out of gas in a parking lot of a local strip store. I happened to be getting parts from a NAPA store there two days in a row. I saw her there with her kids playing around the car. She had just spent her last little bit of money on food for the kids. My wife and I helped her get on her feet. She now has a home cleaning business and cleans our house every other week.
Another was a family trying to get back to Missouri from the Twin Cities. They where broke down in a rest area on I-35. I helped them get their car going and gave them some gas money. I got the money sent back a few months later. I since visited them south of Springfield Mo.
One way to tell is if you give them a gift certificate good for food and they get mad you did not give them money. I have some that Fareway (A local grocery chain) has. They are only redeemable for food items only. Not smokes or booze. I carry a couple of them in my bill fold.
