About 15 yrs ago, the police told me never to give money to a panhandler because they made about $60,000 a yr in cash and never paid any taxes on it.
I never would give cash to a panhandler. At best, I would offer to buy them a sandwich, but I don't even do that anymore.
Honest or not, I don't give them money. I work to pay for what I need and want. And yes, I know there's a recession going on, but how many of the people who have been recently laid off are out there panhandling?

There is a disabled man that appears at the same corner every morning. I never give him anything. Apparently he's doing pretty good without any of my money. He's gone from a wheel chair to one of those motorized scooters for disabled people. They cost about $2500.
