I think it was 10 dollars sometime last yr

10 dollars I think

only few coins :D

I've given random bums joints of primo weed back in the day, I've handed out old blankets and jackets, and bought beer or other alcohol for them. I've bought lunches for homeless people, mcd's, or just a sandwhich from a deli.

I've also given bums $20 bills if they had a good line about helping themselves and other homeless people. I've also given bums $20 bills that were straight up and said what they wanted the money for, ie drugs or alcohol.

Duke wound up giving some cool rapping bum a few dollars the other night.

there are no bums where i live, so 0

I used to walk from my office at Bryant Park in NYC to the Port Authority. Everyday there was a guy dressed as Jimi Hendrix playing his old tunes.

When I finally left that job and moved to Florida, I dropped a $100 bill in his guitar case.

He made me smile on more than one occasion.

$20 is the most. I find it best to call them on whatever it is they're asking for. They say they need food.. .offer food... 75% of them will turn you down. The other 25%, you are actually helping.

I always give em dollar or two or sometimes $5 or $10. But I always wish I could help more.

The best one is when Spannow gave this guy money (we won't mention how much, but it was very very generous) on 3rd Street Prominade in Santa Monica for the Webmasters last year.... he (the "bum") was sitting at the table next to us.

The "bum" thanked him/us and then pulled out his wallet which included three credit cards.

Mind you, the guy didn't want the money, he was just enjoying his slice of pizza, alone. We took over his table and made a new friend. I'm sure he made good use of it and Spannow had a good feeling the rest of the night =)

Wait... I think it was Sleazy.... Sorry Spannow. Didn't mean to make you out to be a humanitarian ;)

50 homeless people charity givers

better give them some bread

Once a year i do a closet clean out and take all my older shoes, shirts, pants, etc....and go down to a street full of bums and leave it in the middle of them and tell them FREE STUFF FOR EVERYONE....FREE SHOES and CLOTHING FOR EVERYONE....imagine the scene.....now that something to take video of.... RealityBums.com :-) ..... lol...you get some bum fights once in a while...

he was probably getting into his dealers car.....

I use to give people 5-30 bucks when they ask me. I think it's a kind of duty for successful people to give to the poor ones

Dont have any here, you'd have to drive to Melb. and then I'm sure it's nothing like the states. I like buskers, but hardly see them either, I think they are cool though as long as it's in tune.
