That's funny, and very open "I have a debt (I've created it), so ppl pay it off" , that's why I don't give change to bumps in the subway and on the streets. They are really pissing me off when they start actually barking that ppl are not helping them, damn.
I work hard to get my bread and butter, and I have a debt too (fresh college grad), SO SEND ME MONEY TO PAY OFF MY DEBT, MY ADDRESS IS ... No it ain't working, and I would've created the same dontsavewhoever site as these guys did. Lol, and it ain't funny, ppl are actually sending money to bumps like karen.

That's worse than the people that ask for money on the streets. People are stupid enough to send her money too, its disgusting to me someone would actually do that.

Oh well, let the stupid people give her money.

Usually the only time I give a dollar or some change is to the firefighters with their boots gathering for some charity.

Most of these people I don't trust. I once had a friend who worked at a resturaunt in Indianapolis. A guy down the street was always asking for money, I mean like everyday. I passed him by everytime I was coming home from work. He looked like he was really homeless, wearing the same clothes everyday.
One day my friend said he strolled into the resturaunt with his 4 kids and wife all dressed up in a suit, wife had nice jewelry and the kids all dressed up. They sat down and ate, leaving a 200 dollar tab with a 40 dollar tip. Hmmm... I bet his wife worked or was begging on the other side of town like himself and he made a good 40 grand plus a year from begging.
Oh the resturaunt my friend worked at was Benihana, if anyone that has been there, isn't the cheapest place to eat.

Oh well again..

No, I've never heard of her, even though I am from Brooklyn, NY. And as tricky I only donate to organizations that I know for sure are not fooling with me. I've donated a lot of stuff to rescue workers at WTC (boots, shirts, socks, etc, dog food for the rescue dogs, blood, etc.). But I am not going to donate anything to ppl who do nothing to get their a$$es off welfare program (I pay taxes for them and that's a lot), to homeless bumps, to anyone who don't deserve it.
