since panhandlers almost never wear suits, they prolly got more money because of the sight of it, ya know? --- If people on this site truly believe this then I might as well be living in the twilight zone. Thanks Gohan! <3 Kanjo <3 xox {[1 NUT REMAINS]} o=========D ... Copied to Clipboard!

I remember watching a "social experiment" video where a mom in normal clothing holding a baby got more donations than a homeless person who looks like he has next to nothing. First impressions really matter. --- https://imgur.com/JXxiPHm https://imgur.com/JXxiPHm ... Copied to Clipboard!

I've seen panhandlers in suits back in the day in San Fran before the addicts took over. I think people would gravitate to donate more to the suit guy because most people would randomly assume the suit guy would appear more trustworthy and do something useful with the money instead of a typical homeless dude spending the cash on alcohol and drugs. It's all social perception and stigma. ... Copied to Clipboard!

They probably think a guy in a suit is looking for work. --- Ryzen 3700X | ASUS RTX 3070 8GB | 16GB DDR4 3200 | Crucial MX500 2TB ... Copied to Clipboard!

I saw some guy at a street corner in Detroit with a sign that said something along the lines of "I'm not gonna bullshit you, I just wanna buy beer." I wonder how much money he got. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I guess it kinda makes sense? If the guys in a nice suit you can assume hes at least been successful before. Plus hes got a suit to go to job interviews in. --- I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen... ...

I used to live near Raleigh. Ibwas a kid at the time so maybe I'm misrembering but iirc you had to have a license to panhandle and there was this well off woman who would call the cops on legit homeless people cause they where cutting into her panhandling Then there was a "homeless" (not sure if he really was) guy that would panhandle during the day but at night you'd see him go into a building and come back out in a high dollar suit. The license thing is what killed me. Supposedly it was only 5 bucks but a legit homeless person isn't gonna spend 5 bucks on that. Moot law too cause the cops typically wouldn't arrest the homeless. Just shoo them off. Had some actually try and get arrested and the cops wouldn't. They wherent trying to cop a lengthy prison sentence just trying to get a warm bed and food for a short while during winter --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"
