danot Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Well some of them may do it, my friend once gave money to a homeless man, well thought he was homeless, around the corner he had a nice decent car parked up and got into it and drove off . Makes you wonder who is genuine now.What you ought to be asking is- Who would I prefer to give my spare change to? A man struggling to pay his mortgage or a wino scrounging for a can of Tennents super? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missflirtuk Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Oh i see. A friend of mine split up with her children's dad a bit back, and is a single parent with 2 kids, aged 1 and 4. She gets fortnightly income support of £140, weekly child tax credit of £100, weekly child benefit of £34, and maintenance at £23 per week. £297 once a fortnight... . Woah.
