I do unless they take advantage if the help I give them.I used to know this guy,he was an older guy.I was only friends with him.I felt bad for the guy because he was always having it rough.He basically took advantage of my help.I don't have a bed,because I was gonna be nice and was gonna sell him my bed,because I wanted a different one.He never gave me any money at all.I wasn't asking much.Then I had a job,he was giving me rides there to work,and everyday he wanted twenty dollars for gas and I only worked 6 miles away.While I am working he would drive around all day long burning up the gas I gave him so I can get to and from work.He would call me at work saying he needs more gas again or he can't give me a ride home.I ended up telling him off,he was a leech and takes advantage.I lost that job because after that I had no ride,but I had to get rid of the guy.I was very mean about it.I don't talk to him anymore.It does make me very careful about who I help.

Yah I do love helping helpless people in my most attainable and practical way. I gave foods to street kids, I dont give money because they might just waste it for useless things and conducts like gambling. I hate able bodied beggars, adult and normal but are just sitting in a street area to beg for the whole day even night instead of looking for a proper job suited for them. I am helpful for those who knows how to help themselves first and the innocent.
