No cash since I got to know some people who made around $30 an hour that way for years. I might offer to buy a meal, mostly because it's entertaining to see these professional scammers get all pissed off and tell me to go fuck myself because I offered to buy tnem a burger.
Normally they'll have some story about their car being broken down or whatever. For a while the popular one here was to claim to be a Katrina refugee. I'll confirm it's BS by asking a simple question or two, like what town they're from. If you need help, I'll help. If you try to scam me by saying you're out of gas, but refuse when I offer to buy gas for you, I'm not going to just give money to a scammer.
I don't judge the drunks and the druggies either. I also don't assist in their suicide usually usually. That's not judging them as people, but choosing to use my resources to help someone rather than hurt them. I buy dinner for a drunk who is sobering up several times a year.
