Have you ever resorted to begging for money?


I tried it once (for some stupid reason) but I wasn't very successful at it....

No, Im too busy dealing with peeps begging me for money.

I beg my sugar momma for money every month but she always makes me cut her ingrown toenails first.

No, but I did busk in North America, Australia, Europe, and Asia and would play drums or guitar until I had enough money for my hostel. In Australia I had a license, so maybe that doesn't count. I was partly broke, and partly wanting to play music, and not to an audience of people who came to see me, but people walking the streets and their busy lives, making it more challenging to get them to stop and listen.

Busking is NOT begging. It's street performance.

I like the atmosphere that buskers create. A little oasis in the chaos of busy streets.

Only from people I know

No. I would never do that.

When I worked as a salesman on Hollywood Blvd, one evening I was waiting for my ride and I sat on the stairs of a building and asked those passing "got a dollar?", Just to entertain myself.

Some couple walking past asked if I could take their photo, I did. They walked away and my friend pulled up. I said to him "got a dollar?" And he said "no but I'll give you a ride." I said "oh cool where are we going?" As I got in the couple came over with a dollar bill and said "here's a dollar." I took it. Lol

No and beggars piss me off.
