The begging profession has been badly hit by the increased use of Credit Cards. People don't carry cash on them and the beggar's Kashkols (begging bowls) go empty. I think its better that they get one of those wireless credit card swapping machines and carry it with them. Every profession has moved on with technology so why not beggars. Its a one time investment.
I hope you didn't just ignore the above. Considering the current financial crisis and the upcoming future, this may actually not be a bad idea for each one of us. Its still better than stealing or turning into a thief you know.
nice idea but from where to start and how we aware ...
ReplyDeleteit easy to get job for beggars rather than influence them for card swapping machine ... because one day they get rid of it and sale it then again cycle go again

LOL...credit was the one that collapsed the disillusioned system...Now banks don't even give credit cards :-P
ReplyDeleteBeggars are very practical people as you can see from the cartoon..." In God we trust, all others pay cash" :-D
Ok, well maybe they should go to their local library, snag a few minutes of internet time and sign up for a paypal account. Then instead of carrying a bowl they can just ask people so donate directly to their account. Then they get a paypal card and every time they use it they get cash back. :)
ReplyDeleteNice,I also suggest a federal bail out program too!In our country if beggars loose job,who is going to provide them job when so many talented,well educated people are without job.
ReplyDeleteIt will be a crisis!
I think Mr.100% know all the tricks of bussiness!
And who's going to finance them to get a credit card swapping machine? :P

It's just a few people like you who have realized this... unfortunately I think it will take forever to convince the world about the importance of not using credit cards and their impact on beggars.
ReplyDelete^^
And yes, the same question again.. who is gonnah finance them?
:P
Yeah, I've seen a geomentary on them. It's actually their "shauq",werna they don't need to do it. idiot them!!!
ReplyDelete@youtee - well one who is ahead of the pack is the successful one these days...
ReplyDelete@yesterdaywazbetter - I am sure beggars run many lending services around the world with the money they make...trust me...they are way better off than most of us...
@qurrat - don't worry....beggars have enough finances...in fact they might be the one who would be bailing out a lot of these companies heading for bankruptcy...
@dinky mind - idiot us...trying to earn money through respect and dignity heheh...
This cartoon is a threat to Begging Culture =D
ReplyDeletespread it to 100 Beggars and you will get some good news within 24 hours... lol!
@jingoist - well that would be pretty much everybody these days including myself 20 times...does sending email to myself count? will the good news be for me or the people I send to?
ReplyDeleteLets make revolution by motivating Beggar to have uniform , new "KASHKOL" and Card swapping machine and ask them to select the best item ...
ReplyDelete@youtee - you call that a revolution? umm...read the same again and think politician...we wouldnt be far off...rest assured...
ReplyDeleteAh ... i have actually used the excuse of not having enough cash at some point in time :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I am sure very soon they WILL UPGRADE them too... lolz
