RE: PAY IT FORWARD FOR THE HOLIDAYS (Year 5)

Thanks! That's all it takes. It is tough to determine who really needs the help. When I worked downtown a litmus test I used was to offer to pay for a meal instead of giving them money. There were plenty of restaurants around so that was easy enough to do. If they turned down the food, more often than not, they were either scammers or were going to use the money to buy a bottle or drugs.

Yeah, that makes sense. In the case of gas it was easy because I was able to just pay and they applied it to the pump he was parked at.
