[QUOTE="Ryder, post: 402723, member: 663"] I agree. Better to write some off as bad debts than ignore one really in need. Not that you shouldn't be discriminating as best you can. There was one on crutches at a rest area I stopped at weekly. He needed money to get gas to go to Pensacola where his son had an accident and was in the hospital. The next week he was there hitting somebody up and I walked up and asked how his son was doing. He was speechless. After that when he saw me drive up he would run hide in the back. Another time at a gas station a guy said he didn't have enough gas to get home and asked if Iwould help. I gave him a $5 bill. He went inside and came back out with change and gave me $2. Told me he could make it with the $3. I'm glad I didn't turn him down. Seems like several will approach me in a short time. Then no more for a long time. People say I'm a sucker for a sad story. I guess maybe I am. But whatch gonna do? [/QUOTE]
