Never. I used to be nice about my refusal, though.

If I believed these people were actually homeless and were going to spend the money on food instead of booze or drugs or cigarettes I might occasionally. But I don't.

Haven't done it once since I moved to NYC. Gave a dollar every once in a while when I was still in college.

One time i remember seeing a guy with a sign saying him and his family were stranded and needed money for gas

And he was there 3 days in a row

And I don't think his family was even there

Or if they even existed

Almost never. I've known people that panhandled and hung around with other panhandlers and told me about them and the amount of genuine people that use the money for necessities are extremely minuscule.

I'll give food if they want it, however.

If you give panhandlers food you're just indirectly giving them drug money
