definately. im sick of the "every man for himself" attitude. People should help eachother and create good karma, then it would become infectious and spread. capitalism gets on my ****! |

IF, taking £1 out of your pocket wouldn't hurt.
IF, donating that £1 wouldn't change your lifestyle.
&
IF, just by spending £1, you are able to put a smile on someone's face.
IF, £1 is all you need to put someone's troubles & worries away.
Then, i believe, that £1 would be one of the best kind of money spent in a person's life. |

Yes, why not. Sometimes I throw in an extra £1 coin at Dartford Crossing the help the stranger driving behind me. |

I have often given a bit of change to people at tills who are a bit short. Don't know if i would give it to some one to help pay off debts they have racked up. What goes around comes around. |

Probably not, I would just think they were trying to con me.
Though if anyone wants to donate £1 to me, I would gratefully receive it. |

Yes, but Id wonder if they had asked eg, 50 people for £1 and therfore never pay their own bills. The person concerned is probably loaded whilst the likes of me who'd give the £1 are struggling top pay our own bills but would not have the nerve to ask a stranger |

Yes if he approach me and tell me that he is in trouble and for some reason he needs to pay his bills. |

Absolutely not.... Bills are chosen.... IF they choose to have bills then they need to choose to get another job or perhaps 4 jobs to pay for them.
Nothing gained if you have everything handed to you. |

A part of me would love to say yes but in reality if someone asked me I would probably think it was some form of con and think that they were better off than me in the first place!!! I have helped people out when they realise they don't have enough to pay for their shopping before but that was my decision and I was not asked so it doesn't really answer the question! lol |

If they're a stranger, how do I know they're not just going to use the money for drugs or alcohol? They could be lying. Plus I'm a student, so can't afford it! |

what? every stranger, every bill?
I'd give a quid to help out someone short for bus fare or in a shopping que.
Nobody helps me |

If they only wanted £1, and I could spare it, of course I would. |

Yes and have done so many times in the past. Not always a £1, sometimes only a few pence that someone is short, or are struggling to find. Most people would try to decline the offer due to a sense of pride / embarrassment, but a smile always helps and adding that your hoping that by giving, the favour may be returned one day when you find yourself in the same position. |

No as they would spend it on loose living, drink and gambling. Anything left they would squander. |
