But yeah, if you can spare it, give it.

How about the fisherman story where the beggar died of hunger when the fisherman died? Also that in real life many are really swindlers who would swear and be offended even for giving them food instead of money or too little money. I mean, there are plenty of people in real need and a helping hand would mean the world. But at the same time there are many who are perfectly able to work but don't want to, those will actually complain about your effort to help. Not to mention that will squander that help and to what they always do anyway.I usually will. To me, I don't care who they are, are they a genuinely homeless man or not. Because helping someone makes me happy. If someone I helped is a liar, I would say, "what a bad luck day."
I still remember a scene in the Netflix film <Old Guard>. Till today, this scene makes me warm. Please allow me to share it.
"Today, I put this on your wound."
"Tomorrow...you help someone up when they fall."
"We're not meant to be alone."
If you give a hungry man a fish, you feed him for a day, but if you teach him how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.
