No. People are strapped in finances as is. My money right now is needed for expenses, I don't have that much disposable income to be tossing it around to people. There's thousands of homeless people out there. They need more help than just a couple dollars.
I feel that I'm doing my part anyways by helping the needing, by donating to thrift stores, donating around my apartment and donating free things that I can. If there's anything someone can flip for money, feel free to, it'll probably be a lot more than what little I have to let go of from my finances.
