I can't fukk with this video for the simple fact that he traded $1000 for millions of guaranteed likes/hits/views, which in return will earn him way more than the stack he just spent. Sure the homeless man got a quick come up, but he'll be back to being broke and fukked up within a few days while this video will be going viral and racking up $$ for that dude. It's just a play on emotions, both the guy and the viewers. The homeless guy's reaction was genuine, the prankster's motives weren't. Smart move, but I'd have preferred if it was genuine.

This is a terrible way to view this. If someone gives someone less fortunate something that can help them, whatever ulterior motive there is, it's still a good thing. There is no true "altruism" everybody does something for some benefit, whether it's for their own personal feeling of self-worth or some other reason.

And isn't showing this to the world a good thing? Even if one person out of those millions of views goes out and does something similar, mission accomplished, message sent

Man, sit yo ass down.
Man, just because you don't realize what is happening doesn't mean it isn't happening.

This guy is just another impoverished Black person propped up for likes and Youtube views. Yall think I'm crazy but this phenomenon VERY REAL and it hurts you in the long run.

Watch them put this guy on TV... and then watch when they start talking about his past criminal record and then his ultimate failure despite the "life changing" hand out that he got on Youtube. It'll play out like cockwork. Black people are getting straight up FINESSED into perpetual social subserviency.

I agree. I've seen this reposted on fb many times. Nothing but positive comments. But of course when you come on thecoli, there's somehow something wrong with what this guy did

I can't believe that you fake militants have your head so fukking blocked that you're making this a fukking racial issue.

Dude gave the man $1000 and that's it.

The fact that @The Nigerian aka the BIGGEST c00n on this site who says the most racist shyt toward blacks who is now trolling as a militant is the person yall are cosigning is why i can't take u nikkas on this site seriously

:comeon: Breh, it was a prank. He was going to give him $1000 regardless, but used the lottery ticket as a device for it. As I said, the only issue was that the guy never told him upfront that it was a prank, and spoke why he did it.
