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.
actually he raised 40k for the dude, check the description box. I am wondering if you people watched the video.

if being exploited means getting $20k and living in a nice home rent free for a year, exploit me

Yeah I guess friend.

Im not gonna drop jewels on the reasons why since folks already have the " savior complex " in full affect here.

no homie is being exploited.
so what if he is?

i understand how some could have conflicting views, but looking at it down right negatively is crazy. yes, he's being exploited to a degree. but he just received a home with furnishing, bills paid, and a savings account with thousands in it already. hopefully they can find employment for him to keep his life on track.

why would some of you ( @The Nigerian ) prefer he be left on the streets to rot

No one said we would like to see him stay on the streets, but its other ways of going about it. All of this could have been done without seeking public acknowledgement on some " Hey folks I saved a poor negro this will do wonders for my resume"

it wouldn't have even happened if a popular youtuber didn't make a video about him. i mean, how do you raise over 40k for someone you don't even know?

im sure the guy doesn't mind his story being filmed and the prank guy getting some subscribers and youtubes money off it. christ :snoop:

Two things.

1. I was ready to become very angry at someone I don't even know IF this had turned into some cruel shyt.
2. At least the homeless brotha didn't do anything in that video to degrade himself or put himself in a compromising position.
