Since when did beggars have Cell Phones?

[gho3st]

How you on the street with a sign, asking for money, but got a cell phone???

 

[B86]

Welfare phones, I assume. But that's one of the reasons it's hard for me to sympathize because I feel like if you have a phone then you should be able to get a job too

The same time they could afford cigarettes and alcohol all day

This ain't the 90s. Phones are just as common as shoes

 

[The Coochie Assassin]

Is it an iPhone 8 or a Safelink phone?

 

[TheBlackSun]

ain't you ever heard of a prepaid phone? There's quite a few brands out there that sell phones for as little as $30

Half them beggars ain't homeless. Plus most modern smartphones are uniform in look and design so unless you all up in the casing trying to note the brand, chances are it's some budget brand like a BLU or some shyt.

they're using their begging money to run up in AT&T and pay their bill?

some hotel rooms are just 30 dollars a night - go get a room fam.

"somebody might be paying it for them!" - so tell that person to get them a little shytty one bedroom apartment for the same amount of money that phone bill is

i know we're in this let's just accept everything era, but

there's no rational explanation for a homeless person to have a cell phone

What kind of privileged white man question is this?

Ever heard of prepaid phones, you can get one of those for less than $20.

reminds me of this 'blind' man who has been sitting in the same corner in town since i was a kid.
like 3 years ago i found this nikka dancing,ordering drinks and grabbing on chicks in the deepest, darkest part of the hood.
clearly nikka thought no one would recognize him in the hood.
nikka had me convinced for most of my life that he was blind.
