Seems to me a lot of people needing this kind of help is due to making poor decisions in life. No education/trade skill, having babies they cannot afford, charging up credit cards they never intend to pay, buying stuff they cant afford, etc. I watched Suze Orman the other night and they showed this woman whose family took on a mortgage they knew they couldn't afford when they got the house. They never paid a single mortgage payment! It took the bank five years to get these deadbeats out of the house and she was on the show belly-aching that she had no money in the bank because they pissed it all away on three vehicles, new clothes, vacations, etc. And she was crying expecting people to feel sorry for her...the gall of people is amazing.

And even that doesn't always work.
Guy approached me outside fast food place one day "Man, I really need something to eat" ( and looked it ).
So I bought him the same meal deal I was getting. Got mine and went to sit out at a table to eat. I saw him arguing with the girl at the counter, then walk out the door, leaving the food on the tray. I went back up to the girl and asked what the deal was....
"He was trying to get 'his' money back for the food, and I told him once it was served, we couldn't do that....only replace it if there was a problem".
Guy wasn't interested in food....just money.
My dog appreciated the hamburger anyway.

Yep....seems a lot of stores now have their pet charity....and it really gets tiresome.
"Want to donate a dollar for (whatever)?".....after you just spent too much on their overpriced stuff..
You start studying "charities" and it's amazing how much of donations never leaves the office.
Some years back, Elizabeth Dole, then head of the Red Cross, was considering a run for president. The joke was she would have to take a 50% pay cut if she got the job. The president was then being paid 200k/yr.
Is it not possible SOMEBODY out there could run the Red Cross for a whole lot less than 400k/yr ??

Its only illegal if its done by the side of the roadway or on private property. If you do it from the confines of your domain, its legal, and they refer to it as liberalism.

Yep, and every corporation is guilty of the same thing, with tax breaks and subsidies to further their own success. Lazy people see it as the same thing. It works for big money, why not for the other parasitic people? Old fat and lazy big wigs do the same thing every day, but it is called capitalism and business savvy.

I worked out of Charlotte for awhile and panhandlers would be standing at the red light beside the motel. We would always take one a burger after work and he seemed grateful. One day we were sitting out on the balcony and saw that poor homeless man walk over and get into a new Mercedes and drive off. We saw him the next evening and asked him what he was doing begging at the red light. He said he could make much better money being a bum than he could at a real job. I feel sorry for people that are down on their luck...but some take advantage of us.

Agreed. I am 35 years old and am lucky enough to have never gone to bed hungry. I have been a food delivery driver for 7 years straight and have had good luck with vehicles until just recently. I am now without a car and in jeopardy of losing my job. Soon after I could be evicted from my residence. Both of my parents passed 16 and 14 years ago and I have very little family to ask for help. My point is that not all of those in need are lazy or so called bums or drug addicts. Just dont judge others because you have no idea how or why that person is in that position. People who have parents and grandparents and family to use as a safety net are very lucky. But realize not all of us are so lucky.

Ask jcpd were panhandling on wilson lol
#79 Dec 21, 2013
...Really? I love how everyone seems to think that having a job is so terrible, that people who panhandle would rather stand on the street, begging for money, getting cussed at and degraded, getting things thrown at them, and feeling the mind-numbing shame of it. Most of those people? Are genuinely down on their luck. Some of them have been without a job for a long time, and would love to have one. Some of them actually can't get one for whatever reason.
Panhandling is one of the most terrible experiences to go through. You do it because you HAVE to, to survive. Standing in traffic or on a corner for 4-12 hours is absolutely awful. Having people yell at you, having them roll down their window just to tell you what a terrible, lazy person you are? Without them knowing the first thing about you?
In case you can't tell, I am a panhandler. I do it not because I am lazy, unwilling to work, an addict, or anything like that. I do it because it's the one of the only options left to me. I got fired from my job because I couldn't get reliable child care, and was having trouble finding a new one. I started doing odd-jobs, mostly cleaning, and I found those on craigslist, and that was ok but it wasn't nearly enough to support myself or my kids. I responded to an advertisement for a cleaner, and I got attacked and had my wallet stolen. My ID, my SSC, my FoodStamp Card, my money for rent that month... Everything. The police (which would be the Sheriff's Dept, in Morgantown, WV) basically told me there was nothing they could do for me, and that I was wasting their time. After that, I will not go to another house that I found on craigslist. I got attacked and had basically my life stolen, for a job that was supposed to pay $45. I now can't get an actual job, because I have no id. I couldn't renew my foodstamps, I lost my house because I didn't have rent. I'm lucky I haven't gotten a visit from CPS yet, the way everything's going they would probably take my kids. I'm not a bad mom. I'm poor, and I can't seem to get back on my feet. I panhandle because it was the only thing I could come up with to do that actually allows me to provide.
I stand in an intersection for 1-4 hours at a time, 3-8 times a day. I have had things thrown at me, I have been cussed at and called names. There are some people that will go out of their way to tell me what a P.O.S. I am, because obviously they know me and my situation, and because I'm a young woman and physically able to work, and I'm a "lazy, no-good, beggar - GET A JOB!!".
I am so completely sick of people that think because they have a job, that they're better than me. I'm in a bad place, and have been for a couple months now. I am able to feed my kids, because of the kindness of strangers. Without that I wouldn't be able to keep them. I love them dearly, and I want them with me, but I won't let them go hungry, or without shelter. I am lucky enough to have family in my area. My family will help me with my kids, will buy me food on occasion, but nothing further. They can't help me further - they don't have the means. I have a car, and it's been my house several times. I had one woman see me get into it, and because I have a car (a beat-up, 14 year old car that barely limps along, mind you) I am not "poor enough" to panhandle. Never mind that it's my family's only means of transportation, that I bought it when I was still working, or that it's occasionally our shelter.
I'm tired of going out to stand in the street. I am tired of being put-down by jerks. I am tired of getting out there every day. I do it because I don't have a real choice. And this is the only way I can talk back to the people that yell at me. I can't do it while I'm out there, or I'm "ungrateful." So, to every single person that has tried so hard to make me feel worse that I already do?
#80 Dec 21, 2013
So, I finally got a whole lot of anger that's been building up off my chest. It makes me feel a lot better. So now, I have a message for every kind-hearted person that has stopped to talk to, or help out someone that's asking for help.
Thank you, so very much. I have accepted as little as kind words, and it always makes me feel better. You don't have to give me money, or food, or anything. A friendly word, or a laugh? Those things are priceless and held dear to my heart. Someone rolling down their window, just to tell me that they're praying for my situation to get better, or to make a joke to make me laugh, or once, a group of guys rolled down their windows, opened their doors, played a song at full volume and got out and danced and laughed with me. I hate doing what I do, but those moment of happiness? They are so wonderful.
Thank you, to everyone that has ever helped - in Any way.

Look, I've had to panhandle. I don't like it, but that's what I had to do to get food and gas in my car. I live in my car. I am starting a job in a few days, but I won't get paid for a few weeks. My husbands Dr. doesn't want him working till he gets surgery. I just got off bed rest from my surgery. Yea my foot still hurts, but I have to work. I am trying the best I can. Not all panhandlers are junkies. I don't appreciate being singled out. I work my ass off when I do work, but sometimes it just doesn't seem to help.
#83 May 12, 2014
How in the tax - paying world would I be taking money from a fellow tax payer by deducting something I have spent in to all year? Now, if you were discussing a fat-azzed lazy dead-beat person downloading 12 kids and then collecting all your welfare and child credits while not gainfully employed I may have a problem with your logic(or lack of). You are FOS and need to stop this wealth-envy BS. BTW, have you ever worked for a poor old pan-handler? Didn't think so.

Bakersfield spray parks will close on August 1 to help water conservation efforts
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - Our local spray parks may look fun but changes are on the way.
The city of Bakersfield Water Board held a meeting Wednesday to discuss closing spray parks.
The city was mandated by the state, and now spray parks will close on August 1 to conserve water. It will stay in effect for 270 days.
Many residents said they would be upset if this change went into effect because the spray parks is a free amenity that keeps them cool during the hot summer months.
Spray parks are usually open until October.

Blind FaithOUR MISPLACED TRUST IN THE STOCK MARKET—AND SMARTER, SAFER WAYS TO INVEST

Chapter OneThe Stock Market Can We Win at This Game?
The investor's chief problem—and even his worst enemy— is likely to be himself. BENJAMIN GRAHAM, FATHER OF VALUE INVESTING, SECURITY ANALYSIS, 1934
Many modern-day investors have become like crazed gamblers, risking their nest eggs and retirement money on visions of a chance at 20 percent-plus returns on their investment portfolios. Most of them don't even take the time to read a financial statement, yet they scamper to brokerage firms and mutual funds, surrendering every spare cent they can on a stock market system few of them understand. Greed, advertising, and peer pressure have lured them into a terrifying real-life game with sky-high stakes of fortune or poverty.
That's gambling.
Have investors forgotten that stocks do not exist just to give us a lottery ticket to future riches? Stocks finance the agendas of business and their corporate executives. It's a system run by professionals who spend a lifetime mining riches, at times contrary to the letter of the law. In the end, when the vein is dry, the gold is in their account; the fool's gold is what's left in our portfolios.
Who's Winning, Really—the Cold, Hard Facts
When it comes to making investment decisions, as Benjamin Graham said, the individual investor is often his or her own worst enemy. In June 2001 the research firm Dalbar Inc., of Boston, released a study entitled "Quantitative Analysis of Investor Behavior." The study examined real investor returns from January 1984 through December 2000. It found that the individual equity mutual fund investor realized an annual return of 5.32 percent compared to 16.3 percent for the S&P 500 index. In addition, the study found mutual fund investments were retained for an average of only 2.6 years.
The severe underperformance relative to the S&P 500 index and the frequent trading indicate very poor timing on the part of the individual investor. Dalbar previously conducted similar studies in 1994 and 1998. The 1998 study found that the return of the S&P 500 was five and one half times greater than the return earned by the average investor. All three studies showed that the typical mutual fund investor earned inferior returns to the S&P 500 as well as the average mutual fund.
Money magazine published a study by Charles Trzcinka, professor of finance at Indiana University, in June 2002. This fascinating analysis described the difference between the returns that mutual funds report and those of the average investor in the funds. According to Professor Trzcinka, the average mutual fund gained 5.7 percent during the four-year period of the study between 1998 and 2001, while the average investor earned only 1.0 percent. The study analyzed the returns of more than 6,900 U.S. stock mutual funds and adjusted for money that was shoveled in and yanked out during the period.
The table that follows enumerates some of the details of this unique study. The large disparity between the fund's stated returns and the amount investors actually realized was a surprise even to Professor Trzcinka. According to the professor: "The sheer magnitude of the difference we discovered between the total returns earned by mutual funds and the results captured by the average shareholder is shocking and tragic."
Dalbar attributes the chasm between mutual fund and individual performance to the active investor's destructive behavioral patterns, which include a phenomenon known as herd mentality. These patterns involve waiting for a fund to have a few good years and then pouring in a flood of cash just before the fund reaches its peak. The investor then proceeds to ride the fund to near bottom and sells out. This is precisely opposite to the conventional investment wisdom of buying low and selling high.
Both the Dalbar and Trzcinka studies reached the same conclusion. The Dalbar research indicated that investors underperformed the market by approximately 67 percent. The Trzcinka study, covering a different time period, indicated investors underperformed the funds they were invested in by about 82 percent. According to an Economic Policy Institute briefing paper, it will take the average household over thirty years to recover the wealth lost in 2000 and 2001 from market declines! With these miserable statistics, does it make sense for the individual investor to be playing this dangerous game of stock market investing?
* * * The Journal of Finance published a study in 2001 that was appropriately titled "Massively Confused Investors Making Conspicuously Ignorant Choices." Befuddled investors spend thousands of dollars purchasing stocks by mistake because they confuse company symbols. According to Harvard researcher Michael Rashes, investors often know so little about the stocks they buy and sell that they simply guess at what they think the ticker symbol might be and begin trading. Most would agree that this is not the best investment strategy.
Assuming investors correctly identify the desired stocks, they still must bear enormous market risk. Consider the period March 2000 through May 2002. It was common for technobuffs to lose 40 percent or more of their portfolio value. The family of Janus Funds, a favorite of individual investors, was extremely hard hit. Janus Fund lost 46 percent; Janus Twenty fell 61 percent; and Janus Worldwide dropped 49 percent during this period.
Many investors took a fatalistic approach. The common mind-set became "What can I do? Everyone is losing money in the market. Well, I'm not going to worry. I have ten years to make it back."
Losing money in any market is neither inevitable nor universal. Moreover, depending upon the timing, the investor may not have the luxury of waiting ten years to "make it back." Short-term losses can have devastating long-term impacts if money is needed for living expenses and is no longer there. The next ten years are just as subject to declines as the last ten. Attempting to beat the market always means taking on risk and can lead to the gut-wrenching possibility of further loss.
The primary objective of an intelligent investment strategy should be to preserve capital and build on it at a consistent, moderate rate in both bull and bear markets. But don't expect to hear this kind of advice from the professional money managers on Wall Street.
Investment performance is a zero-sum game. For every investor who beats the market, another one underperforms it. You would expect that the hardworking, skilled professional investors with substantial resources at their command would gain at the expense of the unskilled individual investor and consistently beat the market averages. But this is not the case.
The Professional Investment Manager vs. a Blindfolded Monkey
In 1985 Dr. Burton G. Malkiel's epic book, A Random Walk Down Wall Street, rocked the professional investment world. Dr. Malkiel, a professor of economics at Princeton University, concluded it was difficult, if not impossible, for the average active professional money manager to consistently beat an index of stocks, which by definition is unmanaged. His book was not a welcome addition to the library of financial literature—at least not from the perspective of Wall Street. Stockbrokers, investment analysts, portfolio managers, and other financial professionals pride themselves on their abilities to make money by implementing their exceptional understanding of the logic and rationality of the stock markets. It's what a good part of the investment industry is based upon—the marketing of expert advice.
Dr. Malkiel detonated this myth by exploring the limitations of active financial management. An academician, he used his scholarly tools to demonstrate that individual stock prices move randomly and are totally unpredictable in the short run. He reasoned that investors would be better off buying an unmanaged index of stocks in lieu of using a professional or trying to manage the funds themselves. According to Malkiel, "A blindfolded monkey throwing darts" could theoretically pick stocks as well as a financial professional.
* * * The disappointing performance of actively managed mutual funds by Wall Street professionals is well documented. Charles Ellis reports, in Winning the Losers Game, over 75 percent of professionally managed funds underperformed the S&P 500 index for the twenty-five-year period ending in 1997. Max Isaacman, author of How to Be an Index Investor, cites one analysis that showed an astounding 96 percent of professional money managers did worse than the S&P 500 index.
Another study conducted by Ira Weiss, an accounting professor at Columbia Business School, reviewed U.S. fund performance for thirty-six years through December 1997. He found that diversified funds gained an average of 12 percent less per year than the S&P 500 index.
Mutual fund organization Morningstar conducted research that indicated for the ten years ending December 31, 1998, the Wilshire 5000 index of most regularly traded U.S. stocks outperformed a collection of selected high-performing funds by an average of 7.2 percent.
Mutual fund investors who chase after managers who beat the market odds are likely to be disappointed. A top-performing manager one year is not likely to excel in the following year. In the absence of consistency, the excellent performance turned in for one period can be attributed to nothing more than sheer luck.
Investment newsletters reinforce the same message, even as they add their own layer of analytical complexity to that of the funds they select. A study by the Hulbert Financial Digest found that between August 1987 and the end of 1998, the average fund newsletter's model portfolio provided a return of 7.3 percent—only one half of the 14.1 percent return on the Wilshire 5000 index. Only six out of fifty-five advisers did better than the market. All claimed, at least implicitly, to provide market-beating returns with their complex multilayered approaches, but precious few delivered on that promise.
One reason it is extremely difficult for fund managers to beat the market is the drag on performance created by trading costs and the expenses of running a fund. Another reason is that it is virtually impossible to beat the market over time without taking on additional risk. This is why indexing (matching overall market performance) has grown so rapidly, and now accounts for an estimated 23 percent of institutional equity investing in the United States, even though it offers no protection against loss.
Investment n. the outlay of money usually for income or profit.
Merriam-Webster's Dictionary
What Happened to the Blue-Chip Stock Era?
To this day my father, 77, still works for the same company, lives in the same house, and has been married for almost fifty years. The son of a coal miner and a survivor of the Depression, Ed Winslow Sr., sticks to insured investments, absolutely refusing to get into stock market gambles. You can tell by his suit, his punctuality, and his unswerving level-headedness that he has a savings account, a life insurance policy, and a retirement plan. He hasn't changed his philosophy one iota—not even during the roaring bull market of the late 1990s.
Throughout his life, Dad invested one way—U.S. government-backed bonds, FDIC insured CDs, and bank accounts; and, as he got older and more adventurous, U.S. agency-backed mortgages. Of course, before investing in anything, his first priority was paying off the mortgage and being debt free.
So he's still at it, now working part-time as an accountant and making conservative investments. The global economy is changing like a kaleidoscope around him—the times have changed—but he sets his steady course, unaffected. * * *
How did we go from the secure, sleepy years of Eisenhower to today's dazzling casino of options, futures, and stock market gambles? Can we even refer to ourselves as "investors"?
Stocks and mutual funds don't match Webster's definition of investment. The description would have to be tweaked to include the disclaimer that your dollar does indeed offer the potential for profit—even great profit—but only at a high risk of loss. If there is a possibility of losing money, we are talking speculation, not investment.
There are no guarantees that stocks will offer profitable returns in the future—even in the long run. It only takes one gigantic loss to collapse a dream. Many ordinary Americans trusted Enron with their retirement dreams. Tragically, they ended up with a nightmare. * * *
When the biotech craze started in the late 1990s, everyone— investors and analysts alike—saw huge potential. Ordinary middle-class Americans, motivated by a fear of being left out and hoping to make some fast bucks, bought into the get-rich-quick promises of this industry. All told, billions of dollars were poured into brand-new companies with no more than a concept and a rough business plan. Most of these companies, giddy with newfound wealth, burned through the investors' money with outrageous salaries and outlandish benefits, and either went out of business or were picked up for pennies on the dollar by more savvy corporations.
Wall Street and its investors were not focused on current profits but on the potential for future profits. Many small pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies had little or no current sales but had a "promising" product in the pipeline that was expected to have a shot at commercial success.
Earnings and profitability might have been years away and for that matter might never occur. Nevertheless, corporations hired public relations firms to put a positive spin on whatever was happening, even when the financial statements indicated there was nothing to crow about. Promised day and night by news, television, the Internet, mail, and cold calls from strangers about the fabulous wealth to be gained in the stock market, who wouldn't be green with greed?
Well, there is no free lunch. If you are a conservative investor, you must avoid individual stocks and equity mutual funds. It's of the utmost importance to protect your principal while earning a return on your investment. If your principal is at risk, you are not an investor, you're a gambler.
How Long Is Long Enough?
It's interesting to review past market returns as a basis for estimating future returns. For the 101 years ending in 2000, the world stock markets were up an inflation-adjusted 5.2 percent annually with the U.S. figure at 6.7 percent. But who lives 101 years? And at what point during that 101 years do you cash out your portfolio to pay for college tuition, retirement shortfalls, prescriptions, or nursing home care?
The money manager's mantra, especially when the market drops, is "Hold on, don't panic; the good times are coming back, we're investing for the long term." What investor hasn't heard this? It's an article of faith that a representative sample of stocks, if held for the long run, can't fail to pay off. Under the buy-and-hold theory, investors owning stocks always expect to do better relative to other investments, versus—perish the thought—going stockless!
The number one rule in Michael Sivy's book, Rules of Investing, is that on average "you can't lose with blue-chip stocks if you plan to hold them for twenty years." Jane Bryant Quinn, in Making the Most of Your Money, says: "I like stocks if the holding period is 4 or 5 years. I love stocks for holding periods of 10 years or more." This common advice is spread throughout every form of media. The magazine Women in Business had an article about what to do when bad news strikes your stocks. According to the article, the first rule was not to panic. "You will most likely want to maintain your long-term, buy and hold outlook. In fact you may even want to buy more shares."
But are ten or even twenty years long enough? The answer may surprise you.

FLORENCE, S.C. -- If Donald Trump speaks for disenfranchised whites, Hillary Clinton speaks mostly to blacks who feel the same.
A speaking engagement in the Chattanooga area landed us within a few minutes of Chickamauga, the site of one of the Civil War's bloodiest battles, so I insisted we take a side trip to the historic battlefield. Since we lost the war, I have to celebrate our victorious battles.
In 1868, the auctioneer's voice often intoned "going once, going twice," and then "sold" as he banged down his hammer or gavel from the front steps of the old Robert Mills Courthouse. Thus, a Kershaw County tract of land, house, town lot or some other piece of real estate was sold at the hammer price by Sheriff E.E. Sill or Dept. U. S. Marshal Joseph M. Gayle.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know we've had and continue to have rainy weather. Including the epic weather event last October, we've received 36.5 inches rain according to our official rain gauge here at the Public Works Department. While these past months have made for a dreary winter, I'm certainly not going to complain because it's good for the trees ... kind of.
Am I the only one who gets a little annoyed when I hear the annual "Daytona 500 is the Super Bowl of NASCAR" analogy?

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Americans aren't the only people who are fascinated by South Carolina politics and the presidential primary process.
(Author's note: Some days, you just can't put a sentence together. That's when it pays to resurrect oldie but goodies. Enjoy!)
COLUMBIA, S.C. -- The popular wisdom opposites attract is true in both romance and politics.
A 16-pound chicken named Portly can make a grown woman smile, especially if the woman happens to be known as "The Dragon Lady." Earlier this month, I visited the home of Vickie (Karesh) Dawson, aka The Dragon Lady, just north of Camden in the country. I had heard lots of stories about Vickie, and quite frankly, her nickname of "The Dragon Lady" intimidated me a little. What I discovered is a lady with a vibrant passion for animals and life.
A much appreciated kindness was given to me a few months ago. Someone recognized my need for help and made a big effort to give it to me.
If Kathleen Parker and my columns today appear to echo each other somewhat, it is not intentional, although I'm happy to agree with her on the issue of President Barack Obama's naming of a replacement for late U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia.
WASHINGTON -- As Republican presidential candidates invoke Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia's legacy, all insisting his suddenly vacant seat shouldn't be filled until a new president is in place, it is helpful to ask: What would Scalia do?
Campbell Street's early history is significant. The original town lots of Camden were laid out on a grid sometime before 1774, when the earliest known plan was drawn. On the 1774 plan, Campbell Street south of York Street was one of the original streets. During the Revolutionary War, the British built the western defenses of Camden on Campbell Street. Two Revolutionary War redoubts were located on Campbell Street -- one in the middle of the street south of Bull Street and one on what is now residential land between King and Calhoun streets, just on the eastern edge of Campbell ...

Cute, quiet, nice view and friendly staff but lacking a few things. First the place should be cleaned much better and aired out in between guests. I would not have that patch of carpet under the bed as who brings their own vacuum for a week or so stay???? That is probably what is holding the weird smell. That or the A/C filter. NONE of the porch lights worked. Shower is barely big enough to fit in and the stove does not work very well. Nice full size fridge though. VERY small inside even the room that is the larger size. All in all an OK place. Just bring your own cleaning supplies as they are apartments and not a hotel or guest cabin.

Remember Verizon's so-called "supercookies," an element in part of its technology for hitting unwitting customers with targeted advertisements? The issue caused quite a stir around this time last year, eventually resulting in the government getting involved and Verizon backtracking on its policy. The move was too little, too late though, and now Verizon Wireless has been slapped with a $1.35 million fee courtesy of the Federal Communications Commission.
