What will a homeless man do with $100? Filmmaker follows beggar into a liquor store after giving him cash but is left shocked to find the man does the very opposite of what you'd expect
A California man Josh Paler Lin who set out to see what a homeless person would do with $100 and was pleasantly surprised, when after handing a street beggar known as Thomas $100, then secretly following him with a camera to see what he does.
Thomas walks straight into a nearby Liquor Mart and actually went in to buy food, and then goes straight to a park where many other homeless people gather to give them what he had bought with the money. Watch the video inside...
Thomas told Paler Lin he quit his job to look after his parents, but after both of them died, he couldn't afford to pay for their condo and found himself on the street.
Paler Lin also set a fundraising page on Indiegogo for Thomas, hoping to raise $10,000 for him. It has already received over $35,000 in donations.
Never judge a book by its cover! Happy holiday season and try to put a smile on someone's face this festive period.
