This really pisses me off. How did you guess ?


It's not "even" begging for money to get home because you blew it all on things you couldn't afford, or you got conned or robbed. No, it's an entitlement to travel on other peoples' dime. You might say that people are not obliged to give their hard-earned cash to young westerners so they can know the joys of Party International and you would be right. Pisses me off anyway, because it's a slap in the face for those who beg to eat and to survive. Work for travel is ok, I've done it, but that not what this is about.

'Beg-packers': White tourists who beg in southeast Asia
Locals have been shocked to see white tourists begging in the streets of Malaysia, Hong Kong, Thailand and Singapore to raise money for their travels. While some just see it as bizarre, others are outraged by it, calling it an "orientalist fantasy".

“Beg-packers” is the word sometimes used to describe young Western tourists who play music or sell knick-knacks in the streets of southeast Asia to pay for their trips or to purchase their ticket back home.
Backpackers are often viewed as the antithesis of organised trips and mass tourism. But even the romantic image of adventurers on the hunt for new horizons has transformed in recent years. Now, many see backpackers as Westerners who want to travel on the cheap — to the point of exploiting the locals...

I've seen a rise of entitled behaviour rising throughout the West, and it's the principle reason I don't have a business in the West anymore.

This is what happens when you tell your children they are special.

I think it would be a good idea to introduce the 1824 Vagrancy Act here!

"The Vagrancy Act 1824 (5 Geo. 4. c. 83) is an Act of Parliament of the United Kingdom that makes it an offence to sleep rough or beg. Anyone in England and Wales found to be homeless or to be trying to cadge subsistence money can be arrested."

I'll say it again. Delusional. It's also what happens when you suckle at the tit of a smart phone twittering your twit butt off alla time from day one you can hold one. They live in their own little world, which would be no problem if they would STAY THERE and not mix in the REAL world.

I believe they could make a good contribution to the alligator farm.

Or, sell a kidney.

Shameful vitriol from old or older men who were never young. I wouldn't want them as friends but what the hell at least they have a bit of adventure in their souls.

These people have no respect for themselves why should they deserve it from us older men? or anyone that works for their money regardless of age. This crowd fund craze has got out of hand imo, how could you take that girl in the last pic seriously with an expensive camera sitting in front of her, begging across the world does not seem to adventurous to me when your one phone call away to get money.

I don't take them seriously. And maybe her parents or other familial dial a prayer cash cows take her even less seriously. You and others take her seriously by attacking her. My life is full; I've no need to keep score.
