Make Up To $50,000 Per Year – Begging

This is just weird. It’s the story of a Sydney Australia man who makes up to $50,000 per year begging.

It’s really unbelievable and makes me question giving anything to anyone these days, even though I’m pretty much a sucker.

But at least you know you can always fall back on this when the internet get rich quick schemes go belly up!

THE hours are long and the work monotonous, but begging pays well for at least one of Sydney’s homeless men who earns up to $50,000 a year from good samaritans.

Ken Johnson, 52, makes his living on busy George and Market St, outside the Myer store in Sydney’s CBD, where he sits for up to 16 hours daily, seven days a week.

On a good day, he said, he takes in $400 from generous passers-by.

On slower days, he still picks up amounts between $75 and $150.

“I’d be really disappointed if I did a long Friday and I only had $250,” said Mr Johnson, who has been living on the streets “since the late ’90s”.

“I knock off when I feel like it, or if I’ve done brilliantly. But on those good days, you might be on such a high that you go for a few more hours and get a bit more money.”
