I was out walking and decided to talk with a homeless man this morning and asked him how he ended up this way.


He said, "Up until last week, I still had it all. I had plenty to eat, my clothes were washed and pressed.
I had a roof over my head, I had HDTV and Internet, and I went to the gym, the pool, and the library.


"I was working on my MBA on-line. I had no bills and no debt. I even had full medical coverage.
I felt sorry for him, so I asked, "What happened? Drugs? Alcohol? Divorce?

"Oh no, nothing like that," he said. "No, no .... I was granted parole."

A successful business man was leaving for work when a homeless man begged him for money.

The business man agreed to give the beggar $20 if he answered 2 questions. The man agreed.

“First, will you spend this money on alcohol?.” the business man asked.

The homeless man respond, “why no I quit drinking 20 years ago.”

“Great,” responded the generous man. “Will you spend the $20 on golf” he followed up with.

The homeless eager responded, “I quite golf about the same time, almost 20 years ago.

The business man, quickly replied. “I will give you $40 if you come home to my wife and show her what happens to a man when he quits drinking and golf.”
