The guy(usually it’s a guy) “playing” the violin outside of Target or similar stores. It’s all over,not just where I live,either.It’s a coordinated thing.
There’s a formula with a sign that says 3 kids/need money for rent/diapers and they have both Venmo and CashApp accounts.Anyone who does that(along with giving them cash out of hand) is STUPID with a capital S. See also:they only know a couple of songs(the variations on this are a guy who plays a keyboard-badly- and a guy who plays the accordion and only knows a couple of times.It’s a little suss that they can’t afford to pay rent but yet they can afford an amp, a musical instrument, and an iPhone .
If you can afford all of those things,you are NOT broke.Unpopular opinion?Probably.Imma say it anyways.
Sometimes the whole family is there-and they leave in a nice, new car.I have heard of them leaving in Porsches.Yes, really.
