    Seeing as there's a recession and everyones broke ass and I won some money on poker recently, I'm offering one hundred euro to the most amusing begging story. I may base it on thanks revieved by the post or just decide myself.

    Deadline this Sunday at midnight. Decision and payment made Monday morning via paypal.

    Good luck.

    I live in Pakistan and my village/family/livelihood was washed away by a flood.

    It was hilarious. I suppose you had to be there.

    Do I win?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,530 ✭✭✭TheInquisitor


    I want the money, not because i need it(I Don't), I just want to add it to my cash mountain. I have E99,999,900 at the moment and think about it you could be part of history when i have my E100 million bed of cash

    I was being mugged last week and I asked nicely the guy to please not rob me as I am poor and don't have any spare cash but he just yanked my bag out of my hand and my glasses smashed on the ground and the bus driver wouldn't believe me and let me on the bus home so I had to walk and it rained and my favourite Chinese Takeway closed down.

    It'd be more fun to post a picture of you burning it after all the begging stories..

    3euro separate me from life and death.

    Your 100e would be used in a good investment.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,748 ✭✭✭Dermighty


    I live in Cork (city centre) in a small gated housing block (think apartment block but houses instead).

    I was walking in one day, having gone to the bank or town or whatever and my neighbour (knacker) proceeded to walk up to me and ask me if I had any spare change. Normally I wouldn't think twice about it but I though it was pretty funny seeing as we lived in the same place and most likely paid the same rent (houses are next door to eachother).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 486 ✭✭mooman


    I couldn't afford a camera to take a picture of me and my poor dog. I can't feed him and now he doesn't move anymore so I have to drag him everywhere. Please Mister help me and my only friend in the whole world:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 416 ✭✭Hamiltonion


    I owe the gf 300, the bank 500 (due December), college reg 1580 and OD 200.

    No work whatsoever to be found, E100 would really really help!

    we as a family are soooo poor we cant afford basic things like laxatives. I just put the kids on their potties & tell them ghost stories. In the cold weather we cant afford heating so I give everyone mints & we breathe on each other


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,344 ✭✭✭Thoie


    I don't even have a dog :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,778 ✭✭✭Pauleta


    Can i have your €100 to put on red. If i win i will offer my €100 winnings to another person to put it on their choice of Roulette colour or segment.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,324 ✭✭✭RGDATA!


    one i always remember was a mate who's dad won 20 quid on a spot the ball competition in the sunday press in the 80's. he got three begging letters.

    a while back someone anonymous won around 100k in the lotto where i live. the morning the news broke locally a mate put out the "hilarious" false rumour that the winner was another mate of ours.

    within three days that guy had been approached, in person, by someone from a local charity wondering if he'd like to donate some of his winnings.

    Assuming you mean the post (within this thread) with the most thanks, what will you do if your own opening post receives the most thanks...?

    Or would that count as abusing the process...?

    :D

    I'll give the princely sum of €1 to the first 98 people who help me win the €100 by thanking this post. I get €2 for all my hard work, you lot get enough for the euro saver menu in McDonalds, and the OP gets to feel generous. Everyone wins.
