Donations at Christmas to local Thai Vendors - tonight I am broke, ya ran out of money giving it away!

in #bitcoin7 years ago (edited)

I kinda get a kick out of 'being harsh' with these blogs as the world can be harsh to so many people and the poor people of the world have gotten the short end of the stick for the last few hundred years. That is about to change with tipple entry accounting. It is their time a new renaissance - have you:

The man in picture above was working for hours caring while roasting this pig. A 'harsh' picture for vegetarians. He had big smiles for me as well.

I see once the pension plans of the western world are looted by the big banks their sideline money will be deployed into emerging markets. I see a super boom in Asia, equal to 4-8x as large as the industrial revolution of the west. But first the global debt needs to be out of default - hence the fleecing of western pensions coming to an auto-deposit near you or in the form of inflation.

The paradigm shift is coming down on you! Do you feel the pressure of inflation? The heavy fucken' weight of your financial responsibility? It fucking hurts. I have gotten many nice emails thanking me for financial advice. I am not a financial advisor but to be arrogant I can make you rich. Well not really rich but super fucken' rich! Just open that programmed closed mind and follow or pay attention or even (just think maybe do some study or research) respect 35 years experience of business awareness!

So I decided this Christmas to give some of my money away and was thinking of ways to donate direct to source and cut out administration costs of agencies like World Vision or UNICEF. Even though these agencies are experimenting with better ways of distributing funds especially in times of disaster relief. I decided I would ask small Thai vendors if I could take their picture for this blog. My plan was if they said yes, I would donate a month of wages to them as a Christmas bonus and if they asked for money I would just pay them that fee. The following are a few who said yes to having a picture taken, without asking for money and received a very big surprise in the form of a tip or donation from me:

This lady below was selling wrist bands etc. and asked for $1.50 for me to take her picture. I agreed and paid fee:

The following had great big smiles when I tipped them as they did not ask for anything in exchange for their picture to be taken by me:

Above I was really surprised at how clean and organized all these small Thai vendors were. Zoom in on picture especially if you are viewing this from your cell phone. My camera takes incredible quality shots.

LOOK HOW GOOD THAT CORN LOOKS:

Should you like the way these donations went out direct to source feel free to transfer any amount of steem to my account and I will convert to local currency and give out to more vendors at 100%.

Thanks again for the awesome chance to share in your holiday spirit!!!

A proof, that there is hope on eart. Thanks for sharing this. Hope you had a good christmas and wish you a good start in 2018!

This is an amazing post! I am so glad you are making this country your second home! You are very kind and extremely sharp, you can make people rich! Your donations to these hard working people will be remembered and cherished by them forever! There is such a big gap between the rich and poor here!
Luckily most poor people are nice people who quietly accept their fate.
You have given them hope and faith and great encouragement for their working ethics!
Thank you for being you!

The ghost of crypto and the ghost of christmas combined :D

The CryptoXmas -> Just great my man.

I think this is in the sense of the creator

Love your attitude man !! Thoroughly enjoyed the read and would love to have seen first hand the expressions on the vendors faces when receiving their gift.

Really, Paul, you out-do yourself with each new blog! I can't believe the vibrancy of Thailand! One of my mentors is ethnic Thai but he never made it that clear that Thailand had great people! The corn looks so good. You inspire me to be more generous and charitable as well! Best wishes to you!

Merry Christmas 2017!

I agree with your comment Friend

@greeman is just amazing.
While so many persons are chasing after money, he's selfless trying to impact on humanity and putting smiles on people's faces. That's just too good and commendable.

That's what Christmas is all about and I wish him a merry and joyous Christmas

I agree, that's the way to go

agree with you @livelifefullest

I'm taking notes! Love this idea!

I also think it's better to donate without 3rd agencies. To find by yourself and to donate.

Hello @greenman,

It is a really noble thing you are doing, donating to the poor people. wow!! But the tai people are really industrious people as i can see from the photo.

Thanks for sharing your wonderful time in thailand.
&

Merry Christmas to you too.

resteemed.

Really cool what you are doing, the pictures of the happy vendors are great, but the one who asked for the $1.50 fee is funny, did you tell her after about the bonus she missed out on? She probably would have tried to give the $1.50 back, hehehehe

No I did not tell her. I also don't speak Thai so not sure if she would know enough English to have that deep of conversation. But the folks in the picture with her waving the peace sign I did have a conversation with them about what she missed out on.

Woow greet photography...
Thanks for sharing your post....@greenman
