| Jose and Carlos are panhandling at the freeway offramp. Jose drives a Mercedes, lives in a mortgage free house and has a lot of money to spend. Carlos only brings in 2 to 3 dollars a day. Carlos asks Jose how he can bring home a suitcase full of $10 bills every day.
Jose says, "Look at your sign." It reads: "I have no work, a wife & 6 kids to support!"
Carlos looks at Jose's sign. It reads: "I only need another $10.00 to move back to Mexico."
