I just mention FusionCash to the homeless/less fortunate children of God by "word of mouth" and the rest is up to them to get access to their own personal computer and free time to learn about surveys.

If they had "their own personal computer", they wouldn't be homeless now, would they?  Come on...this isn't rocket science.

Quite the narrow minded aren't you?  ;)

How is asking about the homeless having a personal computer narrow-minded?  Are you tacitly implying that the homeless could have smartphones and dataplans, (but not food or shelter)?

What?

There are a limited number of ways to access the internet and FusionCash: personal computer with internet access, personal smartphone with internet access, public computer, someone else's smartphone.  Your "narow-minded" comment directly implied that the homeless have some sort of internet access, (walking wifi hotspots?), other than personal computers with a unique IP address.

No I didn't have a pc while I was homeless, but after I found a humble abode with an isp I also bought my own laptop

If you found a "humble abode", then you weren't homeless, (at least temporarily).  If that "abode" had an ISP that wasn't shared, what exactly are you "recommending" to other homeless people?  That they find such "abodes" as you vaguely mentioned?

Hence, the question to which your reply was "wow".  The scenario your suggested has you mentioning FushionCash to homeless people, (who may look at you somewhat blankly unless you went on to explain that it's an online site with PTC, offers, etc.).  If the homeless have no internet access, (nor personal IP address, let alone a home address), how are they to take advantage of your 'xtian ministering'?

I'm not the one giving false hope to the homeless so, you tell us what you meant.

The request is irrational since you initially posted your 'recommendations' to the homeless.  That means you can either defend your position or, retreat while trying to get others to defend it for you.

lol  I think you mean his reply is a bit too "over your head" for your pleasure.  Did you just get out of your elementary school history class or something?

Apparently your question regarding the homeless having personal computers went zipping by him like Paul Revere as well.  Although any parallel between the British occupation and the revolutionary war are largely misplaced, (despite my vague reference to Revere).  The bottomline being that, if the homeless don't have access to the 'net via their own IP address, FC isn't going to be useful to them - and "recommending" it to homeless people who can't utilize it seems intentionally cruel from a xtian.

Homeless folks is always the underdog. Don't underestimate their survivabilities to improve their walks in life on earth. Even Art Linkletter was homeless  :angel11:

What's that got to do with your "recommending" their participation in an online activity when they don't have private internet access?

There's survival and then there's a meaningful life.  Keep on with your English studies, they will likely help in other aspects of your life here.

My pleasure to share this story too. Just am sad that theres alot of established cash earning members in here taking offense to my creating this thread?  :crybaby2: But thats ok LOL. Its just a thread.

I don't see any posts stating that anyone actually found it offensive that you created this thread;

However, I DID read a WHOLE BUNCH of posts from people pointing out that what you say in the post is stu....

RIDICULOUS. 

Although, it likely does indirectly offend...
                    
How come it won't play?
