With the way the global economy is making things difficult for the masses, are you the type who still gives out to the people happily? Do you find giving out to people something that you must always do just to have a fulfilled life on earth?

Honestly i have my moments. There are times where i actually give cheerfully even when I don't have enough, and there are times i complain before helping out, then i have also had times i avoid giving especially when I don't have to give at all.

Giving is very good but it’s not easy with this harsh economy. When you give, you need to give cheerfully, not grudgingly, that's what the bible says. Even small amounts can help someone.

I’m not usually. Well, I believe my 6 year old son needs money and I’m cheerful giving it to him - but others, frankly, NO. They are just a bunch of beggars - and they are exploiting hospitality. They need to work - but I don’t have the heart to tell them to buzz off. 😡

I used to be a cheerful giver but after it was very obvious to me that I never get the same treatment from friends, I decide to pull back. I've helped friends financially to set up their businesses but to sacrifice for me is very difficult for them.

I love giving when I am in the position to do so. But I don’t do it in a way that is going to affect me financially. Also, the moment I see that someone is feeling entitled I withdraw my help.
