I read about this story yesterday in the news, so I figured I would share it with you guys, maybe give everyone some inspiration and something to ponder about. It sure made me think. In fact it sorta made me feel sad too, as I've seen this person in person on the street.
Hope you guys enjoy it, as much as I did.
How $600K was raised on street corner:

You actually see him sometimes? I think that is cool. He's doing something that gives him his purpose and isn't in an institution, so I bet he's happy you see him too. :-)

Yeah I seen him in the past. He is always infront of a Holt Renfrew store in Yorkville area of Toronto. He sure picked a good spot.

That bloke is fantastic. Not only does he raise the cash, he doesn't spend it on himself! Totally selfless.

For some reason, it won't let me submit a comment from work, but here's what I tried to leave:
I dislike my job but it allows me to blog during the free times and I like the extra $35,000 a year with benefits right now. I'll leave as soon as I can make $25,000 or more a year blogging. I LOVE blogging and would do it even if I didn't make anything…the fact that it may free me from "real" work is just a huge bonus. :-)
