a homeless man who happens to provide sound financial advice

"Hey man, don't look down; look up! That's where the money is!"

I would contend that the money is usually down, on the ground, when you run into it out on the street like that. But that's solid advice nonetheless. Thank you warrenBuffett hobo.

I'd say as long as you think it is safe to assume you have more money than the hobo - look down.

It could be the hobo is just trying to keep you from finding loose money laying on the ground. He's a crafty one, that hobo.

If it's one thing that keeps me coming back, It's a HOBO POST!

Two days working downtown, and not one hobo story. Should I be concerned?

I want to hug that damn hobo.

Actually, I want to hug YOU. Because I didn't need to read any further than your title to laugh out loud.

It's sound advice if you're standing underneath a money tree in autumn.

I'm with may-b on this one. It sounds like a clever ruse to keep you from scooping up the loose change.

That said, I've noticed a disturbing number of homeless folks that seem to be drawn to you of late. Think it has something to do with your new look?

Sarah: Hmm, it's hard to say. Sometimes I think they make a killing off guys like me.

Bubba: You do love the hobo posts; I respect that.

Alan: I haven't done any analysis on the effects of working the alcoholics' shift and hobo interaction.

djn: Thanks - for the laughter and hugs.

NYM: You and my dad, always with the money tree.

Joe: Some hoboes are incredibly crafty. Others are just really drunk. And the loss of the beard does cut my intimidation factor down a lot.

May-B: Whatever! Would you quit stalking me?

I can't. I set my stalker watch. And it goes so nicely with my stalker shoes and handbag. Sorry, better luck next time.
