- Where will you go? The local park
- What kind of people will you approach? anyone walking a dog or a parent with a child.
- What will you say to get the conversation started? Hey I think you dropped something !
- What is your plan for the conversation? I plan on showing them the dollar bill and then when they will most likely say, oh that is not mine I am going to say yea I know I just wanted to give you this, if they ask why I am going to say; Because I want to give back! live simply so others can simply live....
- Out of five attempts, how many dollar bills do you think you will be able to give away? I think I will be able to give away all five.
My video recorder will be here wednesday so I will be able to do more on wednesday and get some recording with another five people. As for this round all five went pretty smoothly. I had encountered all friendly people. After the conversation started and I said what I planned on saying they said thank you and that it made their day a lot better. I believe from what I did will bring those people to do the same to others. It is a never ending cycle if you do good things most of the time the people will do good back.
I really liked this assignment because it reminds me of a time I was at taco bell with my friends and I had to go to the bathroom and there was an envelope sitting there saying enjoy! So when I opened it, it had five dollars inside with a note saying, "I hope this can help you out as it did for me, god bless." Ever since that day I have always helped others that are in need.
Giving away the dollar was easy and I knew this before hand because I have done it hundreds of times. But it was a little different because this time it was not always to the less fortunate. My predictions were correct all five encounters where nice and friendly.
Hey Keith,
ReplyDeleteI think you picked a good location to give out your dollars. I would love to see videos of your conversation but I assume everything went well. I also enjoyed this assignment because it was fun giving out money and the reactions I got were very diverse. If you would like to see how I gave out my dollars please check out my blog http://peterphamuf.blogspot.com/2016/02/free-money.html .
Very interesting blog post! I really enjoyed reading and watching your videos! The peoples reactions in the video were great. You really seemed to make their day. You definitely accomplished your goals you set out for yourself in the beginning. Everyone seemed to be genuinely pleased with your generosity.
ReplyDeleteHey Keith!
ReplyDeleteI Enjoyed reading your post and finding out what happened after handing out dollars to total strangers however I wished there were videos for us to see and actually be there in the moment with you and the stranger you interacted with.
