Train Stations

With COVID, the bank teller job scene has unfortunately quickly vaporized. As a result, I may have to pivot to begging at train stations (maybe I'll learn a skill like an instrument to increase $). Which train stations in which cities do you think would be best for this? Thanks!

Newark Penn. You'll fit right in with everybody else there.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

Shitposting about homeless people and begging just makes you look like a piece of shit.

I second this. This was a sore try at humor that came off as tone-deaf and heartless.

 

Please stop. There's nothing funny about people in such poverty that they have to beg or people that have gone through so much in life that they become homeless. Many homeless people are mentally ill (can do very little about their circumstances yet go through so much pain) and many were veterans (literally fought for our country, but have been neglected by the very same country).

You should be ashamed of yourself for 1. joking around about this and 2. having a dogshit sense of humor.

 

Valid point.  I will stand behind my statement that Newark Penn is the only place I know of worse than the Port Authority Bus Terminal though.
