Not effective ways to get yourself money:
- walk into the subway car and, right off the bat, sexually harass an attractive young woman
- then complain loudly that she hasn't smiled when she doesn't acknowledge your "how's it going, beautiful?"
- when others in the car glare at you, then complain that New Yorkers are humorless
- begin your pitch with, "good morning, ladies, gentlemen, humorless people..."
- interrupt your pitch about being a vietnam veteran by saying that you have 2 kids and that you're only here for their sake, and why doesn't everyone understand that you have a right to provide for them, too?
- loudly grumble and insult others when you walk around looking for change and people aren't giving it to you
