Haitian beggars are becoming more creative these days, they want more money

Back in the days 500 Haitian Gourdes was worth 100 US dollars, How much is it worth today?

KREYOL: Nouvo mendiant Haiti yo, se sou moto you vini, byen abiye, ap vinn mande w: "Jere m yon galon gas non!" Ki koze sa?

A man walks into a beauty salon in Hinche Haiti, he tells the owner:

"Hello madame, I need a favor from you. I am on my way to Lascahobas and I am short on gas. Can you help me with a gallon of gas?"

Are you kidding me?

One gallon of gasoline in Haiti costs 185 gourdes... If his plan works, he will get HTG $200 gourdes out of the lady.

Do that 20 times in a day 5 days a week. This smart beggar is making 20,000 gourdes per week or 80,000 gourdes a month...

What do you think about that?
