Beggar Joe Cumia has a business idea

I was chest-bumped, alroight!
I like how he busks for loose change on a ferry 7 days a week but still pretends he has "high society gigs" that he also plays

He's 100% wrong. If I saw that tip jar, my first and only thought would be "this guy is a pitiful, sad asshole, and tipping him would only serve to further enable him". After forty-plus years of guitar playing, Joe needs to rely on strangers throwing change into a jar to pay his way. He might as well just stand at a busy intersection with a cardboard sign.
It kind of makes me feel good that when I was a shitbag barman at 21 who made £5.25 an hour plus tips 3 nights a week, sold enough pot to smoke for free and had enough time to scrape a degree and get some pussy, I was vastly more productive and successful than stupid Joe at 65 or whatever. Ha ha. Nice bum life when you should be comfortably retired, idiot.
 
A man in his 60s did that.
Many amateur guitar hobbyists are emotionally stunted, deeply immature people, desperately trying to hold on to their glorious youth by wallowing in the music that was popular when they were young. Striking "rock star" poses, drawing titties, both perfect examples of what I mean. Most adults would be deeply embarrassed to share something like this with the world, but not Joe.

I know everyone gets lame when they get a certain age, but Boomers are a special breed of infuriating cringe just straight across the board.
He's even behind the subway hobos because even they have signs with their CashApp, Venmo, and PayPal info on it with QR codes and everything.

Even if he had a good night with tips, he'd barely cover the cost of the fucking guitar cables.
