Damn just heard a dude ask people if they have five bucks or any spare change. I believe in behavioural economics that's called anchoring.
Aussie haka: "No cash"
Once a homeless beggar told me “there’s an ATM right there you selfish cunt!”
Shocking but also that's not gonna fly for long with the number of atms dwindling.
The guy who was asked padded his jacket and threw his hands up and the dude gave him a dirty look and mumbled 'jeez'. Sigh.
