Invisible Beggar

Posted by Joanna Ong in Everything Else on September 25, 2011 at 5:35 pm

Serbian Nemanja Petrovic has promoted himself from panhandler to street performer. Tired of being ignored, he’s figured out a successful system of begging from just one inspired moment of frustration.

As an act of protest the 42-year-old tossed his cap and shoes down on the street with a hand-written sign saying ‘Invisible Beggar’ while he busied himself elsewhere and let off some steam.

Once he had calmed down the cheeky beggar went back to his gear and discovered he had got far more than he had bargained for: ‘When I returned I was astonished to find a crowd and my cap was full of money,’ he explained.

‘Now I just put down the sign, a pair of shoes as a prop and wait for the donations to roll in while I have a coffee over the road,’ he added.

Gimme is a robot/sculpture designed by Chris Eckert that follows people around, asking for money:

My newest art machine, Gimme is an automated panhandler that follows a viewer (or multiple viewers) around the room while relentlessly requesting donations.

Panhandling Cat

Sometimes cats are hard up for cash, too!

This cat begging money was spotted in one of the cities of Belarus. He stays on one place with a note that reads “need money for meat and fish, bless you”. He doesn’t leave his place and protects the money just with his sight. His owner was found nearby. It was an old lady. She told the story that she had rescued the cat from the slaughters, but at that time she had already owned some pets and couldn’t feed them all, so he decided to let the pets earn the money for themselves.
