Some people are just nice! For the past thirty years, every Christmas season, a lawyer has been handing $10 bills to thousands of people on skid row in Los Angeles. The lawyer, now sixty-nine years old and retired, has remained anonymous. He estimates that he has given away $20,000 of his own money every year. He says he does it because he is so moved by the appreciation and gratitude shown by homeless people when they receive his gift. Destitute people line up for hours ahead of time to meet the generous man and receive his donation. People like this man make the world a nicer place in which to live. Knowing that good people are taking care of the less fortunate . . . it's a good thing!
