pay a local kid to wash my car, overtip for good service in a resteraunt, pay my maid over and beyond the going rate etc
this way I'm sending a little extra someone elses way - they may not be a starving ethiopian AIDS victum - but at least no do-gooder sexpat admin person is gonna waste the money on shite. adn that person can also have dignity of working (not charity etc)
enuff ppl do this - it will make a big difference.
having said that i DO give money and stuff to Fr Joe's group - cos they are serious about what they're doing. i've also worked with his AIDS & orphanage schools - they need help and you know every baht goes in the right direction (unlike some of the bigger NGO's)
