helping the poor in a better way than just giving them money.
its better to teach someone how to fish then to give them a fish. |

In other words, he means you should teach someone how to get money instead of just handing them it.
---OR in simpler terms... Teach someone to do things instead of doing it for them. |

Doesn't necessarily have to be a homeless person.
Could be someone on the street or one of your friends. |

yeah, but there are not many jobs you can tech someone to do, maybe your talking about more along the lines of reccomending them to your boss? then that would be a good idea

You would make your friend go to a charity in order to help them with their resume? C'mon cut them some slack, not like its going to kill you to help someone. |
