Free Money
For this assignment, I decided to go outside of my fraternity house. My house is located right on university avenue, so there is almost always foot traffic in front of the house. I plan to approach someone who is walking on the sidewalk, and simply offer them the dollar out of generosity. My plan for the conversation is to simply offer a dollar and react to their reaction. If the person is excited, easy to give away the dollar. If the person is hesitant, I might push a little bit and helps them understand that I am doing it purely to be nice. If the person outright refuses, I will simply walk away. I believe I should be able to give away at least 3 of the 5 dollar bills.
After conducting the experiment, I found that it went about how I had planned. I only had 1 person outright refuse me, but I did have 2 people hesitate before I told them it was free, and 2 people simply took the dollar. It was about as easy as I had expected, and it was obvious that people who appeared busy did not want a dollar, and people who were just walking did want a dollar.
