Man Successfully Stops Robbery After Convincing Thieves He’s Broke

Not having enough money to be robbed is a classic win-lose situation.

Getting robbed is, to put it in the simplest terms, shitty. Even if you don’t have much to offer, thieves will rid you of everything you’ve got, stripping you for parts like an unlocked Kia in an unmonitored parking lot.

That said, in general, it’s usually safest just to give thieves what they want, as none of your possessions are worth your life. But if you can’t handle being jumped at the present moment, you might want to try this guy’s method: convincing your assailants that you’ve got no money and no prospects to make money in the future.
