Why, because he got the money from his wife for his birthday and he thought there were other people that needed the money more than he did. This guy is a cool dude in my book.
It's obvious that $5 is not going to change someones life, however in the days of greed, corruption, anger, and theft taking a couple of hundred dollars standing on the street corner with a sign that read "I have a job.

Its reported that a lot of motorist asked Bill, "what do I have to do?" To which Bill would reply, "take it out of my hand".
I'm not sure about you but an extra $5 in the day is a blessing and you never know, someone could have driven by that was $5 short on their light bill and now they got it by running into Bill Blackley.
At the end of the day Bill handed out about $600. That's paying it forward.
