You can never get through any city in SA without encountering beggars at traffic lights. They wander the streets, asking for money, others frail or freezing as they try to keep warm in the winter months. We are starting to also see more women and children as well. Today on The Talking Point we ask, has begging become a lucrative business?

GUEST: Siphiwe Mngomezulu - Author and a founder/director of the 80-D Albert Street Foundation which deals with Youth development in education.
