Here's what a millionaire's placard might look like
Updated | By Udesha Moodley-Judhoo
A man's innovative approach to begging at the traffic light has people inspired.

It never ceases to amaze us how South Africans can find a silver lining around the darkest clouds.
Apart from their deep-rooted ability to walk by faith, South Africans have an innate sense of humour. If you aren't familiar with their sense of humour on social media, you can see it on placards at traffic lights where less fortunate people use their humour to their advantage.
It's not the first time we've seen a person begging at the traffic lights, but instead of a one-sided transaction or encounter, some beggars try to provide a service to motorists waiting at the traffic lights.
We once saw a man holding a placard that read: "Why lie? Need R20 for beer." This amused many people, who were happy to give him the money because he was being honest.
This time, it's a man who'd be the perfect recipient of our A Million & Change money. He's living his manifestation by standing at the traffic lights and entertaining the thought of owning a Porsche.
Check out the video below, which shows him earning a solid R20 for his efforts – courtesy of Instagram.

People responded with mixed views. While some have laughed at his creative antics, others firmly believe that he owns a Porsche.
Whether or not he does own a Porsche, we think his innovative approach to making money says a lot about his character.
Perhaps this could turn into a pop culture art form – traffic light entertainment, which could eventually be a tourist attraction.
