Outside Gourmet Glatt in Cedarhurst, there is an elderly man who is always sitting outside collecting money. Whenever someone gives him money, he showers them wth brachos. I believe he is a really holy man and I always give him a few dollars because I love getting brachos from him.
So is it still considered ‘mehudar’ tzedaka if I give him money just because I want his brachos? Because I kind of have an ulterior motive.
