Under my personal sense of morality, no. I do not think it is my best interests to receive money I don't work for. I think it is too tempting to want that. I think it is contrary to my long term best interests. That's why I never gamble, never buy lottery tickets, etc. I just don't think it's good for me to get money that way. I suppose if I were to become disabled and unable to work, and had nothing to live on, I would accept charity. I don't know. But that would be a different situation. But as long as I'm capable of providing for myself, it is better for me that I do so, and only spend that money which I can by my own labors, which include the labor of investing, earn.
