Or not? -- Rishon Letzion opines this applies only yo someone we know very well has the money, there's no chance he is just disguising his actual poverty. -- What if a person's poor but capable of working? Should we ignore him? -- The Meharsham, the Netziv machloket over this. -- The Ahavat Tzedaka and Bava Metzia’s line that a rich person is in a way relevant to tzedaka because he could be mafkir his money and get peah. -- Introduction to the statements in the gemara about embarassing someone in public and giving tzedaka in public.
