Not just income, but self-employment income. The fact is, you have to do something, usually on a recurring basis to "earn" it. People don't' just walk up to you out of the blue and say "heres a few bucks" and walk away. You provide them something in return first, in the way of entertainment as a street performer.
That would be in contract to a pan-handler to does ask for handouts for nothing in return.
