A few years back this reporter lived as a bum for 1 year and made 36 grand while living on the streets (I think D.C.) and only begging. Guess he gm'd it really fast.
Anyway, I agree that begging should have more meaning. Sure it isn't the greatest skill nor should it be very rewarding but there should be a difference once it is gm'd.
I think it would be a nifty idea to add it so when people beg they have a chance to get a loaf of bread or chicken leg instead of money at lower levels of skill. Maybe make it depend on their trade, a tailor would give you a cloak to help you stay warm as an example.
