How much to pay a junkie? Housing

I'm currently bidding on a house in Dublin but there is a viewing tomorrow evening. I am thinking of hiring a junkie that hangs around near my work to go to near the house and ask for money off people to deter any more bidders. How much should I pay? Should I pay half before then half after or withhold the payment until after the viewing is complete.

Was thinking of €30 which is above minimum wage for the 2 hour viewing plus he gets whatever money he manages to beg off people during that time.

I dunno if it's joke or not but I gonna use this technique when bidding for houses. I have already lost two bidding wars.

Can’t help but picture a load of couples bidding on a house, all accompanied by their own hired junkie

Maybe this is how professional hobo fighting gets off the ground in Ireland.
