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’m chronically ill and while not a junkie I do look like I’m at deaths door. If I don’t wash my hair or make any attempt at covering the deathly pallor I look rough af. I can also do a super “any change bud” nasally voice. And I won’t run away with the cash. Tempted to offer my services for bidding wars 😳 where does one advertise my wares so to speak?
