To tell the truth, Chris was a respectable man in various ways, but he was also unreasonable with his actions. Chris McCandless has proven to be an honorable man for doing great things at a young age. He was unlike any other teenager in his generation considering that he would prefer to help those in need on the weekends. McCandless would talk to “... prostitutes and homeless people, buying them meals, earnestly suggesting ways they might improve their lives” (Krakauer 113). Not many minors would decide to spend their weekends like that especially due to their desire to spend time with their friends in public or at a party. Also, people seem to ignore prostitutes and homeless people as a result of them being outcasted in society for not being able to maintain a stable job. In addition to helping those in need, Chris committed a generous act at the end of his college experience.
