Is this pathetic or am I just a heartless jerk?

Somebody I know is using the site gofundme.com to ask for money to help him “get on his feet” in a new apartment. He wants to raise $500 for “groceries etc.”
I was under the impression that this site was for people trying to raise money for a greater cause like cancer drives and the like – NOT for people looking for personal handouts.
Why doesn’t he just take out a loan or borrow money from friends and family?
I mean, maybe the guy should learn to manage his finances a little better. It’s not like he’s the victim of an illness, layoff or natural disaster. So am I a judgmental jerk or is this a little tacky/pathetic of him?
