What is a heckler? Like the people who interrupt stand ups? I went on two cruises with my family when I was a kid. And I can assure you the only stand-up anyone experiences is on the ship in between ports.

I think they're referring to hawkers, or people on the streets harassing you to buy something. I don't know why everyone here is calling them hecklers and not confused by that.

And coming from a well off family, why is it wrong for me to buy stuff?

Not saying that is the argument you're making/defending. Just don't see a problem with helping people out.

I was just explaining a misunderstanding, that being heckler vs hawker... I think you've replied to the wrong comment?

I think I did too. Please accept my apologies!

It's not wrong, but a lot of people hate being harassed until they buy something.

No disagreement here.
