I'm not sure I've seen such a simple poll already. 

Notice that to me begging or selling goods/services is the same as buying, but I'm pretty sure some people won't agree with that, so I made a distinct option.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Hence he chose the option "None.  I beg for bitcoins or I sell goods/services." abbreviated "none".

I don't think begging for bitcoins and selling goods/services should be in the same answer.
Begging isn't mutually beneficial, it's totally different thing from trading.

Yeah but the poll is "mining or buying?", not "how do you get your bitcoins?", so I put every other way to get bitcoins in only one category.  I could have written: 'Neither mining nor buying.  I get bitcoins in some other way.'
