In my early 20's i lost my job,my license, my car and my apartment within 3 weeks.

Homeless, i found an old friend living with his dad who lived near the bus stop in a falling down old house, got a job part time at a grocery store and rode the bust to work and paid the dudes dad $25 a week to sleep on his couch.

shyt was fukking awful and humiliating as fukk. I walked 4 miles to that grocery store on more than one occasion when i didnt have the bus fare.

Damn that's tough breh..

I got a big fam, so If I ever got to that point, I'd know I have a place to stay and eat..Them Zoes look out.

You sir have thought this out and I respect that.

I've always questioned why there are homeless people living in the Northern states. Too damn cold most of the year. Give me California or Arizona. If I couldn't use a shower at a gym or the YMCA I'd look for showers near the beach. The ones where people get all the sand off themselves.

As far as living. If this is possible and I'm not sure it is? I'd look for an old school style storage unit. One of those ones where they don't keep track of when you come in and come out. Make yourself a home there. Monthly rent on one of those can't be too much. Other option like said above would be to find a van or a truck with a canopy and live in it.

If you can get a job and that's a big if. A lot of homeless people have records and are on all sorts of drugs. Good luck getting a job. If you aren't a drug addict get a job at Taco Bell or Little Ceasars. Or you could try to get a job mowing people's yards. Go door to door in decent neighborhoods not super nice as they already have someone doing their yards. Ask to mow their yard for $5-15.

I've also seen a guy go to new sub divisions knocking on doors and installing doorpeep holes for $15. He just uses a drill and installs the peephole in about 5 minutes of work.

If all else fails just do drugs.


:myman: thanks for puttin me onto my new hustle when im on vacation in FLA

:heh: that story

yeah if your homeless with a job, thats different. hotel for a lil while would be an option

When I said homeless with nothing going for yourself, I meant like bum level. no job, family disowned you, no friends. just you, your shabby clothes and a shopping kart, sitting on the floor.

I dunno how they stay like that all those years man. I would be pannicking like a MF tryna change my situation. sleeping outside, especially during winter is fukkin un-real.

My cuz aint had no job for 8 months, and has a "sex" charge.. Aint no one hiring his :sitdown: ass

Which is why his B/M pays him to stay in the motel. She dont even live with him she just leaves her kids there and be calling me like :scusthov: "I hate your cuz"

I got too big of a safety net at the moment to be legitimately homeless...that's one of the advantages of having good family/friends

Damn that's tough breh..

I got a big fam, so If I ever got to that point, I'd know I have a place to stay and eat..Them Zoes look out.

Yeah Imean had plenty of friends all over and my mom was still close by, but i needed to be close to public transpkrtation because i wasnt living jn some big city annd that dude lived the closest.

Pride is a muthafukker so I just seallowed mine and justkept mh head down. After 3 months the grocery store offered me 2 weekend overnight shifts a week at time and a half so I jumped at it. 3 weeks in i had enough money to pay to get my license back. About a month later i had enough to buy a $300 shyt box off a co worker. Once i had that i was able to get a second job at a restaraunt hosting and bussing tables. Made enough cash there to buy some nee clothes...applied at Circuit City got hired to sell audio video stuff. 6 months in i was making more than i ever had before. Got my own place again and and used that expirience to get hired at PCConnection working inside sales.


Have never looked back. A little adversity is a good thing.
