Yes...I was homeless for 6 months but had a truck. I lived basically in my truck and showered down at the beach and shaved at an Arco.

I could have made the choice to become an alcoholic or become a user like 90% of the shitbags that make that choice or even better, I could have become and act like a democrat and look to sponge from some government program but I didn't.

I took on three jobs from digging ditches in the day, waiting tables at night and cleaning toilets as a janitor during the graveyard shift. I eventually got back on my feet and the rest is history.

What is the point in all this?

No matter how bad things may look, you always have choices and those choices are a true representation of ones character.

I have no pity for the homeless with the exception of the individuals who have some sort of mental disease.

Be responsible for yourself, don't ever depend on anyone.
