Can't argue with that. Its easy to do with little information. Even though i think the kid might be a slacker, I wish him well.
If you didn't learn anything in school, and had sex with as many boys as possible. And did not find one that will marry you. Your first step is dancing naked at a truckers bars. Next is being a whore. A lot of women go that way. Do you want to? Get an education. What will you do after your beauty fades? Don't be stupid! What do you think you will be worth after a SHTF situation?
I have little doubt the OP was a troll. Normally I don’t believe in bashing or being harsh to new posters but this guy got what he deserves…. Any able bodied young man without a job or place to call home doesn't deserve much respect
This was a really stupid statement. There are many reasons that can cause someone to become homeless. This goes back to my previouse statement "people jumped to conclusions".
Some of you must of had a pretty stable life. It's easy to be judgemental when you've never experienced something like homelessness. There are alot of people who became homeless, and are going to, as a result of the covid lockdowns. It's not like there are tons of jobs that pay a living wage out there, and living within your means when you make less than $20/hr means living in a shitbox apt, or renting a room. Rent is insane, utilities are insane, the cost of transportation is insane. Then add food and other necessary hygiene; god forbid you need medical care.
When I was homeless, I NEVER had a drink of alcohol or did any drugs. I looked for work every day, and did EVERYTHING that was offered. I saved every penny and ate rice with stolen mustard packets for months, until I could get a $195/mo studio. You need decent clothes to work; those cost money. You need a daily shower; those cost money. You need a phone; those cost money. It's not as easy as "go get a job, you lazy POS!"
I expected more sound advice from this crew. I hope the OP can make something work, because right now they have a lifeline that helps if they play their cards right. I don;t think the OP is the typical "gimme gimme" homeless, break into your car, steal from the Sav On, poop on your sidewalk, leave a needle in your yard homeless.

Bullshyt HB. There are always jobs available for anyone who wants to work, always. Theres over 9.2 million unfilled jobs in the US right now. My guess is that number is actually much higher.
I imagine that most of us here have experienced hard times in our lives too. When I started out in life I was making $1.25 an hour doing ranch work. I never had to beg or steal in order to get by. Early in my career I went through many layoffs and real recessions. Big deal, I'd just go out and get another job until I was called back. When I was 19 I bought my first house while I was making $5.36 an hour. Even in my town of 500 people, both mills are hiring at a starting wage of $18.50 an hour. Almost every other business around this area, and country is hiring too. Only a dimwit or loser would stay at the starting wage for very long.

Not everyone will settle and be a marine. If your smart you will join the Army where its not just a job, its an adventure.
wait, I didn’t serve (and not trying to poke a grump bear), but isn’t that the navy? I thought the Army was where you can be all you be? He he
But why settle for just an adventure when you can be the Best AND have the adventure? Semper Fi!
But, but if the Marines are the best then why don't they have their own branch, lol
True, army guys don't know how to swim too well.

Most people that come on are at least preppers.
That guy was a non prepper and homeless. He wasn't starting at ground zero and learning how to prep, he was starting in a hole way below ground zero.
Non prepper, non worker, homeless.
He was asking where the land of milk and honey was if he were to leave California.
I don't believe I was mean to him. Are you calling out individuals?

Nope, but maybe I should have when I first started commenting on this thread. My comment about your post was just a generalized comment.
