Last year I've been living under the bridge for 3 year - not even close to say it a house, far from city, eating whatever I found at edge of forest - mouse deer, kale, ferns, small fish, river snails, etc. Happen because got deceived from person that suppose to support me, losing my job - real good job. I also got scammed almost 250K and other sad story. Now I live in nice two-level house, better place, better city, better food, better laptop, better internet connection - have rid of all the difficulties and sad stories in the past, but we all know problem never stop coming.
What I'm doing to achieve that is keep positive, don't keep shitty friends, keep looking for chance, DO your idea, expand your knowledge, don't only think about your problem but please see solution for it. What I'm really do is doing the IM stuff with many efforts and time, with $50 laptop I bought by my saving as small online gambling agent, I work with many names like clickbank, crakrevenue, amazon, openload, juicyads, shopify, trafficgoldmine, propeller, adsense and many more, short story I earned what I need, I don't need to say how much I've earn from Internet. This only just for your motivation because I feel what it's like living under the bridge.
You half right about that hacker movie. but not all true, even it's true, you need right contact, skills and asset - but I prefer "plastic" movie because at the end they do real job. As a pizza guy, maybe you can do side job as gigolo, massagers, etc. Anyway you can't enjoy any job if there's a knive behind your back.
