Good luck to you bro. I recommend focusing purely on freelancing on upwork and fivver to get some quick cash. uploading videos and putting affiliate links is more long term and can take a while so it will be very hard especially with what the situation you're in

Hi guys,
Sorry I have not been around for a little bit, things have been difficult lately. I have been struggling to get a consistant internet connection, plus from day to day I am struggling to eat regularly, there is charities about that supply food but can be difficult been in there, as the vibe is horrible, there is people in there with serious drug and alcohol problems, like people who have been homeless for at least 10 years with serious alcohol problems.
I am remaining positive though and want to thank everyone for the motivational comments and hopefully I will get there but it's super hard when your at rock bottom.
Here is an update on what I have done recently.
- I have managed to get an aws vps from amaon.
- On the vps I have managed to install FF + Imacros - ie youtube commenter macro I have created.
- The imacros is working fine. However, when I disconnect from my computer, the vps doesn't seem to keep running, so not sure why that is for ?
- I have another 100 comments to do - however, this time it will be directed at the english market.
Some good news, when I checked my account yesterday, I now have $53 in credit
All the sign ups where spanish, however, the rate is lower than the uk and usa but none the less, it's $53, however, I wish it was 10 times the amount, as this would seriously help me get off the street and into accomodation.
I feel i have 2 battles on my hand at the moment, the one to survive and eat on a daily basis and the other to try get an internet connection, so that I can do my work.
-----------------------
I am going to take some of the advise shared here and start some freelance accounts, however, I have uploaded some gigs already, however, I am struggling to get my first sale.
--------------------------
Sorry I don't have a lot to update, that is all I have been able to do since the last time I updated here. Which is a little dissapointing.
I don't know if anybody can help with this but I managed to get a client for 200 euros, I had finished the SEO Work, I done everything promised to the client, she sent me 200 euros through paypal, I was so happy, however, what I didn't realise is since that my account was brand new and under 60 days old, paypal actually put a hold on the money...
What i decided to do, was refund the client and ask if they can bank transfer, the client is now been an asshole and is telling me she wont bank transfer, as she said she never agreed to it. So wtf!
She has no idea on my situation, however, she has totally fucked me up.. I can't call her, as i don't have the money to pay for a phone call...she is been difficult on purpose. She knows now, she will get away with this.. but I am not gonna lie, it really has annoyed me! It's not fair.

So have you refunded her the money already, or just told her you will? If you haven't, hold off on doing so. There are solutions to the whole paypal situation.. but to have done all that work for nothing, would really be bad.Hi guys,

Just to confirm, I have already refunded the money!
She was been really nice before, however, once I had refunded her, she is now been a total bitch! saying she wont bank transfer the money because that was not agreed. The funny thing is, through email, I kept mentioning about refunding her, she wouldn't directly answer the question but seem to answer every other question.
Now I am getting the feeling I have been screwed over.
This individual has over 28k followers on instagram, which is where she is active most.
What can I do about this ?

If you need some assistance with covering the domain/hosting expenses let me know and I'll cover those costs for you. I'll also offer you some free content to get you started.
Being in your situation isn't easy but the fact that you're striving to better the circumstances prompted me to want to help you.

You are very kind to make this offer and it would help me a lot. If this offer is still open, I would like to accept it

Absolutely, as promised, I'll assist you in covering the expenses for the domain registration and hosting. I'll be quite busy working on content between now and Tuesday so let's plan on touching base Wednesday. I'll purchase the domain of your choice and will even set up WP for you.
I'll also include some free content to help get your site rolling.

If she wants to do paypal again, she can send the money to my paypal as friend and family and I can either wire it to you or send it via Western Union. Also, I have an old fiverr account with great rating which you can use for the time being, as it will get sales more easily.
Not sure if you can send PMs, so I'll PM you in case you want to respond.

Ugh, that's such a sticky situation. So is she not willing to send you the money through any other means.. or does she just not want to send it via bank wire? Also, is she willing to resend the paypal payment? If that's the only method she is willing to send, then tell her to just resend it. Also, how much is the payment for.. not asking about the exact amount, but in what range.. if she's willing to resend it, I might be able to help you with receiving it in a different form. I msgd you regarding something else, please reply to that msg, as well as the answer to the questions I asked above in the pm.

Good luck mate.
Can she western union the money? You could start an harrassment campaign targeting her Instagram comment section. Make a landing page explaining everything that happened, including screenshots of your email exchange. Bombard her comments on every picture with a link to your landing page. Email her explaining how you will make sure the world know that she took advantage of a bad situation. Best of luck op.

Hey man just saw your thread, nice idea but remember not to lie to yourself and center everything around your situation, it helps with breaking free of getting the homeless out of you, if you know what I mean. You do after all have a personality and you're not "just a hobo" (your username), you have hobbies things you like to do with your free time subjects and topics you're knowledgeable on and about, a philosophy, world view, opinions, favorite TV shows movies actors music singers bands and sub cultures, pornstars and categories, experiences, a sense of humor, edgy jokes and circlejerks; you're you, dude, whatever your name is (don't tell us lol).
Anyways, I was just thinking, why don't you make a blog and (if you can), a youtube channel on homelessness, I've seen a few out there with some ranging from thousands to tens of thousands of views, and some much popular, and I was thinking since you have unlimited time on your hands and access to the internet, watch some tutorials on HTML and wordpress web development and I'm sure you can make one for pennies (since all you need is literally just the domain), and if not you can still just stick with the free domain, and talk about your journey from home to homelessness and keep a focus on advise and tips that you've learned so far, and maybe you could even research homelessness and expand your knowledge and even learn some tips and tricks that could help you out out there and share it with everyone else.
I know generally speaking a significant portion of the homeless population isn't actually broke, and usually has money to spend on food and things like that, and some even have jobs, they just can't afford living expenses (at least in the U.S, if that's where you are) so maybe even try and find some affiliate links for products that might be helpful for living out there, camping utensils, portable heaters, mobile devices, portable gas stoves, portable mp3 / mp4 players, stuff like that, just anything you think you would be able to use (if you can find it) for store or carrier company pickup, crack a few jokes maybe?
Worst case scenario is you get a creative outlet to express yourself and have a few other real human beings absorb your experience (thanks to the power of the internet) gain experience and learn.
Also while you're at it, maybe take this time to learn a new skill, easy or hard, and study whatever you've ever wanted to learn more about, just because you can (if you can).
edit: oh and uhm, I recommend getting a thermal tent and a huge thermal sleeping bag, portable heater and gas burner stove if you can, and if you don't have the money work on getting a source of hygiene (gym showers, public shelters, ask barbers for free stuff, literally just ask people in the street if you could take a shower) so you can get a job, and go for every and any job you can even think of no matter how slave-y it is because you need a source of income to buy things like tents heaters and personal hygiene products and gym memberships for showers
