Going Homeless.

[SwiffJustus]

No disrespect intended OP
Having been in your shoes I kinda know a thing or 2 about homelessness, that having been said, this thread kinda takes on more of a feel and vibe of a sociological experiment rather than that of a full out "I AM FUCKING HOMELESS" Let me get my shit together! sense of urgency. Kinda get the sense if things get to to tuff there's a life preserver(Family,Friend etc).. somewhere waiting for you...At least I hope this is the case because FaReal Homelessness is no joke!

Wish you well Brother..GODSPEED!!

I was homeless once and had to sleep in my car. I suggest you use your time wisely, I started a blog and even almost as far as writing a book on it. The blog was a journal of life on the street. It fascinated people because they have never been put in that situation. It tells us a lot about ourselves and people are interested in that, hardships. Keep a strong mind and use it wisely, you'll overcome it and it will change the way you see the world

Please send us link to the blog, would love to read it, did you make money from blog?

Just get back on high school man, stop listening to all the people here suggesting otherwise. For fuck sake, these are going to be the best years of your life, don't ruin them by sleeping in your car and dreaming to become Bill Gates. You will have PLENTY of time later to work on your businesses. And you will regret this decision no matter if you become a billionaire or not - you are now thinking with your hormones, not logically with your brain.

Can not, when I left high school I was 16.
By state I signed a contracted with the state, by state terms.
The contract said I am not able to go to any school, or any college in till im 19.

That sucks, what kind of stupid law is that? I had a few friends that dropped out of high school (back when I also was on high school) and they could return and continue at any time, the very next year if they wanted. Is that specific state-wide or country-wide?

No money at all. I wasnt even into internet marketing at all. I was homeless for 2 years! Domain and blog are gone. This was 6 years ago. Worse tgat I had a small daughter at the time. But i got out because of will power. Homeless people are very territorial. Almost like gangs in a sense. They stab each other in the back. This lady was living in a small storage unit and always had pills. People always tried to steal her stash who she thought were friends. Advise, keep to your self. I got out after a high school friend noticed me. Let me crash at his pad, cleaned up because job interviews are tough when you smell. Showers in the park batgroom and hoping someone doesnt walk in on you. We are all lucky, especially in the darkest hour of your life- a spark always arises. Just need to recoginize it. People seem so distant, your literally starving and asking for change people dont give a fuck at all. Get so hungry I ate pizza from a trash can and a few hours later you throw up rotten dry heaves of dough, it seems to literally steal your breath.

I declined all their investments, because I'm not the type of person to feed off other people, and feed off other individuals..
I do everything by myself. Honest to god, NO help, no parents, none of that.

You're mistaking pride for independence, and it's a stupid move in my opinion.

You're underage, meaning your parents are still responsible for you, as a minor. There's no weakness in using that to your advantage until you're in a more stable position financially.

You seem to be out on a mission to prove everyone wrong because they doubted you, but you're just digging a hole for yourself. There's a difference between burning a bridge and literally having no one to turn to.

Swallow your pride while you still have that opportunity.

Lol they even Banned me permanently off school property.
But while everyone was working towards a diploma, and learning the same experience and the same educational system we had for years.

I decided to drop out, because I wanted to go out and learn business on my own.
Connect, study, and grow.

I was expanding my knowledge.
When I dropped out I bought myself Time.
I no longer had to worry about extra shit, I was left with a lot of time on my hands.
I was able to study and work on projects on my own, at my own time.

and last but not least I was formless, and flexible.
Like water.

I was able to balance things, got a job, worked on my own business, and repeat.
I was able to change things and move things around.
My mind works differently. I work against time.

I want to become financial stable, not because of the numbers.
but because of the Time, freedom, and choices.

man if you're in the States and have a car just deliver some damn pizza for easy cash.
find a friend that will let you crash at his/her place in exchange for some pizza and weed (that you buy with your easy cash).
find a milf while delivering pizza and use her money to invest in your businesses.

@GORKA Sorry to hear about your situation, but now is not the time to run an Internet Business, find out where the nearest job is, even if you need to work at McDonald's, no McDonald's near you, then drive to one.
Once you got a job lined up, then sell your car and use the money to rent the cheapest place you can find then get back to IM.

The important thing you need to learn is that only YOU can save your own ass. Its going to help you be free, independant, and a hustler! It will teach you to push yourself. Its a fucked up situtation, but you will learn. Be positive, thibk of it as a vacation from life, but hone those ficking skills like no other! This happened for a reason, your at the forks in thr road...a new meaning of life bro. Bless you

The best thing about your situation is your rock bottom, you have nothing else to loose. Now go out there and start working your way to the top.

You have your life and that's the best thing.

Bro as long as you have internet acces you can make money!
My tip for you is to start learning everything on Google Adwords - Google offers free exams and training video's on the internet (it's easy).

At this moment there is a high demand for it in my area and some people i know make GOOD money.

Start creating and managing Campaigns for small businesses and charge them a small fee every month until you gget back on your feet again.

If you need help just shoot me a PM.

Remember The golden Rule: We are Online Marketers.. We never give up!

The most likely thing I can think of which can make someone bankrupt in a day is having a highly leveraged futures or forex position. The futures collapsed at around 6pm EST yesterday due to the brexit vote. Any leveraged position in the wrong direction (more than 10x leverage) would've been margin called for sure.

The two worst things you can do in stocks is short term trading and leveraged positions.

that's actually a pretty good idea

I think everyone should know, IM is not always stable. Don't take too much chances when you're in it.

 

[drilonnn]

You say homeless i say free.

Wtf dude? How can you be free if you dont have a bed to sleep on.

 

[nikchaing]

He might not have a "bed" right now, but that'll change soon. At least he doesn't have rent/mortgage that he can't pay, and he doesn't have mouths to feed aside from his own.

There was this guy at my old office job that lived at home with his mom. He was a smart guy and thought very highly of himself. I came across his profile on a site once and he described himself as a "location independent entrepreneur"

There's always a positive way to look at the situation.

Like someone mentioned earlier, lots of people around the world live check-to-check, day-to-day. I've even been super close myself. I've been what is commonly referred to as "first world broke."

I had a car, apartment, smart phone, laptop, computer, etc. but could barely manage to live after paying car payment ($400), rent ($700). There were months when I didn't even have power in my apartment. I would chill at my friends house most of the day, and come back to my pitch black apartment at night with a fully charged laptop. I would also steal internet from the abortion clinic that was right behind my apartment building.

I finally sucked it up and did whatever to get any kind of job that gave me a flexible schedule. I got hired practically in one day by Papa Johns and started making like $100+ every night I worked (huge college town).

The rest is history. Kept doing my thing online and I was able to leave Papa Johns after about 8 months, and shortly after that I found myself on a trip to Ungagged London '15 and that truly transformed my life.

TL;DR
Stay positive bro, you got this. I've been in a similar situation and I'm sure you can make it out. You're learning a lot about life right now and you're gonna have a great story to tell people in the future.

I'm with everyone else saying go back and get your diploma. But apparently you can't. Never heard of a state law saying you can't go back to school until you're 19 if you drop out. And if you were banned from school grounds...

...OP what aren't you telling us? This story is starting to get weird.

Here is what my money would be going on.

A. Fictional Story.
B. Argument with parents, throws a kiddy flid and says I'm moving out. Two days later tucked back up in his bed with a cup of hot chocolate and his teddy bear.

Makes a mockery out of genuine homeless people. Could be wrong, but it is where I would be sticking my money.
