I grew up homeless, I left home at 14 years of age, you get used to it. Once you tire of it, you get your a** to work.

I lived in my car when i was homeless. I parked it in a public parking lot and sleep all day in it. During the day i tried to work some places. That is how a homeless person lives. Sometimes we beg too. I am no longer homeless, but i was years ago.

See if there's a gym nearby like Planet Fitness, it's only $20/mo and you can keep yourself in shape and use it to take showers.

Don't be afraid to look into resources like food banks, shelters, church programs, and the like. They exist to help people who need it, don't be too proud to use them.

They survive by surviving.

Less Is More... as the asteemed Master Yoda once said... learn to let go of what you fear to lose the most...:-)

This world sucks. To lose the roof over your head.

There aren't many truly homeless people.

Most people have family or rescue centres they can go to.

It's mainly people who don't have these things and have mental problems, addictions and so on, or who are really unlucky that end up with nowhere to go but the streets.

Elon Musk is wrong about many things, but this is not one of them.

Downgrade your lifestyle if you can to reduce cost of living and keep looking for a job.

Sincere best of luck to you OP, I was following what had happen to you and hope you find income soon.

There are plenty of such videos if you bother to look. The USA has more homeless now than ever before. Wealth disparity is worse now than ever before. You look ignorant when you post stuff like this.
