So I guess I am. I went homeless for about 6 months but I cheated, I had a well paying job and a truck to live in. Further, I had the company gym to use for showering and the security controlled parking lot to sleep in. I just got tired of paying so much for an apartment and buying a home was not an option in the part of California that I lived in.
The ironic thing is now that good job moved me to Az and then dumped me. Now it looks like I will be homeless for real… well, I still have a job but it does not pay the rent so it looks like the streets for me.
It was an insightful character building endeavor the first time but not something I look forward to doing again if there is anyway to avoid it.
