Fired Just Before Christmas: Unemployed & Living in a Van at 33 years old

Hello everyone!
First of all I just want to offer a massive heartfelt thank you to everyone who has reached out to me and sent me such supportive messages… it has touched me beyond belief and really given me my drive back to succeed!
I'm also deeply touched by the generosity of those who have offered donations. Your willingness to help a stranger in need has truly humbled me. However, I must humbly decline any further donations. My initial goal was to raise enough for a full tank of diesel to keep me going, and your kindness has surpassed that expectation beyond anything I could have expected. My tank is now full, and I am so, beyond, incredibly grateful for your support.
It is ultimately my fault I am in this situation, and I should have saved money in my savings to be better prepared for this sort of knock, rather than thinking this would never happen to me. Any extra money you have so kindly shared will go to one side and will be invested back in the channel and any other way I can think of to give back to this awesome community.
Thank you so much
NK
Fate has dealt me a harsh blow - I've been laid off just before Christmas. For the first time in 15 years, I find myself unemployed, with little savings and a daunting job market ahead. I need to see through the winter and look for work ASAP to keep this van life dream alive!

True gent! 😍 good luck in finding a job 🤩 Have a happy Christmas 🎄

[@jesusisking3974]

Never refuse generosity....it's what God Almighty wants you to have. He saw how brave you were coming forward with your troubles...which is Not easy to do...so when you make that first step God helps pave your way by placing it in your viewers heart's to help because he knows you have a kind and pure Soul. You said you are creative....that's the same remit as you're Heavenly Father. The money you recieve will be to put towards your creative future working for yourself in a business. He knows that when you are financially stable you will help other's. The year 2024 is when people's lives will really take off under our Lord's Blessings. Everyone working for the Greater Good of other's....❤🙏

Hey, hang on in there, you’ll be ok. I’m 57, I was converting my van that I was going to use for the odd weekend away, then I worked out how much rent I’d paid over the last few years and was horrified so I decided to move into my van, next April when my tenancy ends. I thought I’d live in my van and save a couple of years to buy somewhere in Spain or maybe a canal boat. Then, a month ago my job came to an end after 6 1/2 years and like you it’s a bit unfair and I’m a bit stuffed. But, after the anger of what’s happened calm’s down you realise there’s a big open road and you have choice ! Great video !

[@Nomadickangoo]

Thanks for sharing man, I hope your situation gets better and you still get to move into your van and get that place in Spain 🙏

[@digitechnomad]

I live in Spain in a tiny house so i can travel around and work on the road in my 2018 Renault Trafic with my dog, hence my handle

[@chickenofthecave7046]

Don't let it get you down brother, your stronger than you know. As a quote I once heard goes, " The strength of my soul was born on the backs of moments that brought me to my knees " Have a great Christmas and I wish you all the best for the future, I believe in you.

[@beaulieuc8910]

i am a woman and i have been bullied by women, it is absolutely awful, but i have learned more about narcissism and how to deal with them, it is very hard in the workplace as you cannot get away

[@mmwaashumslowww7167]

This came as a shock Alex but companies these days want everything and give nothing. Job descriptions used to mean something a while back but many driving jobs for example want you to drive full time, work in the warehouse when needed and take calls and orders in the office. Anything they want really and it's like it or lump it. Check out the good advice for you, that I've seen in the comments and I am wishing you good luck and a brighter future, if that's possible in these dark times.

[@Nomadickangoo]

So much good advice out here, everyone on here is SO SUPPORTIVE! But yes, you are right, companies want far to much from you for far to little

Take it as a mini break and recharge your batteries. Try and get out everyday even for a 30 min walk, just keep your spirits up. And if you truly get bored make a few extra videos. They don't have to be long but they might help keep you occupied. Stay warm and safe.

[@scottandcoke1342]

I know this might not resonate right now but a lot of us are stuck in the 9-5 grind and dream of living on the edge but dont have the cojones to pull the trigger. You're living it. They'll be ups and downs, these are the downs but overall what you're doing takes a special character. I think the lesson to be learnt is work your way into a position of power before playing russian roulette. I did this at my old job, I made sure they needed me more than i needed them before making ultimatums.

[@Nomadickangoo]

You are right, I played a dangerous game and lost. But you are right in what you say

[@williamsdaf]

I have never seen such generosity in the comments section of a You Tube Channel. You have some special subscribers. I am now long term unemployed and was let go just before Christmas from one job and the DWP stopped my Universal Credit in 2020 two weeks before Xmas so I can understand your situation. It's a tough time of year for more people than is generally acknowledged.

For a couple of months get a night shift job in Morrison's supermarket filling shelves. This means you also have free meals and free overnight parking in their car park which means you can sleep in your van through the day anywhere without charge.

A large number of us suffer similar or same at work. Nothing really you did wrong as, like the rest of us, you learn as you go. Don't "make waves" within the first two years as they have to go through a long drawn out process before/if they let you go. Joining a union (even if they are not your thing) is wise as they will offer support and employers will be more wary. At your low points remember many are with you. You are young, bright, have skills and have a good spirit. You'll be fine. btw..first time on your channel..subscribed...I want to see your good progress.

Believe me mate you’ve done the right thing it will all work out.

[@Nomadickangoo]

I am nearly twice your age (Like Tim), I have experienced what you have done with "The One" too many times to mention. Like you I live in a van I have owned a number of properties but equally been homeless of lived in a vehicle (Lock-up / Garage) numerous times over the years, but it Could have been far Worse, at least living in a van makes it harder for you to become homeless, even with no Road TAX, Insurance or MOT You'll be Safe and independent on your Mums drive for a month or few. Good Luck for the future.

[@CamperQueen888]

I wish you good luck buddy, I am 29 and live in a van with very similar circumstances to you (like mirror image) day by day is the best way, I believe it's just about being the best version of yourself and surviving 🙏 what a handsome haircut too 😉 all the best Camper 👍

[@Nomadickangoo]

sorry to hear you are currently going through the same issue! I hope it gets better for you and my self real soon 🙏

[@CamperQueen888]

Thank you ☺️ it's not easy at the best of times van life, I understand the boredom, confined to your van all day, it's hard, but like you mentioned it's independence 🙂 roll on the summer 🌞 Steph x

The kindness of the barber is just the start, you have youth and health on your side. Don't consider what's happened a set back, consider it a new start a new beginning. Your going to be better for the experience and you did the right thing, irrespective what happens short term even if your not given an opportunity straight away just believe in yourself and it will all come together. I was a whistleblower for a large company and basically accepted a NDA in return for money at the time it seemed the best thing to do in hindsight it wasn't I possibly had the option to rip them to bits and embarras them and possibly receive more financial gain.

[@Nomadickangoo]

Thank you, I'm hoping this is the fresh new start that i have needed for so long!

[@harrisonruss99]
