How I Became Homeless (My Story)

You are only 22 years old there’s nothing wrong with living with your parents for a few more years until you can build your money back up.

Your story you told here in this video is truly one that everyone could learn from. The good, the bad, the REAL. At least you can build up your savings again now, but also I don't doubt that your parents would be cool with you coming back and pretty much doing the same thing. Regardless, I wish you good luck.

[@Mac_DeMarten]

The moral of this story. Cars are expensive, I would recommend you to live in city where you don't need or want a car. But that means moving to a another country because US doesn't have such cities (only with a few exceptions). I live in a city where I don't need a car that means I don't have to spend thousands on buying and maintaining a car.

Working in sales has shown me that 27k is really not a lot of money when you are financially illiterate and trying to keep an appearance. I’ve seen so many people lose tens of thousands in a couple of months because of this and it’s so sad, they’d probably go broke even winning the lottery

@@dtrizzle67 I recommend it to any young guys wanting to level up, it depends on you and how much you put into it. It helps you learn about a bunch of stuff all at once and in the middle of everything, forces you to be disciplined and persistent since your success depends on it, and you actually get to see those around you succeeding when they work hard so it motivates you and let’s you know it’s possible to actually change your life, not just a bunch of people making the same hourly wage just for not missing work.

I have a 2015 Mazda CX-5 and love it. I have about 4 payments left. I bought it in 2018 after someone turned in a lease. She drove it about 22,000 miles and I talked them down to 18,900. They wanted $1,000 more and I started to walk out because I had a pre-approval for 17,000 and was putting down 2,000. So with tax and etc, I couldn’t go higher. The minute I got out of my seat, the guy said, wait, let me talk to the manager. I bought the car before they even cleaned or did the check on it because it was in such great condition. I love it and the sunroof. I even haul my tiny travel trailer with it. I’ve even car camped in it.

[@MrOktsx]

It's enlightening to see someone of your generation that understands (in real time) that what they're going through will build character. You've learned some hard lessons early in life. The trick is to not make the same mistakes again. Best of luck!

[@adriano1309]

This video is so real bro. I hope you find peace in your situation, I honestly would just move back in with your peeps man, no shame in that cause you're super young. This vid alone shows the growth you've had through your journey

[@tristiandavis6852]

Yeah bro when you got the BMW I was like damn he must be making at least 10k a month, but yeah people (especially in professions that fluctuate a lot such as yours) need to realize that the views, money, follower accounts, will not stay the same all the time. People get banned, lose access to accounts, get hacked, reported, etc so you have to have multiple bigger streams of income coming in to make sure you're protected. But best of luck bro, I'm 19 and on a similar path to yours and wishing you the best of success.

[@javianjohnson8746]

Yea I agree with this, KZbin is not a reliable income in terms of knowing that you're guaranteed to make at least a certain amount of money per check. Buying something costly (such as a brand new luxury car or apartment)with a stable, reliable income is always the best route to go

Not if it’s 0 apr and you invest the money or put it in a high yield savings account. Or like me I have a 2.7 percent loan for 30k but I also have a savings account with the same amount that pays me 3.25 interest rate so I’m making back the money while keeping it and making a little bit more that way than if I paid cash. Credit is a tool, just gotta know how to use it. And yes go home Jordan x2

Here’s something that doesn’t make sense to me. As someone who works online and does this KZbin stuff, why do you even need a car in the first place?

This black or white thinking were you think moving back makes you a failure and living on your own even if houseless is not is nonsense bro. I’d much rather move back and pay some rent money to my parents, not have a car payment at all and go all in with KZbin without worrying about where you’re gonna eat next, shower, brush your teeth, it’s just too much man think rationally, stop with the intuition bs.
