It’s definitely pretty cool to be able to find fulfillment and happiness without the lengthy amount of comforts of modern society. I’m working on this currently trying to transition to minimalism but I am also homeless and it’s been hard since I am a single female. Also kind of weird because my family live in the same city and are millionaires but do nothing to help me.

No you can't do it forever. Being homeless has side effects on you. The isolation is the worst part. Little social interaction. When I did it, I had a goal. I worked the goal just as this guy did. Most people that are homeless are also, either jobless or don't make a living wage. They get sick! No insurance. We need national healthcare. We need higher wages for the labor sectors for sure and hospitality industry's.

@@Hello-iz9hlwhy should it be temporary? There is no benefit to owning a home outside of perception. They want you to feel like you’re missing something when you arent. You can live your entire life in hotels or on the street and be completely happy. You cannot be isolated in a city with 8,000,000 people. You’d have to intentionally not talk or ignore everyone. There’s ALWAYS someone willing to talk to you here ive been here my entire life. I always have a short conversation with at least 2 strangers per day just on randomness. Its not difficult.

I was homeless for a time. I lived in my car. A Chevy Cobalt. I’m 6’4” and 280lbs and I did it in Florida. It wasn’t easy. I’m a light sleeper and I would park as close to my job as possible usually in a new construction housing development that was totally unoccupied. But getting woken up at 1am by police officers who make you get out of your car and run your drivers license and then they tell you that you can’t be there and to go somewhere else…. Gets old real quick. But I stuck with it. I eventually got a 1 bedroom apartment because I met this really nice women who eventually became my wife but I didn’t want to freak her out or scare her off. So I got a place so she wouldn’t find out. I couldn’t lose her. But, living out of my car wasn’t so bad. I worked full time, saved a bunch of money, kept myself very close to my job at all times which was located on a busy intersection. Everything I needed was there, even my $10 a month gym membership which allowed me to shower. Truthfully, I’d do it all again temporarily, but the wife would never go for it. She’s one of those people with standards I guess

Being homeless is scary. But what's scarier than being homeless is working 70 hrs a week and watching all your income go to bills. And still starving. I chose to be homeless because of inflation. If everyone say fk rent and lived out in the open we all can own a home someday. But not how they got us living. To each their own though.

I have been homeless off and on for years. Last two years I started building a customer base and thinking about starting a business, but i wasn't ready, the stress started getting to me, I really want to go back on another homeless adventure, check out some cities I've never been to. Really I love sleeping outside sometimes. Just finding a place to clean up can be difficult, but I've learned many tricks.

it's not the less you own the happier you are even according to Armando Esposito, the man living a homeless life is that it is extremely stressful and negatively uncomfortable. He said that what is keeping him going is that he is designing the properties he is building with the money he is saving from not having to pay for rent and most of his food as he works at a restaurant. He is therefore using his savings to increase what he owns so that after a few years he will be sure he owns a lot.

Yup I was happy when I lived outside on Madison Wisconsin I had 2 jobs then I had 3 and I could sleep in my sleeping bags and keep my clothes clean and I had a storage and I was at peace at night no people bothering you, no one going through your things you can get up and live in peace with nature you cant take nothing with you anyway In life even if you have money like Warren Buffett and elon musk sure you can TRAVEL and fly around the world and buy new vehicles and buy private jets and have jewelry and stock and women or men and eat different food but if you dont have peace its purposely living for nothing because in the end we do own things they own us 😀☝️

I really like your post, although you haven't reminded me to become a homeless man I feel exceptional creating opportunity for myself in my life due to the video you shared. one way or another I would of felt in love with the idea that someone would give to me the feeling of freedom. this is true that your video made me feel like enjoying my time independently. I have a following, its not on social media and it just so happen to become a part of my lifestyle and yet I may leave them for my homelessness because I want to be closer to my freedom. I also work and I provide for my family, as much as I can. some of my family member only support me if it benefits them but I don't ask anything of them I just control my happiness. I hope you see my msg and you know that amongst all of the daily commuters, the writers or novelist I am responsibly thinking about the happiness I control and in a small theory you are there too.. thank you for posting your video, " may great success be youres to keep".
