I found myself homeless when I lost my job, had health issues and a divorce all in a short amount of time. To make matters worse my financial investment went belly up at the same time as these stressors were happening. I lost all my savings. I agree that circumstances can result in anyone becoming homeless. I eventually did recover but the experience will always remind me that all humans are not immune from vulnerability.
I am sometimes afraid to lose mt job for health reason. ..it happened to me once, lost all my savings, and took me 5 years to getback 8n my feet with 6000 left in my bank account. .but, what happened, I met people who guided me toward a new job and I had found treatment for my medical condition sfter seaching for a solution and knocking on many doors..everything happened around the same time....so I received my awakening, and believed a miracle can happen when you hit rock bottom.
100% true. I was briefly homeless in 2016 and went to a shelter. After seeing the fucking terrifying zoo that awaited me in the waiting area, I opted for sleeping outside on a bench.
When I got divorced, I lost the family home, all my belongings in the home, but most of all my son.. The day I left I stopped overnight at my cousins and the next day bought myself a caravan, pitched it up at my dad's, and a week later was able to carry on seeing my son... He was 5 when this happened... He is now 13,and my life is back on track, but so very nearly wasn't.. Circumstances that's all takes.
I am so sorry to hear you had to go through that. Glad things are going well for you now though. If I may ask. Is there any advice you could give about life or anything you may have learned from your experience ? I have three older brother's and being able to learn from their experiences ( The good and the bad ) has helped me out so much in life. It had such an impact on me that I always try to learn from anyone that has been through something that I have not.
My brother is a somewhat slow learner now in his fourth marriage. He has lost two houses, his boat, land he had purchased for retirement, and most of his savings. Ended up at 63 in a caravan. Me ? Never married. Doing just fine.
Injured on the job in 2013. Been homeless since 2014, almost 7 years. I owned my home when I was working. Been fighting SSI for over 5 years. I'm disabled. Cant walk or stand to long. You are lucky you are not injured!
KGB KGB yet many of these countries economys are growing drastically. Especially China and India, here in the U.S. we have people dying every day because they can't afford overpriced medicine that's much less expensive in places like Canada and Mexico, especially insulin. Guys like you make it sound like it's a choice between complete socialism or complete capitalism. When the best countries to live in have a mix of the two, like Sweden, Scandinavia, and Norway. No one dies because they can't afford overpriced medicine, or even to see a doctor. And they're generally happier, healthier, and better off than most people in more capitalist centered countries like the U.S..
KGB KGB you know why rich people from Canada come to the U.S. for medical care? Because they can just buy there way to the front of the line. In places like Canada care is distributed by actual need, the sickest people get care first, why here in america if your poor you may never get care because if you can pay you don't get care. That's why thousands die in America from a lack of basic medical care, people die every day because they can't afford the over priced medicine they need to stay alive. The rich come here because here it's the size of your wallet that counts not how sick you are. British citizens actually fly home when they have work here because it's cheaper to take a flight home to get care than get care here. There's a reason why every modern western democracy has a form of single payer healthcare, America's the outlier, we have the most expensive healthcare system on earth and one of the least efficient in the western world. Also care to give some actual sources for your claims on the refugee situation? Because from what I've seen a lot of refugee children are being abused in masse, probably because they're easy targets.
People who end up homeless due to a divorce. There are a lot of those. Ok, man, i get, you two don't love each other and decide to go separate ways, but how can you let the person that you shared your house and life with, live on the street and not give a single fuck about them anymore? It's the person you were the most intimate with and shared so many things, and now you just throw them in the trash. Is there no humanity in some people?
They even still feel the victim tho. But for sure not all women act like that. There are also a bunch of malefic men that end up with their brand new whore not seeing their own kids in the rest of there life tolerating their cunt's bastards haha.
Simon Tuffs - Not ALL women! I was the breadwinner, but I am the one who ended up losing almost everything. Why? Because I was too nice and trusted the gold-digging dirtbag that we would agree on everything and not give the attorneys all of (mostly) MY hard earned money. It was after the divorce when I found out just how bad I'd been basically robbed (investment accounts and savings drained and loans taken out in my name). Now I don't have the funds to hire an attorney because I became Disabled a few years ago. That's when the marriage went downhill...because the six-figure income was gone and he was spoiled. Anyway, I've said too much. But all women aren't evil, just like I hope all men aren't evil. I'm not ready to trust another one yet though!
Yes, no shit! I have only been subbed to this channel for two days and almost all cases are men who were destroyed by divorce or the end of a relationship. What the hell is going on? Why is America throwing all its men on a garbage heap? I am never going to get married. Jesus f*cking christ!
most people don't feel much like caring for the other person while the relationship lasts so when they get out of it they dont care at all... its disgusting
This homeless man speaks highly about living at Dignity Village in Portland, Oregon. From his description it sounds like a carefully run place to live at till one finds a paying job. They are required to put in 10 hours work per week helping around this camp. Glad these people have a place to make a new start. The US needs a lot more of this type to help our homeless.
At least not here in Europe. Sadly, it tend to be a reason behind it. Drugs or gambling for most of the time. Buying "no responsability" narratives would come in third place. But sadly most of em made their way to my job
how does a man with his education end up homeless? simple. he clearly had a breakdown during his divorce. you don't know the circumstances of the relationship or his level of mental health. I know all too well it's possible because I have a doctoral degree and came frighteningly close to ending up on the street in the midst of a terrible breakup. some of us are lucky enough to have friends with the means to help us get back on our feet, but many are not.
Roisin Ni She, you forget that at his age and education level, he deserves a high dollar salary. Businesses look to save on costs, not add to them. The unstated truth many people don't know is that the older one gets, the more education works against them with employers. Young and educated is one thing because employers can potentially get many years of service from you. But when one has around 12 years less of reasonable employability, getting hired is not easy. It's one of the real and sad factors the government knows about but no one has come up with a remedy. For most educated older workers, starting their own business is their best options. But unfortunatley, not all older workers have the capital to do that so it can be a tough situation being older and educated.
Róisín Ní Shé some people react to break up differently, most people just get over it coz their priority is job and money and career above anything, some people like this man and I are people who find job and money and career mean shit if our personal life is not successful. So hence why the smart ass never put personal relation success above anything.
lols it's not always drugs, he may have not been brushing his teeth when his life got so mess up. Go to third world you will see decaying teeths and they aint using drugs. So that's why third world dentist go broke ha ha.
I feel this. I hated going to the shelters. There was some dudes in these shelters that acted like they were demon possessed. Some may not understand, some may call it mental illness. I was homeless with my best friend and we chose to sleep outside on the city streets in a well hidden area. In Seattle, it was so much better because they had a 18-26 youth shelter and everyone was nice and wonderful souls. I liked that shelter because they cared for the young homeless. Other shelters were a nightmare. I'm happy now because I'm not on the street. I just hope one day no one will be homeless. It is the worst. Can really make you selfless and care about others. It'll either harden your heart, or soften it.
I have B.S. & M.S. degrees in physics and I used to teach physics in college before I was divorced and got laid off. Now I work at a low-paying menial job and just live day to day, hoping that I don't get sick or disabled. My retirement plan is a .45 cal full metal jacket round from my Colt semi-auto pistol. I was homeless and lived on the streets in the early 70s when I got out of the Army in 1970 and I don't plan on going back there.
Pretty much every guy I meet over 50 was on track to retire early and was financially sound until their wife divorced them and cleaned them out of their assets and pension. Women wonder why they can't find a guy who wants to settle down. This poor man, he's brilliant and now living in poverty. Life can really be awful.

A college degree doesn't mean you have a job. I am a USMC veteran, trained as an Aviation Radar Repairman, physically fit, expert marksman, a semester away from a bachelor's degree in Business Communications with a 3.5 GPA but can do better, and 8 years of truck driving experience. And I am homeless. I have a child that I support and current pay support and have arrears. I also have other medical debts and a divorce. The financial circumstances means that my daughter gets a home and I live at work with no home. It's ok because this is my home. Home is where you make it.
I knew non-tenured professors at a university that costs over $50,000 per year who lived in other people's apartments and one of them lived on a small boat. They're not paid enough to support themselves in the city where the college is located.
Judges usually side with women. Even if the woman is in the wrong . very common in the USA. Since being a male.the judge will tell you your an able working man. But fail to realise no one can rebuild themselves off of minimum wage. And have bad credit. It's pretty hard to get ahead. If people actually cared about each other and helped one another out in times of need. Homeless wouldn't be so bad this day and age. Everyone in life needed help one way or another to get where they are. Greediness is not a good trait to have. Being helpful kind caring is a good trait. Our country is so addicted to money . instead of bitching about homeless people maybe try helping them. They might not be perfect people but no one is regardless who you are or how much money you make. Their human and have feelings like the rest of us.
Well, considering he went homeless she didn't get anything either (you can't squeeze blood out of a turnip). They probably sold the house split the proceeds-she remarried and he spent his money on the RV and was unable to get an adjunct job as a professor so he ended up here. Divorce is damaging to both parties because 60% of Americans make less than 50,000 per year-that barely gets all the bills paid unless you live in a cheaper state (but if you do ya likely aren't make 50k a year). When you live together or are married the upside is you pool your money (to buy a house a car etc.) if you split that house of cars can tumble.
@@sprucemeriky4510 That's not true the court usually side with the mothers because of the children. A man who doesn't support his children is a true scumbag. I've seen plenty of men get spousal benefits from their ex wives when she is the breadwinner. If you don't want to pay for children then get a vasectomy.
I never bothered to check into a homeless shelter before because of what I've heard about them in the past, and to tell you the truth, If I were to become homeless again, I rather freeze to death on a park bench, then to check into one of those nasty, thiefing, Smelley, greasy, homeless shelters.❄😬❄

I also got caught up in the 'get an RV and tour the country' delusion. That is a lifestyle for people with big back-up money and pensions. But, the need to escape over rode my ability to see realistically, so at 60 I was living at a friend's house, having sold mine. Fortunately in the last 3 years I have been able to get it together and re-stock my savings account, somewhat. My neighbor it talking about doing the same thing and there's no talking him out of it.
This guy is accurate. Many shelters are more interested in looking good for the city council. For anyone new to being homless they go to such places and have a shock at all the messy people that linger. He isn't lying when sleeping in the woods is better. But that cannot be done without know what you are doing. It is harder in the woods than in a building. But for some folks who know how to do it. It is safer. People see you and what they can get out of you. That is worse in my opinion that any dumb bear. A few bugs and a rainy evening in the cold.
I'm not sure that is true, there is probably a much lower risk among conservative types and among this focused on personal responsibility and family: I think he may have chosen to quit and travel the country in an RV.
@@psyskeptic9979 one thing many people don’t understand is how one HUGE emotional blow can destroy a life. So many people are under the impression one can just always pick themselves up by the bootstraps. It is not always the case. Because people have not lived it, they can’t even fathom that type of loss of control over their own selves and life and choices. I’m not excusing bad choices. I’m trying to tell you it’s very possible for the heart and core of you to be so struck you are just mentally and emotionally paralyzed and CAN’T function as usual. We used to shame soldiers with shell shock...as if they had any say over their state. Well, it’s the same sometimes for regular folks. A hit to the core can cause total loss and without a scrap of oomph to even start to recover. We need to understand this. No one wants to believe that can happen to them. It can.
A lot of these people would find a home with a family member back in the day. With the breakdown of the family unit, homelessness is going to be trending upwards for quite awhile.
@@lessons4civil It's simple: if you're too smart, you can't function properly in modern society anymore. I have a university degree, I even wrote several books, but I do manual labor. Back-breaking manual labor. Because I don't have to think when I slave away. If you put me behind a computer at work, I just constantly wish an asteroid would strike this sad planet.
@Mike Did I end my comment above with the words "this is always the case"? No, I didn't. I was clearly writing about my own experience, that is all. This makes your comment, especially the juvenile "lol", rather pointless, no? 'Cause you can basically say the same thing about every goddamn anecdote you'll ever hear. "I went to the supermarket and I had to wait 30 minutes at the cash register." "that's not always the case lol" "I had sex with a gorgeous blonde but when she came she yelled another guy's name." "that's not always the case lol" "I fell from the roof, but I survived without any injuries." "that's not always the case lol" And so on. Don't feel bad about it, though. At least 90% of the internet is pointless drivel, so you fit right in.
Good for you. I got off the homeless problem when I went over the road trucking with a nice Freightliner Cascadia. Money and built in home. Now I own an acre in Ohio. Cheers
Professor video is great. Once it hits you, your wife is going to leave you, your friends are going to leave you, your family will drop you like a stone, your colleagues will withdraw all respect, the government will blacklist you, the internet will know about it too, and then mental illness, concentration, drugs and eating problems come in. By the time you could find work, you are so totally destroyed, physically and psychologically. It's a vicious circle from then on. :-(
It does not have to be your fault either. I had a relationship with "a great guy" who became violent. When I left him most of my friends decided he was still a great guy.

This is the largest obstacle i see in helping anyone our own decision to judge someone first without knowing the facts ..
Human beings deserve respect. They should not be thought of in economic terms. We are not walking plus or minus dollar signs. No one should be insulted or judged based on what they own, where they work or don't work, how independent they are , how much money they have, etc.

Bringing in half the Third World specifically to lower wages, subsidizing their housing and living expenses just might have something to do with the housing crisis for Americans....
@A S - Consider supply and demand regarding increased demand for limited housing units and increased prices for housing, as well as a labor glut from immigration resulting in lower wages. These two economic dynamics it could be argued result (in a free market with limited capital for construction loans post 2008 global recession) with a higher risk of homelessness. Also in most cases immigrants to the West have access to assistance both public and private not readily available to native citizens. I would think this concept is self-evident and not a cause for derision i.e. your "lmao" comment. I do not discount, drug use, alcoholism and mental.illness contributing to homelessness among the native-born, however.
I have relocated at least 10 times in my 60 years of life. I lived in rooming houses, weekly hotels, with relatives short term until I found an apartment with my name on the lease in my forty years of adulthood. In all that time I have lost jobs due to reasons that were my fault and unforseen circumstances. If you do not have a major alcohol or drug problem , illness and you are able to work at some level a job you should be able to find some place affordable to live even if it is not the best cirsumstances. I have never lived in California, but I have lived in NYC, DC, Atlanta, Florida so I know about high rent and cost living while not making a lot of money. But when I know I am making a little, I have to scrimp and budget living in certain areas of town. I believe it is better to have a apartment on a bad side of town than to live on the streets.

I knew a Professor, who was made redundant well before (10-15 years) his retiring age and if he didn't own his own house and had a wife still working, he too could have ended up on the streets.

the f....king SNORING. Shelters expose you to all sorts of other people's 'issues", esp. the ones who don't see their "impact" on others. I moved into my cube van for two years. Moved if it was noisy!!! It was great. I had some of the best sleep nights in my life.
That guy is balanced and intelligent. He could definitely get a job. However a shit job is not always the answer. I would almost rather be in that situation than working a horrific job to support a household with someone your unhappy with

So at our age a BA or MASTERS will not help us old folks get that wonderful job we dream about! I worked in the printing industry for 38 years! How can you compete with younger people who will work for less! Also these kids haven't the experience I have! But yet no work for me to this day! It's fucked up!
America should be ashamed of its homelessness. Well done for reporting and documenting life in the land of the so called free, rich and powerful. Shame!
Best of luck to him. I know how it is to be homeless...The shelters are actually the LAST best place to go when homeless, in many cases. It is sad in such a rich country, this is going on...
Eric Sartana but a major point is we are no longer a rich country. 22 trillion of debt, corrupt Deep State politicians, international trade agreements that have diluted our job pool, open borders and lack of sovereignty, in California citizens lose 50 cents of every dollar to taxes (gas there now approaching $4/gallon). It's a modern day myth that we are a wealthy nation. I think those coming across the border illegally have some major advantages: free healthcare, easier access to welfare, California supplemental income for immigrants, immunity from prosecution for crimes in sanctuary cities, networking with other illegals to start businesses, gangs, whatever they are into. It's the average traditional American citizen that is really running up against a wall. One estimate purports that 53% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck with zero savings. We are talking American citizens here. Healthcare costs have skyrocketed to ridiculous levels since the introduction of Obamacare. It is truly a frightening world we live in. And sadly, flawed as he is, there appears to be one lone individual sitting in the White House who understands the predictament we're in, but he stands alone, isolated, with no one else in government, even in his own party, willing to lift a finger to help.

It's not uncommon for professors who are homelesss--or borderline homeless. This type of professor usually is an 'adjunct.' An 'adjunct' is usually non-tenured and teaches by the class.
Who? Who is working 3 jobs for at least 40 hours a week and is homeless? What the f are they spending money on? I worked one minimum wage job for 40 hours when I was young, and I could save a little as well as all the rest.
I'm from the UK, and homelessness is getting worse here, but it still largely confined to those who fell through the cracks of the system: children in the care system, drug addicts, and people with mental illness and little support; this is bad enough, but the USA however seems to be a completely different situation. Its not like those who are in the categories I mentioned aren't also homeless, but its that I see so many people who had "respected" professions, careers and families also reduced to homelessness. Nobody should be without a roof, but when professors are becoming homeless then seriously - something isn't right.
If he really did just get an RV and travel around in it after his divorce, and is now homeless, it sounds like he just kept going till he had no money left. Which, if true, sounds like he had some problems before the traveling started. So the homelessness wasn't due to some sudden change he couldn't control.
You think a heavy emotional blow is something you can control? Ok, next time you lose a loved one you’re really close to just wave a magic wand to your hurting heart and go off skipping and humming delightfully through the funeral.

- forget about it, do you see any socialist countries on the map? only N.Korea and that's all
KGB KGB yet many of these countries economys are growing drastically. Especially China and India, here in the U.S. we have people dying every day because they can't afford overpriced medicine that's much less expensive in places like Canada and Mexico, especially insulin. Guys like you make it sound like it's a choice between complete socialism or complete capitalism. When the best countries to live in have a mix of the two, like Sweden, Scandinavia, and Norway. No one dies because they can't afford overpriced medicine, or even to see a doctor. And they're generally happier, healthier, and better off than most people in more capitalist centered countries like the U.S..
KGB KGB you know why rich people from Canada come to the U.S. for medical care? Because they can just buy there way to the front of the line. In places like Canada care is distributed by actual need, the sickest people get care first, why here in america if your poor you may never get care because if you can pay you don't get care. That's why thousands die in America from a lack of basic medical care, people die every day because they can't afford the over priced medicine they need to stay alive. The rich come here because here it's the size of your wallet that counts not how sick you are. British citizens actually fly home when they have work here because it's cheaper to take a flight home to get care than get care here. There's a reason why every modern western democracy has a form of single payer healthcare, America's the outlier, we have the most expensive healthcare system on earth and one of the least efficient in the western world. Also care to give some actual sources for your claims on the refugee situation? Because from what I've seen a lot of refugee children are being abused in masse, probably because they're easy targets.

Ok, man, i get, you two don't love each other and decide to go separate ways, but how can you let the person that you shared your house and life with, live on the street and not give a single fuck about them anymore? It's the person you were the most intimate with and shared so many things, and now you just throw them in the trash.
Is there no humanity in some people?
They even still feel the victim tho. But for sure not all women act like that. There are also a bunch of malefic men that end up with their brand new whore not seeing their own kids in the rest of there life tolerating their cunt's bastards haha.
Abraham especially women. they are completely hartless
Simon Tuffs - Not ALL women! I was the breadwinner, but I am the one who ended up losing almost everything. Why? Because I was too nice and trusted the gold-digging dirtbag that we would agree on everything and not give the attorneys all of (mostly) MY hard earned money. It was after the divorce when I found out just how bad I'd been basically robbed (investment accounts and savings drained and loans taken out in my name). Now I don't have the funds to hire an attorney because I became Disabled a few years ago. That's when the marriage went downhill...because the six-figure income was gone and he was spoiled. Anyway, I've said too much. But all women aren't evil, just like I hope all men aren't evil. I'm not ready to trust another one yet though!
Yes, no shit! I have only been subbed to this channel for two days and almost all cases are men who were destroyed by divorce or the end of a relationship.
What the hell is going on? Why is America throwing all its men on a garbage heap?
I am never going to get married. Jesus f*cking christ!
most people don't feel much like caring for the other person while the relationship lasts so when they get out of it they dont care at all... its disgusting
This homeless man speaks highly about living at Dignity Village in Portland, Oregon. From his description it sounds like a carefully run place to live at till one finds a paying job. They are required to put in 10 hours work per week helping around this camp. Glad these people have a place to make a new start. The US needs a lot more of this type to help our homeless.
His three wishes are such a life lesson.. how modest and realistic.
We are all one event away from becoming homeless.
Yes we are.

At least not here in Europe. Sadly, it tend to be a reason behind it. Drugs or gambling for most of the time. Buying "no responsability" narratives would come in third place. But sadly most of em made their way to my job
That event is here
What a nice man💝
I agree, but he's not actually homeless, I'm actually kinda jealous tbh
how does a man with his education end up homeless? simple. he clearly had a breakdown during his divorce. you don't know the circumstances of the relationship or his level of mental health. I know all too well it's possible because I have a doctoral degree and came frighteningly close to ending up on the street in the midst of a terrible breakup. some of us are lucky enough to have friends with the means to help us get back on our feet, but many are not.
Roisin Ni She, you forget that at his age and education level, he deserves a high dollar salary. Businesses look to save on costs, not add to them. The unstated truth many people don't know is that the older one gets, the more education works against them with employers. Young and educated is one thing because employers can potentially get many years of service from you. But when one has around 12 years less of reasonable employability, getting hired is not easy. It's one of the real and sad factors the government knows about but no one has come up with a remedy. For most educated older workers, starting their own business is their best options. But unfortunatley, not all older workers have the capital to do that so it can be a tough situation being older and educated.
Róisín Ní Shé some people react to break up differently, most people just get over it coz their priority is job and money and career above anything, some people like this man and I are people who find job and money and career mean shit if our personal life is not successful. So hence why the smart ass never put personal relation success above anything.
maybe the ruling was very unfair and the assets weren't assigned equally... all the products of his hard labor gone towards the ex...
Sky Very good words!

I feel this. I hated going to the shelters. There was some dudes in these shelters that acted like they were demon possessed. Some may not understand, some may call it mental illness.
I was homeless with my best friend and we chose to sleep outside on the city streets in a well hidden area. In Seattle, it was so much better because they had a 18-26 youth shelter and everyone was nice and wonderful souls. I liked that shelter because they cared for the young homeless. Other shelters were a nightmare. I'm happy now because I'm not on the street. I just hope one day no one will be homeless. It is the worst. Can really make you selfless and care about others. It'll either harden your heart, or soften it.
I have B.S. & M.S. degrees in physics and I used to teach physics in college before I was divorced and got laid off. Now I work at a low-paying menial job and just live day to day, hoping that I don't get sick or disabled. My retirement plan is a .45 cal full metal jacket round from my Colt semi-auto pistol. I was homeless and lived on the streets in the early 70s when I got out of the Army in 1970 and I don't plan on going back there.

Pretty much every guy I meet over 50 was on track to retire early and was financially sound until their wife divorced them and cleaned them out of their assets and pension.

And I am homeless. I have a child that I support and current pay support and have arrears. I also have other medical debts and a divorce. The financial circumstances means that my daughter gets a home and I live at work with no home. It's ok because this is my home. Home is where you make it.

homeless professor = welcome to USA
I knew non-tenured professors at a university that costs over $50,000 per year who lived in other people's apartments and one of them lived on a small boat. They're not paid enough to support themselves in the city where the college is located.
I used to work for a university. The salaries are fking sht... only those who tongue the arses of the higher ups get the big dough.
anybody can be homeless even the most famous of people have died under bridges un recognized

According to homeless people, they all have PhDs and used to run NASA or a medical association.
wife wiped him out in court .how old is that
He probably cheated. Adulterers don't fare well in court, especially the female ones.
Judges usually side with women. Even if the woman is in the wrong . very common in the USA. Since being a male.the judge will tell you your an able working man. But fail to realise no one can rebuild themselves off of minimum wage. And have bad credit. It's pretty hard to get ahead. If people actually cared about each other and helped one another out in times of need. Homeless wouldn't be so bad this day and age. Everyone in life needed help one way or another to get where they are. Greediness is not a good trait to have. Being helpful kind caring is a good trait. Our country is so addicted to money . instead of bitching about homeless people maybe try helping them. They might not be perfect people but no one is regardless who you are or how much money you make. Their human and have feelings like the rest of us.
Well, considering he went homeless she didn't get anything either (you can't squeeze blood out of a turnip). They probably sold the house split the proceeds-she remarried and he spent his money on the RV and was unable to get an adjunct job as a professor so he ended up here. Divorce is damaging to both parties because 60% of Americans make less than 50,000 per year-that barely gets all the bills paid unless you live in a cheaper state (but if you do ya likely aren't make 50k a year). When you live together or are married the upside is you pool your money (to buy a house a car etc.) if you split that house of cars can tumble.
@@sprucemeriky4510 That's not true the court usually side with the mothers because of the children.
A man who doesn't support his children is a true scumbag.
I've seen plenty of men get spousal benefits from their ex wives when she is the breadwinner.
If you don't want to pay for children then get a vasectomy.

I never bothered to check into a homeless shelter before because of what I've heard about them in the past, and to tell you the truth, If I were to become homeless again, I rather freeze to death on a park bench, then to check into one of those nasty, thiefing, Smelley, greasy, homeless shelters.❄😬❄

I also got caught up in the 'get an RV and tour the country' delusion. That is a lifestyle for people with big back-up money and pensions. But, the need to escape over rode my ability to see realistically, so at 60 I was living at a friend's house, having sold mine. Fortunately in the last 3 years I have been able to get it together and re-stock my savings account, somewhat. My neighbor it talking about doing the same thing and there's no talking him out of it.

or just don`t get married. you could not end up homeless, but bored as hell
You can settle down with a woman without a license saying so...
ha ha. If u have assets, beware of marriage.
This guy is accurate. Many shelters are more interested in looking good for the city council. For anyone new to being homless they go to such places and have a shock at all the messy people that linger. He isn't lying when sleeping in the woods is better. But that cannot be done without know what you are doing. It is harder in the woods than in a building. But for some folks who know how to do it. It is safer. People see you and what they can get out of you. That is worse in my opinion that any dumb bear. A few bugs and a rainy evening in the cold.
it can happen to anyone.
It shouldn't and doesn't have to.
I'm not sure that is true, there is probably a much lower risk among conservative types and among this focused on personal responsibility and family: I think he may have chosen to quit and travel the country in an RV.
@@psyskeptic9979 one thing many people don’t understand is how one HUGE emotional blow can destroy a life. So many people are under the impression one can just always pick themselves up by the bootstraps. It is not always the case. Because people have not lived it, they can’t even fathom that type of loss of control over their own selves and life and choices. I’m not excusing bad choices. I’m trying to tell you it’s very possible for the heart and core of you to be so struck you are just mentally and emotionally paralyzed and CAN’T function as usual. We used to shame soldiers with shell shock...as if they had any say over their state. Well, it’s the same sometimes for regular folks. A hit to the core can cause total loss and without a scrap of oomph to even start to recover. We need to understand this. No one wants to believe that can happen to them. It can.
@Mrssewhardtoplease where are you, and does your country have homelessness?
"God bless this place we need more'
The woods are definitely more safer than a shelter

Professor video is great. Once it hits you, your wife is going to leave you, your friends are going to leave you, your family will drop you like a stone, your colleagues will withdraw all respect, the government will blacklist you, the internet will know about it too, and then mental illness, concentration, drugs and eating problems come in. By the time you could find work, you are so totally destroyed, physically and psychologically. It's a vicious circle from then on. :-(
It does not have to be your fault either. I had a relationship with "a great guy" who became violent. When I left him most of my friends decided he was still a great guy.

Good luck professor sir 💚🇬🇧
I am a grown man and i am disabled. to some extent i can and do help myself but i am dependant to a large extent on others ,,I know what is like to be ashamed of that and i know what its like to be judged based not on facts but what others assume are my circumstances and abilities . This is the largest obstacle i see in helping anyone our own decision to judge someone first without knowing the facts ..
Human beings deserve respect. They should not be thought of in economic terms. We are not walking plus or minus dollar signs. No one should be insulted or judged based on what they own, where they work or don't work, how independent they are , how much money they have, etc.

Bringing in half the Third World specifically to lower wages, subsidizing their housing and living expenses just might have something to do with the housing crisis for Americans....
how does that have to do with him being homeless lmfao
@A S - Consider supply and demand regarding increased demand for limited housing units and increased prices for housing, as well as a labor glut from immigration resulting in lower wages. These two economic dynamics it could be argued result (in a free market with limited capital for construction loans post 2008 global recession) with a higher risk of homelessness. Also in most cases immigrants to the West have access to assistance both public and private not readily available to native citizens. I would think this concept is self-evident and not a cause for derision i.e. your "lmao" comment. I do not discount, drug use, alcoholism and mental.illness contributing to homelessness among the native-born, however.
Thank you prof and good luck.
I have relocated at least 10 times in my 60 years of life. I lived in rooming houses, weekly hotels, with relatives short term until I found an apartment with my name on the lease in my forty years of adulthood. In all that time I have lost jobs due to reasons that were my fault and unforseen circumstances. If you do not have a major alcohol or drug problem , illness and you are able to work at some level a job you should be able to find some place affordable to live even if it is not the best cirsumstances. I have never lived in California, but I have lived in NYC, DC, Atlanta, Florida so I know about high rent and cost living while not making a lot of money. But when I know I am making a little, I have to scrimp and budget living in certain areas of town. I believe it is better to have a apartment on a bad side of town than to live on the streets.
I hope he is doing well now. 11 years later it makes me wonder how he's doing.

Best of luck to him. I know how it is to be homeless...The shelters are actually the LAST best place to go when homeless, in many cases. It is sad in such a rich country, this is going on...
Eric Sartana but a major point is we are no longer a rich country. 22 trillion of debt, corrupt Deep State politicians, international trade agreements that have diluted our job pool, open borders and lack of sovereignty, in California citizens lose 50 cents of every dollar to taxes (gas there now approaching $4/gallon). It's a modern day myth that we are a wealthy nation. I think those coming across the border illegally have some major advantages: free healthcare, easier access to welfare, California supplemental income for immigrants, immunity from prosecution for crimes in sanctuary cities, networking with other illegals to start businesses, gangs, whatever they are into. It's the average traditional American citizen that is really running up against a wall. One estimate purports that 53% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck with zero savings. We are talking American citizens here. Healthcare costs have skyrocketed to ridiculous levels since the introduction of Obamacare. It is truly a frightening world we live in. And sadly, flawed as he is, there appears to be one lone individual sitting in the White House who understands the predictament we're in, but he stands alone, isolated, with no one else in government, even in his own party, willing to lift a finger to help.

I'm from the UK, and homelessness is getting worse here, but it still largely confined to those who fell through the cracks of the system: children in the care system, drug addicts, and people with mental illness and little support; this is bad enough, but the USA however seems to be a completely different situation. Its not like those who are in the categories I mentioned aren't also homeless, but its that I see so many people who had "respected" professions, careers and families also reduced to homelessness. Nobody should be without a roof, but when professors are becoming homeless then seriously - something isn't right.
If he really did just get an RV and travel around in it after his divorce, and is now homeless, it sounds like he just kept going till he had no money left. Which, if true, sounds like he had some problems before the traveling started. So the homelessness wasn't due to some sudden change he couldn't control.
You think a heavy emotional blow is something you can control? Ok, next time you lose a loved one you’re really close to just wave a magic wand to your hurting heart and go off skipping and humming delightfully through the funeral.
