Seems like it. There were a couple of others that were older but had all their hair and although disheveled, they spoke well ( said they were educated) and if in good health, would be definitely very striking. One was actually an out of work actor so it may just be several that are from other states wanting to make it in the movies but didn't and became homeless & dabbled into drugs/alcohol instead cause dreams squashed.
This poor guy is so broken. You can see the hurt in his face. I have watched a lot of invisible people videos and this guy here, seeing his pain is completely heartbreaking. 🥲🥲
I hate that we've created a culture where we "must" put on a brave face because that's the ideal. And you know why we do it? To make others feel comfortable bc that's what we're taught to do. Says who?? F that. People hurt, we stuff it down, we smile & pretend while inside it's crushing our souls. We need to learn to be okay with tears and anger. We needed to learn that hundreds of years ago instead of living by these absurd rules.
@@mariarohmer2374 I absolutely agree with you . As a kid we were raised that crying was a sign of weakness and we were not weak. It’s not that I had parents that were bad or heartless, I just think that’s how they were raised as well. I changed that with my kids though . My kids are allowed to express their emotions, feelings and frustrations. And now my grandkids are open about how they feel. I’m glad I broke the cycle. My kids and grandkids are by no means weak at all but they have learned to express how they feel and to speak us and not keep it bottled up
@@terriprobst4680 That is so beautiful! I love it and it took real determination to break that chain. Not for a second would I see your own as weak. They are in touch and expressive and that's more real and honest than repressing. Yay for you! 💪🏽
The worst thing when ultimately you realize that you have been living with the wrong person ,wasted your time,emotionally exhausted,on top of that when you leave with a broken heart .
IDK a wife wouldn't kick out her husband after long career at the military for no reason also he still wear his wedding ring and he left immediately after she asked for a divorce which implies he did something terrible. that being said he still deserve to live in dignity.
Not heard anything to actually indicate he is a Veteran, other than his claiming to be. And super dilated eyes, slurred words, wanna bet his root problem is drug addiction?
@@matthewc.1194 I have done lots of camera work, they would not be so dilated that all you see is black in that much light. That is the typical dilation of almost total darkness, or under the effects of narcotics. And his speech is definitely slurred. As a real person under the influence, and not what is seen in comedy movies.
So do our boys in blue! Yet they are criticized and crucified daily by the media and civilians. If this was a Cop, Fireman, MP, will you still say/feel the same?
The irony is, that very same land he's staying on, the VA Campus, was actually legally allocated to veterans to live on in the structures that are there... The land was privately owned, but it has been used to house veterans since the Civil War, and the citizens who owned the land have willed it to veterans specifically to help them get on their feet. UCLA is trying to usurp the land to build a baseball stadium...
Country isn't ungrateful, it's people like you are ungrateful who constantly blame the country but refuse to help other human beings. All you care about is being a smartass on the internet for some imaginary points.
I'm homeless in a shelter and society,the private sector,and my family have let me down due to extreme narcissism thus ungratefulness.So it's not just the veterans,its a huge social economic problem as well.
I'm also a disabled veteran who has spent many years in a foxhole in the woods. The way the VA treats homeless veterans, and lies about homelessness rates is DESPICABLE!
Maybe she's not sleeping well. Could be she's worried sick about him, misses him desperately but can't be with him anymore for reasons none of us are made aware of in this 5 minute video.
@@farhankamil9358 Could be spite. Could be she's a terrible person. Could be she's scared shitless of him. We just don't know. What we do know as reasonable adults is that it takes two people to make or break a relationship. I feel badly for both of them. Certainly, it's not my place to judge based on speculation or limited info.
Hope so. Most people judging the homeless are aggressive, ignorant, evil punching down on the weak. It's a great thing to know that some of them will end up in the same situation or will live in fear in holding on to their slave jobs.
He comes across as being very humble, it would serve him and the world better if he was tough and had listened to Dave Ramsey. I advise getting away from big cities. People are attracted to confidence, this guy looks good but shows no confidence.
Ha have you ever helped homeless ? I have let me tell you something they all seem really sweet and really nice you show them where to get help they dont want to , i have had some rip me off ! Dont be fooled by homeless people they are very clever at putting an act on .!
Michael Wilson that’s true for many of them, but you should really take each case on its own. I agree that many of them are drug addicts and big manipulators, but there are a few that are truly humble and broken and you will be able to tell when you offer them a way out.
I'm a vet and I cringe when someone thanks me for my "service". The last time our military fought for freedom was WW2, everything else has been wars for profit and to protect US interests.
He’s new. I remember MY first month homeless - you still actually think it’ll be over soon! He’s still bummed out about his homelessness event - BABY STEPS! He’s military and sane... He WILL survive!
Man this one hit me hard. I feel the hurt in him. Hope he gets that job and a great opportunity. Even though his wife finished him God will redeem him one day.
@@univuniveral9713 You homeless & meditating to reach a higher self? If not, shut the hell up. You obviously don't know shit about what it is to be a higher self, if you're hatefully calling a guy like him greedy for wanting to get back on his own two feet in society.
The wives and husbands who uses the law in a dirty way if I can say, to kick their spouse out knowing they will be homeless, deserve no good out of this world!
You don't know the situation to be so judgmental. He probably beat her or spent all the rent money on drugs. He can't even look at the camera straight in the eye which indicates he's hiding something. Trust me when i say this " women don't leave good men" women hold on to good men for dear life.
Miss Kitty why’s re you commenting on every comment o how we didn’t know the situation. If he so-called abused his wife then why would he be on the streets and not in jail.
@@winning3329 *says to not be judgemental* *proceeds to judge this man* You don't know neither him nor his wife. And to assume all women stay with 'good men' is foolish to say the least. Sit down hypocrite.
I was homeless for about 3 months this year (Fn 2020). Just fell on hard times fast. Had a daughter and wife with me. I was really in some trouble. The VA helped me out to get off the street and stable. Just enough until I could get grounded again. Without the help of the VA I can't imagine where I would be today! Those 3 months were hard. God Bless the VA. Thank you VA!
@@cisko2015 The VA also has a large system of hospitals to provide care for veterans - they aren’t as fast or efficient as private, non-governmental hospitals, but having worked in both I would say the staff and care is as good as that seen in outside hospitals.
I was homeless for 3 months and it shocked me to the core of just how your world can just change very quickly and how you view people relationships and having respect for others.
He is homeless because he is gallant. He has a house, a car, probably a dog. But he left it all behind because he respects his bltch wife’s illegal actions of padlocking the doors. Thats illegal. They should split the property 50/50 between them. Thats veterans for you, full of honor. I hope he finds a way to get a job and get those military benefits rolling. He deserves a second chance.
This broke my heart. This man could have been my son. He had the most genuine smile I’ve seen in a long time. What a nice looking young man. I pray he’s doing better. God be with him. ✝️
It happens to a lot of us. They say "be bold and love again." Happened to me twice now. I don't dream anymore. I just live in my car. Not enough work during this COVID crap. I give up.
No offense but thats why you'll never be one.. wealthy people who give are careful about where their money goes.. you have no idea from a 5 minute video what the real story is.. all you have is the bones (not even all of them) not the meat.. they say there are 3 sides to a story.. his, hers, and the truth which lies somewhere in between.. you're getting 5 minutes of only one side.. it's very nice to want to help all of the people in these videos but it's also extremely naive and irresponsible.. My advice for anyone wanting to help is to volunteer and if you only want to help monetarily then donate to an organization that provides them services (housing, job placement, substance abuse treatment, mental health assistance, education, teaching a trade, therapy, financial planning etc).. The one thing they don't provide that your money does.. drugs and alcohol.. it's sad but it's true.. many people who find themselves in this situation are there at least partially because of substance abuse.. not all but far too many to just be handing out money based on what someone can say in a 5 minute span.. that's naive and irresponsible..
We’re in a country where it’s impossible in America to help people financially. Anything over 1k they will have to pay taxes on which makes it hard on them aswell on you.
The fact that he couldn't tell him his 3 wishes shows how broken he really is. I feel for him. Food and shelter are the least of his problems. We can always fix what's broken on the outside but it's hard as hell to fix what's broken on the inside.
@priveyful I've been through a divorce and it doesnt really matter whos fault it is... It takez two to tango.. That doesn't mean that it doesnt hurt any less... Thanks for your comments.. 😀
@priveyful thats it we dont know... But like i said it takes two to tango.. It doesnt have to b one persons fault or the other you cant put a percentage number on "who's" fault is was.. There will be pain on both sides.. Unless it was my ex... He had no feelings about anything nothing was his fault... The guy juust look so sad and in pain...

Beautiful man. Impossible to imagine what people go through and the strength they find in themselves to push forward. My heart goes out to you James, i hope this will all be just a small part of your history very soon
A veteran should never be homeless! A disgrace that after someone risks their life for his country we look the other way while they live on the streets.
@357MagnumPlinkster Society all of your 21 years cannot ever, ever compare to what he may or may not have gone through, seen or done in service. Show some fucking respect for your fellow serviceman, he shows more humility and respect that you.
Damn dude seeing this guy who fought for his country try to hold back his tears about his situation is about as heartbreaking as it gets. Hope he gets back on his feet soon.
HAHAHA world peace...oh please say that this was sarcasm. The USA are the biggest warmonger in the world and the world would be much better when they spent their money not in the military rather than in helping people like this man.
@@frechesferkel2749 LOL except for almost every country in Africa and Asia, then there's the Germans and French. Stop embarrassing yourself by proving your ignorance.
@Российская Федерация 92 So what? Is it a rule to delete your Twitter account when you get homeless? Or to update the status to: homeless? I mean there is nothing really to see in this profile. Some (rare) retweets, some postings.... What should this proof? p.s. maybe you refer to "actor": Well, try to make money as unknown actor and getting homeless is really no contradiction.
@Российская Федерация 92 It's really not, iv seen this guy he sleeps in his truck, he looks like endless actors same features they all have,, except this guys homeless for real
Homelessness is disturbing and even more disturbing are homeless Vets the men and women that served this country. Heartbreaking I can feel his pain and he is so grateful for the Va
It’s depressing. Most of us are just a few paychecks away from being Homeless. You got the few very Greedy Rich on top, and the rest of us have to struggle with everything.
I've been homeless in my car in the east bay and it's scary as hell...I have never been so down as that and almost gave up. Never look down on the homeless bc you could be there at any moment, like I was
@@incessantyoutuber9318 I'm no longer homeless but my situation isnt my own... yet. I'm grateful to be out of my car as someone with lupus on disability, having my own place is nearly impossible.
Too right. Fighting for one's country isn't an "ordinary day time job" it deserves full support from the government if need be, on their return to civilian life.
@@Jj-gi2uv Jj people go to war for different reasons. No one really understand until they're in it. Sometimes we don't see the consequences until years later. We recruit kids who barely know anything to go out and possibly take a life. We coerce the poor to put on a uniform with promises of money, education, and a career. Publicly, we romanticize war. Privately, the military hides the ugliness. Voters don't inform themselves or only think of their own self interest. It's a complicated issue, but at the end of the day we have to be responsible for our own actions.
This man is a sweetheart and a really nice guy. Unfortunately nice guys finish last. Most men would have said “ok half this house is mine, you stay on your side and I’ll stay on mine.” Legally, he didn’t have to leave. He has rights. This is so sad. The pain and hurt in his face breaks my heart. I pray that he gets on his feet soon 💜.
Sophia Anatolios the amount of very specific “what ifs” you’re willing to go to is incredible. Rarely is it just one persons fault, I never said he’s innocent but you don’t just give up your rights during a divorce unless you’re a good man. Sorry but all I said was that what he did was honorable, but frankly changing the locks isn’t. If she felt in danger and had half a heart she’d have done that (or called the police) and made sure that he was okay too... not homeless. See most ppl wouldn’t want the father of their kids out on the streets in this situation. ESPECIALLY if she thought or knew he had PTSD, is using drugs, or a danger to himself or anyone else. You don’t just abandon someone you make a vow before god to. You don’t sacrifice yourself either but again it’s all just you trying to make up any reason to vilify a guy who clearly did something well beyond anything he HAD to just to please his ex. Sorry but ppl with problems or illnesses aren’t inherently bad, they need more help if anything.
Monika be a companion with someone who loves you and whom you can love till your last breath. That's what is needed in this world...divorces are happening like plague
Divorce is the most heart breaking event you can go through especially if you really don't want it but your partner does................ I hope this man pushes through this troubling time and can pick up the pieces and find a better person to share his life with........... We all deserve HAPPINESS ☺
It breaks my heart...he appears to be a very sweet guy. I sure hope he gets assistance to get on his feet. There are too many Veterans that have given their life for us to be in a position that many are in... God bless them all! 💜
My wife asked me to leave 3 years ago. I tought my life was over and everything was my fault. Now i realised how ungreatful shit she was. Do not give up. Do not cry for anthing. You look young and good life is in front of you.
If you an ounce of humanity in your inner- self you really can see the pain and suffering that the man is going through. And even with the man being totally shook and jittery to the point of being completely traumatized, he keeps a positive attitude with hopes of living a better life, something that any decent human being deserves...
That impressed me as well, additionally he thanked God for the VA and appreciates his blessings in the midst of his trial. God honors that and will restore those who have that type of courage. Looks good for him.
I've watched probably 30-40 of these interviews and this is the first one that got me. Hard to tell if that was sadness over a lost love or regret over bad decision or what.
Good point. Perhaps a combo of many things that can bring a man down to this level. If it is not pure evil somewhere, it is financially broken disasters. Peace.
More like pain, you give so much to someone else just to have them say get out. Then they treat you like you did something wrong, and they wont help you even though you know they easily could,yet they still call you when something happens to them and they need help.My Ex battles me on everything to do with our son, she did the whole time we were married and I finally said ,( Honey life is enough of a battle,I cant fight it and you any longer,you want a divorce you got it )Where do I sign
He still wears the ring and he immediately left the home which implies that he did something bad and he regretted it also he is good looking guy so connect the dots.
Would love to meet James. I would take him out for a good meal and just sit and talk with him. It would be a honor to get to know him more. He seems so genuine and kind. Wish I didn't live 3,000 miles away. I posted this video to fb in order to spread awareness of the homeless issues in this country. Bless you James. I will pray for you.
I am pissed 😡 off too many veterans are homeless the richest country in the world. it’s so hard living on the streets when I was homeless I didn’t have a car couldn’t sleep in the shelters cause of my background I found a place at a train station where I could lay my head I feel so bad now for this veteran
Not sure why being a vet makes you mad. Why are you not mad that he did not stay in the military is he was in a branch? The government pays huge bonuses and gives many benefits to vets. It is rather obscene. Yet many choose to be homeless than continue to serve.
Been a veteran and having seen the devastation to human lives over many years, makes it easer for us to recognize another. Spent 6 months in a military hospital after a landmine incident and seen a lot of broken men.
I don’t understand how people think the guy that takes this videos is only looking to get recognition. He is not one of those you tubers that gives money to homeless people just for views. I’ve never seen him give money to any of these people. He is only here to spread awareness about this major problem.
@@shietcard9649 if you look back through his videos you’ll see that he has in fact given money and gotten help for many. I follow one lady Mandy for quite some time. He really helped her. She got off the streets. Got an apartment. They got her furniture. Etc etc etc. So yes he has not only given his time but his efforts and money as well. God bless.
I agree. The VA should have a bunch of studio apts for vets. I have a vet brother with PTSD who is sleeping in the living room of our family home for the past 5 years... after he got out of the military he burned through all his money quick then had to return home. He is mentally ill and violent... we had to kick him out because of it and he was homeless after he got all his belongings robbed a few times and he got attacked by a meth head we let him back home. Actually, he was attacked at the homeless shelter and because he was "involved in a fight" they kicked him out. Even though he was the one being attacked... totally fucked up.
I know a guy super cool guy that was an I.t tech at a hospital. His wife took everything from him and he was struggling bad for like 5 years or more till the kids were 18 . Thankfully the kids are grown now and he can truly enjoy them and his hard earned money
Don't make assumptions before knowing the whole story. You don't even know whether the man is telling the truth. His eyes have a strange feeling to them.
Alejandro Garcia it’s not about assumptions... but equality. Why he’s on the streets when the ex wife have HIS house. Normally they sell the house and divide the money between them. Why he have to sleep on the streets when she’s sleeping comfortably in a bed. Like wtf.
Exhaustion is beginning to set in exhaustion will deteriorate even the strongest mind I'll pray for him and all the others thank you for keeping us informed of this tragedy unfolding in California
Wow what a smile!!! You have some great qualities. Remember, "you aren't a homeless man" you are a man with an amazing smile and more who happens to be without a dwelling at the moment. Know will look back on these times some day. When your alone, from the heart ask the universe for help because you can't do it alone, and see what happens! I was amazed!!!
James, I wish nothing but the best for you going forward. What a fine , handsome man, I hope he gets all the help he needs and more. God bless you James.
He has movie-star looks. I hope he gets back on his feet. This can happen to anybody. Such an eyeopener. Everybody should watch these videos and the skid row videos too. Understanding is everything.
I wore the uniform for nearly 30 years, have been on so many deployments I can’t even count them all unless I sit down and really think about it. These were some of the most dangerous and awful places one can even imagine. Somehow, I made it through. But it was more than luck, it was hard work and sheer determination. When I see a guy like this, who can’t even take care of himself, why would a woman even want someone like that? He appears able bodied and able minded, what is going on here? There must be more to the story and they never go into the whole story, because that might destroy the narrative, which is for us to feel sorry for him. Spousal abuse? Drug use? Police record? Does he even have an honorable discharge? Many homeless vets do not. Did he even serve in a combat zone? Many vets were weekend warriors who never left the states and then walked away from duty, and the national guard just takes them off the rolls administratively. They then walk around saying they are veterans which I find really offensive considering the decades of hard service that I did. Anyway, these interviews need to be much more in depth. They never ask the hard questions, they never get to the root of the problem. It’s just fluff intended to make us all feel sorry for them. Sorry, I need more in order to make a proper decision. Kathy, I appreciate your attitude on all of this, but just understand that when you are talking about veterans, it’s much more nuanced than people think.
they never served their country, they served the corrupt government and the private corporations that are hand in hand with the military and the government. this is the thing . it's sad. nobody has attacked america, so how do you serve your country when you are fighting a war for oil or for private interests? that's sad and so many people get forced into it because they do not have a place to live, a job , or simply because they love their country. The country is no longer the people's , it is the government's and corporations' . Peace out.
Your work is amazing. Thank you for bringing these beautiful faces to us. I wish no one fell behind. I wish for no more struggle. I wish for no more pain.
He seemed so strong and positive and then at the end was the first on Invisible People who couldn't even give their 3 wishes, that absolutely devastated me

@@GUITARTIME2024 divorces are traumatic, this is all real fresh... who knows all the details.. I can't judge. Actually his wife can't make him leave or change the locks legally. She needed to give him at least 30 days, he has rights... I hope someone tells him this...
@@mindovermatter2day you are assuming he's telling the truth. I tell ya, the storytelling you hear from homeless people is often exaggerated. they downplay thier addiction and/or mental issues (very common in homeless), and always have an ex who did them wrong, evil mom, crappy employer, or some long involved story of oppression, etc. (you are right, the wife that "throws them out" is already legally questionable). there are tons of homeless services in LA, trust me. handsome boy ain't starving.
@Klaa2 what????? Im not sure who you are directing that comment towards but its an aweful thing to communicate in any form towards anyone. Here's sending you sympathy for having such a dark heart that you felt you needed to communicate that to anyone... 🖤🗣
Jez.. watching these videos really makes you appreciate the life you have, and seeing how you should value the small things more. I wish the best for them
Soldiers are just people, and men at the end of the day. Trained to suppress their emotions. They suffer a lot. I met a guy playing Rust, was in Light Infantry and had been deployed. He enjoyed playing the game as I think it took his mind off things, farming resources etc.
A fine and noble man. What a great shame and travesty of our world to have good men like this living not only on the streets but lonely and devoid of human empathy for the most part. This man and so many homeless deserve nothing but empathy and love from all they encounter.
I know that look when he asked about his three wishes...I don't want to do this living thing anymore. But you can't say that because that is the end of the line. He's holding on.

The irony is, that very same land he's staying on, the VA Campus, was actually legally allocated to veterans to live on in the structures that are there... The land was privately owned, but it has been used to house veterans since the Civil War, and the citizens who owned the land have willed it to veterans specifically to help them get on their feet. UCLA is trying to usurp the land to build a baseball stadium...

I'm homeless in a shelter and society,the private sector,and my family have let me down due to extreme narcissism thus ungratefulness.So it's not just the veterans,its a huge social economic problem as well.
So sad and so true! 💔😭

His wife had a gem in her hands. How can she sleep at night knowing he is outside there?
Maybe she's not sleeping well. Could be she's worried sick about him, misses him desperately but can't be with him anymore for reasons none of us are made aware of in this 5 minute video.

I was homeless for about 3 months this year (Fn 2020). Just fell on hard times fast. Had a daughter and wife with me. I was really in some trouble. The VA helped me out to get off the street and stable. Just enough until I could get grounded again. Without the help of the VA I can't imagine where I would be today! Those 3 months were hard.

He is homeless because he is gallant. He has a house, a car, probably a dog. But he left it all behind because he respects his bltch wife’s illegal actions of padlocking the doors. Thats illegal. They should split the property 50/50 between them. Thats veterans for you, full of honor. I hope he finds a way to get a job and get those military benefits rolling. He deserves a second chance.

How True, if you have a Vast amount of wealth, it is nice to be able to help people, that really need it,
No offense but thats why you'll never be one.. wealthy people who give are careful about where their money goes.. you have no idea from a 5 minute video what the real story is.. all you have is the bones (not even all of them) not the meat.. they say there are 3 sides to a story.. his, hers, and the truth which lies somewhere in between.. you're getting 5 minutes of only one side.. it's very nice to want to help all of the people in these videos but it's also extremely naive and irresponsible..
My advice for anyone wanting to help is to volunteer and if you only want to help monetarily then donate to an organization that provides them services (housing, job placement, substance abuse treatment, mental health assistance, education, teaching a trade, therapy, financial planning etc).. The one thing they don't provide that your money does.. drugs and alcohol.. it's sad but it's true.. many people who find themselves in this situation are there at least partially because of substance abuse.. not all but far too many to just be handing out money based on what someone can say in a 5 minute span.. that's naive and irresponsible..
Same
We’re in a country where it’s impossible in America to help people financially. Anything over 1k they will have to pay taxes on which makes it hard on them aswell on you.
Money can change people. Hope it doesnt change us
The fact that he couldn't tell him his 3 wishes shows how broken he really is. I feel for him. Food and shelter are the least of his problems. We can always fix what's broken on the outside but it's hard as hell to fix what's broken on the inside.

Too right. Fighting for one's country isn't an "ordinary day time job" it deserves full support from the government if need be, on their return to civilian life.
Depends on what war they fought and how many innocent women and children they killed.
Jj 3 hot meals a day a warm bed at night the military sounds good you might have to kill a few people but who cares it’s legal
@@Jj-gi2uv Jj people go to war for different reasons. No one really understand until they're in it. Sometimes we don't see the consequences until years later. We recruit kids who barely know anything to go out and possibly take a life. We coerce the poor to put on a uniform with promises of money, education, and a career. Publicly, we romanticize war. Privately, the military hides the ugliness. Voters don't inform themselves or only think of their own self interest. It's a complicated issue, but at the end of the day we have to be responsible for our own actions.

This man is a sweetheart and a really nice guy. Unfortunately nice guys finish last.

The pain and hurt in his face breaks my heart. I pray that he gets on his feet soon 💜.
You sounds like you know him. How do you know he's a sweetheart? A really nice guy?
the fact he gave up all his rights for his wife is a good start.
@Sophia Anatolios Maybe...we have no way of knowing the particulars of this situation. It's still sad. Ahh...life.
LadyTea you’re right! He didn’t have to leave but he didn’t want her to feel any inconvenience or pain. I hope this guy gets work soon.
Sophia Anatolios the amount of very specific “what ifs” you’re willing to go to is incredible. Rarely is it just one persons fault, I never said he’s innocent but you don’t just give up your rights during a divorce unless you’re a good man. Sorry but all I said was that what he did was honorable, but frankly changing the locks isn’t. If she felt in danger and had half a heart she’d have done that (or called the police) and made sure that he was okay too... not homeless. See most ppl wouldn’t want the father of their kids out on the streets in this situation. ESPECIALLY if she thought or knew he had PTSD, is using drugs, or a danger to himself or anyone else. You don’t just abandon someone you make a vow before god to. You don’t sacrifice yourself either but again it’s all just you trying to make up any reason to vilify a guy who clearly did something well beyond anything he HAD to just to please his ex. Sorry but ppl with problems or illnesses aren’t inherently bad, they need more help if anything.

The interview just broke my heart. Absolutely broke my heart. Going to keep praying for this man, and his family.
If you an ounce of humanity in your inner- self you really can see the pain and suffering that the man is going through. And even with the man being totally shook and jittery to the point of being completely traumatized, he keeps a positive attitude with hopes of living a better life, something that any decent human being deserves...
Right on. Well said.
That impressed me as well, additionally he thanked God for the VA and appreciates his blessings in the midst of his trial. God honors that and will restore those who have that type of courage. Looks good for him.
She probably wanted the divorce because of the PCP... or whatever heroin you are on or meth.
I've watched probably 30-40 of these interviews and this is the first one that got me. Hard to tell if that was sadness over a lost love or regret over bad decision or what.
Good point. Perhaps a combo of many things that can bring a man down to this level. If it is not pure evil somewhere, it is financially broken disasters. Peace.
More like pain, you give so much to someone else just to have them say get out. Then they treat you like you did something wrong, and they wont help you even though you know they easily could,yet they still call you when something happens to them and they need help.My Ex battles me on everything to do with our son, she did the whole time we were married and I finally said ,( Honey life is enough of a battle,I cant fight it and you any longer,you want a divorce you got it )Where do I sign

We are not the richest unless you account for the Military assets. Otherwise, we are just like any other.
Don't feel sorry for us homeless veterans buddy nobody cares
Not sure why being a vet makes you mad. Why are you not mad that he did not stay in the military is he was in a branch? The government pays huge bonuses and gives many benefits to vets. It is rather obscene. Yet many choose to be homeless than continue to serve.
@Jan T. move.

@@shietcard9649 if you look back through his videos you’ll see that he has in fact given money and gotten help for many. I follow one lady Mandy for quite some time. He really helped her.

Vets should get a studio apartment at govt expense if they become homeless. Period. They are entitled to yhat benefit..Period.
Yes
I agree. The VA should have a bunch of studio apts for vets. I have a vet brother with PTSD who is sleeping in the living room of our family home for the past 5 years... after he got out of the military he burned through all his money quick then had to return home. He is mentally ill and violent... we had to kick him out because of it and he was homeless after he got all his belongings robbed a few times and he got attacked by a meth head we let him back home. Actually, he was attacked at the homeless shelter and because he was "involved in a fight" they kicked him out. Even though he was the one being attacked... totally fucked up.
Yeah Trump put the Vets up in some of your towers but he won't
Trump wants to privatize the VA so this will never happen.
Republicans would not agree to this bill. They are only pro-life until they exist the womb then your own your own.
It’s so sad to see so many veterans as homeless people. They fought for your country and look how they get paid.

Don't make assumptions before knowing the whole story. You don't even know whether the man is telling the truth. His eyes have a strange feeling to them.

but equality. Why he’s on the streets when the ex wife have HIS house.
Normally they sell the house and divide the money between them.
Why he have to sleep on the streets when she’s sleeping comfortably in a bed.

I wore the uniform for nearly 30 years, have been on so many deployments I can’t even count them all unless I sit down and really think about it. These were some of the most dangerous and awful places one can even imagine. Somehow, I made it through. But it was more than luck, it was hard work and sheer determination. When I see a guy like this, who can’t even take care of himself, why would a woman even want someone like that? He appears able bodied and able minded, what is going on here? There must be more to the story and they never go into the whole story, because that might destroy the narrative, which is for us to feel sorry for him. Spousal abuse? Drug use? Police record? Does he even have an honorable discharge? Many homeless vets do not. Did he even serve in a combat zone? Many vets were weekend warriors who never left the states and then walked away from duty, and the national guard just takes them off the rolls administratively. They then walk around saying they are veterans which I find really offensive considering the decades of hard service that I did.
Anyway, these interviews need to be much more in depth. They never ask the hard questions, they never get to the root of the problem. It’s just fluff intended to make us all feel sorry for them. Sorry, I need more in order to make a proper decision. Kathy, I appreciate your attitude on all of this, but just understand that when you are talking about veterans, it’s much more nuanced than people think.
they never served their country, they served the corrupt government and the private corporations that are hand in hand with the military and the government. this is the thing . it's sad. nobody has attacked america, so how do you serve your country when you are fighting a war for oil or for private interests? that's sad and so many people get forced into it because they do not have a place to live, a job , or simply because they love their country. The country is no longer the people's , it is the government's and corporations' . Peace out.
@katherine harvey it's really sad. indieed.
@@ubon11 So he needs to go full Rambo and eat bullets for breakfast before someone is a veteran is what you're saying..
Yep yet USA gives Israel billions of dollars a year, and Israel is wealthy enough to have their own space program.
Your work is amazing. Thank you for bringing these beautiful faces to us. I wish no one fell behind. I wish for no more struggle. I wish for no more pain.
He seemed so strong and positive and then at the end was the first on Invisible People who couldn't even give their 3 wishes, that absolutely devastated me
It wasnt easy to watch this interview, me my self went through same situation and end upp sleeping in the parks, it took me 3 years to build a living again and start from begining, it was a pure hell. I undrestand this dude from deep of my heart and hope him best ❤️❤️
Hope you're doing well! 💪
👍👍👍 bro where r u from ?I mean which country ?
I see heartless people commenting here. Why are you like this humanity? I hope he does well now. Greetings from Germany
Dear Miran: yes, some comments are very cruel. Your comment is empathic. I also hope that he is doing better today. Grüße aus dem Schwarzwald
Your momma
Looks like from Turkey
@@Nemo67577 same here nemo, have a nice journey in this beautiful yet sad road called life
@@mazniqtbobur3800 look, one of this guys you were talking about, @miran
Heartbreaking. The world we all have been born into is a very broken one. I hope this lovely man is doing better. He seems like a kind-hearted soul and is also very handsome.
He is at his most vulnerable and traumatized... He is intelligent and well spoken. He will get back on his feet.
Dawn, ask yourself why this handsome guy is not in a chick's apartment right now. He has major issues.
@@GUITARTIME2024 divorces are traumatic, this is all real fresh... who knows all the details.. I can't judge. Actually his wife can't make him leave or change the locks legally. She needed to give him at least 30 days, he has rights... I hope someone tells him this...
@@mindovermatter2day you are assuming he's telling the truth. I tell ya, the storytelling you hear from homeless people is often exaggerated. they downplay thier addiction and/or mental issues (very common in homeless), and always have an ex who did them wrong, evil mom, crappy employer, or some long involved story of oppression, etc. (you are right, the wife that "throws them out" is already legally questionable). there are tons of homeless services in LA, trust me. handsome boy ain't starving.
@Klaa2 what????? Im not sure who you are directing that comment towards but its an aweful thing to communicate in any form towards anyone. Here's sending you sympathy for having such a dark heart that you felt you needed to communicate that to anyone... 🖤🗣
Jez.. watching these videos really makes you appreciate the life you have, and seeing how you should value the small things more. I wish the best for them
To see a soldier cried. It is painful. He must have suffered much.
Soldiers are just people, and men at the end of the day. Trained to suppress their emotions. They suffer a lot. I met a guy playing Rust, was in Light Infantry and had been deployed. He enjoyed playing the game as I think it took his mind off things, farming resources etc.
U stupid
Bless you sir. I was homeless for 7 months last year. I have a place now. I wish you the best. And thank you for your service.
Seems like a very nice guy - hope things get better. I think he's on meds for his PTSD. He seems so upset. Glad he's in touch with VA for help❣️
A fine and noble man. What a great shame and travesty of our world to have good men like this living not only on the streets but lonely and devoid of human empathy for the most part. This man and so many homeless deserve nothing but empathy and love from all they encounter.
I know that look when he asked about his three wishes...I don't want to do this living thing anymore. But you can't say that because that is the end of the line. He's holding on.
He looks good,seems to have a good outlook,sad,especially a veteran would be homeless!
I wish they would set you up a go fund me account. God bless you and thank you for your service.
Through the years, I think of John!
Hope he has found happiness again and hopefully a new lady in his life, he's a handsome man...
