If you were Homeless

The season to be merry is coming around the corner. Lately, I've been thinking about the people who are unfortunate enough to have no home or caring family. I give what I have in my pocket to those who ask me for a handout. Every time I offer them a few bucks, I'm reminded of how lucky I am. I start wondering where I'll be in the next couple decades.
I have a few jobs I can fall back on if my original goal to get a career ends up being impossible to achieve. However, nothing is set in stone. The economy is getting worse every year. I have to take into consideration the debt I've accumulated due to dropping out of college twice. The next candidates for the presidency is another factor. He/She may end up raping the health care policy among other things.
There's also my state of mind. I'm a loner which leaves me at a disadvantage. If I continue down that path, the future will be very grim. In other words, I think like a homeless person.
If I were actually homeless, I'd try to strengthen my social bond with others, learn where to go for free food and shelter, and most importantly educate myself via the library. I know being homeless isn't as simple as what I described, but you got to start somewhere.
Question: What would you do if you were homeless?
Handicaps:
-Your family and friends has disowned you
-Your credit score is terrible (So getting a loan for school/business is unlikely)
-No one is hiring in your area
-You have no talent to attract pedestrians.

For me. I would try as hard as I can to find a job or anything that could bring me money. after having an amount that could make me continue my life a bit easier then I would try to educate myself in any way possible. after all that is done I will try to get a better job then see what I would be able to do about the homeless part of my life.

Picking up bottles is my work & pay, the dumpters behind a buffet restaurant would be my meals, and the public park would be my home.

I've been there, Finny.
And all I can say is- hey, fuck it. What happens happens. Nothing can dampen my spirits.
I salvaged myself treeplanting. Put the pedal to the metal and scrounged up 12K in three months.

Thats the same attitude I have. In fact, I work best when I'm under pressure. I could probably think up some legal ways to make money. Also, I really hope Finny isn't my new nick name. >_<""

If I had those handicaps when I left home I would have died...sincerly.
But if this is the case then I would sleep under a park bench (yeah, under, I'm not sleeping over steel again) and then try to get money somehow (hell, I would steel, thats what make people steel, lack of money) even in a violent way I WANT TO LIVE!

I would travel the country side by train car and appreciate all the little things nature has to give, something I wish I can do now but don't have the time. I say live life to the fullest.

i should just die
Being homeless is where I can see I'm going.
When that time comes, I'll just struggle and beg on the streets or something, walking around at night and sleeping on park benches. No change of clothes.
Having little or no money per day, I'll have no food.
Having no food is also having no water.
And I'll die.
While nobody gives a shit.
The most happy way to die.

Try crime as a carrier if that doesn't turn out good , well you have jail so i guess its a win win thing.

Answer based on your handicaps:If I couldnt find some "Zen" community where I can get back on my feet OR manage to start a farm hobo style in the middle of nowhere, or start a homeless community system while simultaneously trying to start a farming business with said community, then Id probably just go on a mad killing spree & never stop OR try to cover my tracks in the hopes that someone will come and kill me.

I don't believe that no-place-is-hiring, it depends on how willing a person is, in order to get a home, and how far they will go to work for this. Except if you have any disabilities.
Anyways, continuing with the game...
If I'm homeless and...
-My family and friends has disowned me
-My credit score is terrible (So getting a loan for school/business is unlikely)
-No one is hiring in my area
-I have no talent to attract pedestrians... And if I can't even do that with my life depends on it, then,
Might as well end it myself. TYVM.
