| 0. Save your money for laundry and storage. 1. Food pantries will provide food. “I have a food emergency.” 2. Call the local homeless shelters, mental health clinics - anywhere that deals with indigent populations. 3. Recognize your bravery for putting ethics over money. 4. Work your way into a low-income housing situation. Many ethical thinkers live this way. 5. Don’t get paranoid or angry. You have dignity. 6. Join a church which is full of intelligent and relaxed people. I recommend Catholicism. 7. If you have to ask for something, ask for it with a smile. People want to help each other. 8. Family sticks together. Sincerely,
A programmer who lived homelessly for years |
