Download or read book HOMELESS SURVIVAL GUIDE written by DYLON LAWRENCE and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE BEST ILLUSTRATED GUIDE ON HOW TO SURVIVE WHILE BEING HOMELESS! What exactly is being homeless? What is a home? Is shelter a home? Is a structure a home? If you are renting a structure to stay in, are you homeless? If you have a thirty-year mortgage on a house, are you homeless? Do you own a house? Do you own some type of shelter? Do you own the land that your house sits upon? If you miss a payment, are you homeless These are questions that flow through the minds of many people every day. Homelessness is a very complicated subject. But the reality is, homelessness is a mindset. For me, home is where the heart is. For me, a home can be a tent, camper, car, trailer, apartment, house, mansion, castle or anything that provides shelter. There is no right way nor wrong way to have a home. I've created this book as a helpful guide for those who may find themselves amongst the path less traveled. This book contains many great hacks, hints, options, and ways to make the most out of everything.

Book Synopsis Homeless Survival Guide by : Nonstop Internet Staff

Book excerpt: Many middle-class Americans are only a missed paycheck, an unpredictable injury or illness, or a pink slip away from being homeless. The common saying is all too true: ?There but for the grace of God, go I.?Are you prepared for the possibility of living in the streets? Will you be able to feed your family? Would you be able to survive so you have a shot at bouncing back to middle class?Until now, all books on the subject of homelessness deal with social injustice, deficiencies in public policy, psychology, sociology and history. There is no practical instruction on how to survive the street life.This is a practical how-to guide based on actual experiences of homeless people on how to survive the daily rigors of the street -- how to secure shelter, food, security, transportation, healthcare and all necessities of homeless life.This is not a sterile academic document but represents the true experiences of people who are still trying to survive the rigors of the streets. And unfortunately, it also represents the input of those who are losing the survival battlefield of the streets --- with the prospective casualties being their lives or their sanity.To produce this guide, our staff visited the mean streets of Los Angeles and Hollywood to interview the homeless. We have obtained first hand experiences of the unfortunate souls who live this sad life. From them, we obtained advice on what it takes to survive the daily challenges facing the homeless.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brianna Karp entered the workforce at age ten, supporting her mother and sister throughout her teen years in Southern California. Although her young life was scarred by violence and abuse, Karp stayed focused on her dream of a steady job and a home of her own. By age twenty-two her dream became reality. Karp loved her job as an executive assistant and signed the lease on a tiny cottage near the beach. And then the Great Recession hit. Karp, like millions of others, lost her job. In the six months between the day she was laid off and the day she was forced out onto the street, Karp scrambled for temp work and filed hundreds of job applications, only to find all doors closed. When she inherited a thirty-foot travel trailer after her father's suicide, Karp parked it in a Walmart parking lot and began to blog about her search for work and a way back.

Book Synopsis Down and Out in Paris and London by : George Orwell
Download or read book Down and Out in Paris and London written by George Orwell and published by A G Printing & Publishing. This book was released on 2024-07-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There were eccentric characters in the hotel. The Paris slums are a gathering-place for eccentric people—people who have fallen into solitary, half-mad grooves of life and given up trying to be normal or decent. Poverty frees them from ordinary standards of behaviour, just as money frees people from work. Some of the lodgers in our hotel lived lives that were curious beyond words. There were the Rougiers, for instance, an old, ragged, dwarfish couple who plied an extraordinary trade. They used to sell postcards on the Boulevard St Michel. The curious thing was that the postcards were sold in sealed packets as pornographic ones, but were actually photographs of chateaux on the Loire; the buyers did not discover this till too late, and of course never complained. The Rougiers earned about a hundred francs a week, and by strict economy managed to be always half starved and half drunk. The filth of their room was such that one could smell it on the floor below. According to Madame F., neither of the Rougiers had taken off their clothes for four years.
Book Synopsis Homeless Not Hopeless by : Edna Molina-Jackson
Download or read book Homeless Not Hopeless written by Edna Molina-Jackson and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2008-08-28 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of moving toward a national policy to end homelessness is crucial. In this striking examination of the roles that homeless people and the U.S. government play in causing and curtailing the escalating phenomena of homelessness, Edna Molina-Jackson asserts that there is a great need to alter the socio-economic structures that generate extreme and entrenched forms of poverty that lead to homelessness. Homeless Not Hopeless explores the role social networks play in the daily survival of homeless Latino and African American men. Using a qualitative research design, author Molina-Jackson observes how these men initiate, participate in, and maintain social networks and how these networks function. The findings support a more empowering view of homeless men as active, rational, and competent actors engaged in negotiating their social world. Members rely on social networks composed of a hierarchy of casual and intimate affiliations. The networks of Americanized Latinos and African Americans facilitate their integration into a subculture of street life, while those of recent-immigrant Latinos revolve around their struggles to find work, avoid deportation, and enlist the support of paisanos.

Book Synopsis Wasteland (Scorched Earth) by : Guido Elias R. Contino
Download or read book Wasteland (Scorched Earth) written by Guido Elias R. Contino and published by Glucksmann Books. This book was released on 2023-05-03 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life on the streets is very hard. Between 2016 and 2017, I spent an entire year as a homeless person on the streets of Rome. This short manual, or guide, is a more or less detailed account of the experiences I had during this time and the "skills" I learned there to survive in a hostile and sometimes ruthless environment, where dangers are always lurking around the corner and present themselves whenever you least expect them. I hope it will come in handy both as a "handbook" for those who in the course of their existence should find themselves having to walk this sad and dangerous path; and for those who want to understand what it really means to live on the streets in the 21st century. This is not an official handbook or guide, like a programming manual or one on Army tactical warfare. It has a personal slant and is somewhere between an account of my experiences and a list of practical, common sense advice that would be useful to keep in mind if you find yourself in that sad condition of life. It is not a list of addresses or emergency phone numbers (which though is provided at the end of the guide) when an attempt to share what I learned during that long year spent in Rome in 2017. Hence my idea to publish it in three languages (English, German, and Italian), so that it may also be useful to a broader, international audience, as I did previously with my essay "The Yoke." Undoubtedly the "street" is also a school of life, but it is a hard school, sad and from which one often never returns to normal life, as it is easy to be sucked into what I would like to define as a parallel dimension of existence that beyond a certain threshold no longer has any connection with the "normal" world. It is a dimension in which I, at times, was also happy, if I may use this term, in that I was relieved of the burden of bourgeois existence, made up of debts, bills to pay and commitments to fulfill, ending up even seeing glimmers of a more authentic existence, thus confirming the Gospel teaching on poverty and simplicity. I, on the way, was at times "freed" from my slavery to money and success, and saw things in a different light that made me feel freer than I do now in my daily life as a writer and translator. Having said that, I don't want to make here either an apologia for poverty or a suggestion to undertake this life because it is not chosen, but imposed by chance and often by misfortune, and of course I am careful not to say that it is a life like any other or better. Absolutely not. Nor do I think I will ever return to it, as that would be profoundly wrong and immoral. Those who can, have the right and the duty to do what is possible to climb the slope and return to the world of men, but this does not mean that even those who lead the nomadic and stray life of the homeless out of sad necessity, among a thousand hardships, deprivations and dangers, do not also have the opportunity to be, if not happy, at least perhaps somewhere and at some time truly free.
Book Synopsis The Homeless Entrepreneur by : Becky Blanton
Download or read book The Homeless Entrepreneur written by Becky Blanton and published by Becky Blanton. This book was released on 2015-11-16 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you're homeless you don't have to get a job - you can start a business and make twice what most jobs pay you. It's not a get-rich-quick scheme. It will take work, but millions have done it. This book gives you the basic steps, resources, and inspiration you need to start a business. It's packed with information anyone can use, but it's targeted to those with little to no money. The author was homeless for more than a year and used many of these suggestions to make/earn money herself, so she knows they work. Instead of giving the homeless money, hand them a copy of this book and $5 seed money. Step back and see what happens.
Download or read book A Homeless Panic written by James Lough and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Homeless Panic: The Homeless Experience in America A gripping and powerful story about survival on the streets. This is a true account, in descriptive and sometimes graphic detail, of what it was like to survive homelessness. It is the story of one persons struggle to come to terms with what can only be described as a real-life disaster. More than just a good read, A Homeless Panic provides a profound and moving account of what its like to be homeless in America. Our society doesnt look favorably on homelessness and doesnt understand the problem. Even though the United States is the wealthiest nation on earth, we have been unable to resolve the growing problem of homelessness. This book can help bring a better understanding between the general public and the homeless. The author delves into the complex realities of homelessness to paint a compelling picture of individuals living on the street and of their struggles for daily survival. All of them are trying to make the best they can of a desperate situation. This book presents an honest look at their foibles, their values, and their humanity.
