Staying in abandoned builds etc ....eating at soup kitchens etc....Selling blood for smokes.Taking baths at truck stops etc. Going to YWCA etc. getting hand me down cloths that I was very grateful to get. EMPTY BELLY & EMPTY pockets and no home Are the worst... And then, there are THE people that JUST want to use you any.... I DO MEAN{ ANY }WAY THEY CAN... NO WAY TO GO!!!!! It was a teaching/ learning lesson in my life one I will never forget. Thanks : ) Please ! reconsider any thoughts on this matter ....To all that read this... I was one of the lucky ones

No one in their right mind would EVER consider a life as a homeless person if he has other means.

I think it could be great if you meant "homeless" as in choosing not to have a residence, but if you meant being thrown out of your home with family responsibilities and nowhere else to go then that wouldn't be so great.
I've always thought it could be good if I chose that way to live because I could travel from here to there looking for small jobs to keep me going but without the resposibilities of a mortgage, taxes, etc......

My initial reaction is to answer "no" but I guess saving up to go travelling without a fixed abode and then staying in hostels would count as a homeless life (or sorts) so I'd say yes, I suppose I have.

How could anybody not see the appeal of crapping in alleyways, being covered in lice and fleas, and going hungry, cold and without a roof, and hanging out with a bunch of druggies, alcoholics and insane people?
It's an ideal lifestyle. Who could resist?

Strange question but yes I have. I thouhgt that I was the only one that thought it might be cool to ride the rails and beg for money. Live off the land so to speak.

At the surface it may seem quite free but it must be a horrible existance for most people.

no.. having a homeless life is like having no life... having bo one to cared for and no one who cared for you is non sense.. life is all about loving... and making someone's life worthwhile by making them smile

...yes.
the concept of no bills, no responsibility, no b*st*r*s wanting to take everything away from you sounds like fun.
...but then there is the other side.
no warmth / heat / security & the things that leech of you are actual parasites, not just lawyers & creditors.
I like baths too much to be a bum.
