      good thing you have a van I lived in a station wagon for a few years best times of my life wishing you the best man. to rent a 1 bedroom shack nowadays will run you about 2,600 a month you would just be working to pay rent. I would take a shower with a 1 gallon milk jug with a pair of swim shorts on and wash my dry rite cloths in a bathroom sink they dry in about 2 hours. I enjoyed the lifestyle if I was not a old man I would be doing it right now. all my money goes to rent and food and I just struggle to survive.👍

      Get out of Cali and go to a better area.
      14 years ago I was homeless in Fla, but I worked, and found a great side hustle buying and selling things on craigslist.
      Saved 160K in 2 years, bought a 100K house (that is now worth 250), and started a small buisness that is still jamin in the lithium ion battery biz.

      Cali has really become a place for people with high paying stable jobs, and The further you get away from high pay or stability, the more you should consider living in another state. If you're barely scraping by in California, you might actually be able to get somewhere... almost anywhere else.

    To Newsom: You want to see results, build affordable housing and allow people to work despite their living conditions. You just can't force counties to do anything and deny counties funding when the Homeless don't have options that aren't crowded, they do have proper programs to be housed, or feel unsafe. Think and do something on your end before you declare a personal war on the Homeless.

    The problem is that cities have not used the money that they have been given to create affordable housing. Newsom needs to clarify the message. Stop blaming the homeless this problem. The problem has to do with our elected representatives keeping the money that has been given to them instead of spending it on the development of long term housing solutions for people who do not have access to financial resources.
