She needs to park in front of Starbucks. Free facilities, no questions asked.

we’ve always had such folks. and many of them have been...quite nice and cause little trouble... try to live without hurting or disturbing anyone else

but nowadays there are so many mental cases and crack addicts and winos and bums....all over the cities and even countryside was filling up with them the last 7 or 8 years...

some very difficult situations, not all anywhere as pleasant or apparently sane as the lady in this video

I live in a 2-bedroom apartment plus pay gas and electric, combined cable, phone and internet, and spend $800 or less. Not sure where she has her car parked, but she needs to move to a different part of the country.

I have seen tons of these people camped out in the desert from Quartzsite down to Yuma. Some on the California side of the border. When the Summer heat comes they head North.

I experienced living in my car for 3 days. It was Summer and I was miserable. I actually had a large amount of money coming but until I got to my parents house I was very nearly broke.

When I got to around 22 miles from home, I was totally broke and nearly out of gas. I phoned Daddy and he met me half way with a can of gas.

A few days later I got a check for $8,800 and it sure was appreciated.

I could have stopped at various kin folks and got help but just thought it would be interesting to see if I could make it by myself.

Shipping containers are pretty nice to live in if you can built them right

Yeah well let the fed, state, SSI, Medicare, state pension fund, state pension insurance, healthcare, eye and dental deductions all take their share out of a paycheck and I don’t have much more....After working all month.

I’ve often joked that I have slept in the parking lots of the most expensive hotels in the country.

Having just spent a week in the Time Square Mariot Marquis, I can spend a few weeks in Europe for less including crossing the pond costs.

The guy in the video (Bob) is a dope smoking hippie who makes a living doing these videos of how to lie, cheat and steal your way though life. He has a follower that goes by Carolyn’s RV life on YT, a Berkley feminist. Carolyn hasn’t shaved her underarms in years. Just your average unwashed liberals.

I’m still waiting for the $800/ houseboat. For some reason, always wanted to live on a houseboat.

If I'm going to live out of a "car" it'll be one like this:

[RckyRaCoCo]

Watch a couple minutes of THIS one...

Then be sure to watch(cough) somewhat of a PUPPET version.

Mind you, the resemblance is strictly a coincidence.

I hear some of these folks are raking in YouTube/Patreon/PayPal/other cash for their..."content".

We’ve got one of those in our neighborhood. Lives in a late 90’s Lincoln, uses the local park latrines. I always figured she was just cashing in a SS check and keeping the car alive with it. I mean, it’s a Ford...

Next thing you know they’ll be demanding AutoCare.

I’ve taught my kids the fine art of sleeping in rest areas.

I got in a little trouble at work for sleeping in my car on a business trip. I had to be somewhere about 5 hours away by 8am but couldn’t leave home till 9pm the night before.

At about 1:30 AM, I was tired but figured if I got a hotel room, I’d be awake and it would take an hour to fall asleep, rather than pulling into a parking lot and snoring in five minutes.

The “safety” people fond out and didn’t like that too much. I didn’t care.

I am in southern California. At Pavilions I saw a old white haired guy living in his car for at least 3 years. Same spot in the lot. He had 2 plastic storage containers on the roof of his car. He was in the car when it was 110 degree temp in the summer. You know it had to be even higher inside the car and below 40 degree in the winter. He disappeared earlier this year. Dead or told to move on? I would think he would be able to get SSI which is about $700/month. Quite a large sum saved over the years.
