I admire you for what you endured, Granny. Hopefully it will never be that bad, again.
It is that bad already for so many people.
We do not realize what it is to be homeless or how many people are homeless today.
I had a close call, when I got sick and could not work, before I could sell my place and have an income to live on, in another old mobile that I owned.
It is easy to loose it all, just do not pay your property taxes.
I listen to the San Diego Police scanner, the homeless people are now living in the same area that we did, when we came to California, the river bottom, at the south end of Linda Vista Road.
The police have many calls a day to incidents involving the homeless, they sleep on the streets, under bushes and in your car if you leave it unlocked.
So many in America, live on credit cards and have no real worth, even though they are dressed to the hilt and drive a new car.
It is easy to hit the bottom, and harder yet to get up again.
I hope that you never know that world and I do not want to know it either, I worked hard all my life, to stay away from it.
We are not that far from a full depression now, watch the price of gold, the higher it goes, the less your dollar is worth, it is a good gage of the real value of our money.
