I finally got a tent and am living in the woods as of today. Pic related is my setup
I'll save so much money to invest in crypto.
Cons:

Yeah, but can you really own the lifestyle?

>Standing in line for food for hours
Worth it desu saved a lot of money going to soup kitchens
>Abusing the system
Now that you're homeless you could manipulate the system to get into a better life. I had a friend get free school from the government and a halfway home that he didn't have to pay for while attending school
>Selling drugs
Now that you don't have a home how are the cops supposed to find you? Keep low supply and your safe af.

Don't socialize with other homeless it's a trap, keep to the civilized people.

add extra layers to the tent before winter to have more air between you and the cold. the more layers = the more thermal inertia. if you combine that with a safe heat source which also in effect would have to be used much less because of the layers

the idea is to have an inventory on you that could keep you alive for 3-7 days with rationing stretching to 10 days. the gallon bags are for rationing your hydrated food into so u dont have to eat all of the mres at once.

ah, probably the key ingredient: water maker filter straw. really handy to have these. its a big straw with a water filter good for about 5 gallons of water - u can drink water out of puddles with it and it purifies it as you suck the water in. streams, rivers, etc. even make them integrated into water bottles - have 3 of them in your pack and the waterbottles on the outside your pack.

whatever u do anon, dont tell anyone that knows u at work that u are living in a tent. they will try to shut u down. remember, no one that u wage slave with is really your friend. they are only there to make money, not hang out with u. if u let the cat out the bag, youll get shut down. but watch out for homeless fags tho.
