Advantages of Homelessness

I would miss my gadgets, my warm PRIVATE showers, my security, my private area (home), my clean wife, my bed, etc., etc.

Of course, being homeless with a motorhome or a very large boat might be worth considering.

best not to talk nonsense if you dont know what you are talking about, and that link is complete garbage, Buddhism is not about extinction. It's about transcending the dual concepts of both eternalism and nihilism although i suppose your feeble brain would have a hard time contemplating it.
 
Quote from peilthetraveler:

Homeless are still slaves. They still have to spend a certain amount of their day standing on the corner begging for money so they can eat. Homeless men also pretty much have to go without having a girlfriend or wife and the 1 or 2% that actually CAN find a woman willing to be homeless with them, they can not have children with them or the state will take them away.

Depression comes with that "freedom" because it doesnt feel good to be a lazy bum. Thats why so many homeless drink and do drugs, so they dont think about how lazy they are.


I now understand why you get on other's nerves around this place.

I know I get on alot of peoples nerves. People would rather hear a nice lie than a hard truth.

Of course there are those homeless by choice. What about those that aren't? That is the hard truth that makes your comment sound idiotic.
 
When you step over a homeless person sleeping on the street, this is our constitution at work. Why they don't teach that in school I'll never know. This would make a good field trip.
 
Quote from hoodooman:

There is no place like home. The first financial resolution that I made in life was to buy a home and I did. I can still feel the relief I felt when it was paid off six years later. Owning your house outright is real freedom.

Until you realize that you are just renting it from the government. And the government can and does raise the "rent" any time it wants.
 
Being a homeless might have advantages but I still wouldn't want to be one. Not even for a day. And that is why I am working hard to earn a living.

Please don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the homeless. I know most of the homeless didn't become one because of choice and I sympathize with them. But that also gives me all the more reason to work even harder.

Why does that make my comment sound idiotic? You think that because they are not their by choice that makes it that they are not lazy and it was circumstance beyond their control? In this country there are many sales positions available and anyone willing to work on commission can get a job tommorrow. These people do not want to work on commission. Maybe its because they think they would be bad at sales, but then that just makes it that they do not want to work on their sales skills which only validates my point.

Go follow a homeless person who isnt there by choice and see how hard they work to find a job. Putting in 1 or 2 job applications is not working very hard, is it?
