As someone that has been homeless multiple times in my life during my youth and early adulthood, the staggering amount of ignorance about how difficult it can be to get out of it is alarming and disappointing.

PS. I neither smoke nor drink. I do not have children and have never been arrested in my life.

作为一个从小到大多次无家可归的人，看到大家觉得脱离困境和贫穷是那么容易的一件事，这种无知是真的很让我失望，也很让我震惊。

PS：我从不抽烟喝酒，我没孩子，也从没进过局子。

I think during your youth and early adulthood can be a bit of an exception as the circumstances to becoming homeless at that age rely a lot on your familial situation. I’m much more willing to help out a young sober looking homeless person than I am a 40 year old with no visible disabilities.

Why did you become homeless anyways?

楼上说自己童年和成年早期时经常无家可归，那这应该被算作例外，因为那时的无家可归很大程度上都归咎于家庭状况。我更愿意帮助年轻、看起来很清醒的无家可归者，而不是那些40岁并且看起来无明显残疾的人。

哦对了，你那时为什么会无家可归呢？

As you stated, familial circumstances and job layoffs. It got hard around my city just because no one was really hiring at the time, even as far as part time. Actually considered joining the Marines for a while, I got that desperate.

层主：正如你所说，家庭状况和公司裁员。我们市里那会儿日子过得越来越难，因为没人招工啊，哪怕是..也没有。实际上我曾一度考虑加入海军陆战队，那时的我就有那么无路可走。

Sleeping outside during winter with nothing but a hoodie and the shelters being full up so you"re turned away. It gets real, that"s why I can never turn down someone homeless that asks me for a little help. I"ve been there and was actually the guy that didn"t want to ask for money just out of pride. Being homeless can drive you to drinking and drug abuse, it is absolutely soul crushing at times.

寒冬中睡在街上，全身除了一件帽衫啥也没有，避难所挤满了人所以你被拒之门外。是真的难，这就是我很难拒绝任何一个无家可归之人向我求助。因为我也曾陷入过那个境地，而且我那时出于尊严不愿意向别人伸手要钱。

无家可归可能会驱使你去酗酒或吸毒，有时候真的能使得你的灵魂支离破碎。

Luck, really. I got a prepaid cell phone from Wal-Mart with pennies and nickels and dimes I scrounged up from the ground and trash for about $30 and got a card for another $30 for a month of service. Got lucky, got a call back from Burger King. Flipped burgers, lived under a bridge for a week then got my first check, got a motel room and paid by the week. It was a piece of crap but for $100 a week, I could save $50-75 a week. Things got better after that.

还真就是运气。我从地上和垃圾堆里零零散散地搜寻出了一些钢镚，然后到沃尔玛买了一部预付费的电话，又买了张含一个月服务的..，各花了三十块。（在各种打电话求工作后）然后就很走运，我接到了汉堡王的回电。我就到了那儿翻烤肉饼，在桥下又住了一周，拿到第一笔工资后我就到了一间可以每周付租金的汽车旅馆，，虽然地儿贼破，但每周只要100刀，这样我每周都能攒下50-75刀了。自那以后一切都慢慢好起来了。
