Topic: Becoming the homeless and poor it's new Normal now days - page 8. (Read 2247 times)

That is what I always wondered, while food is a lot cheaper than rent, when you combine 30 days of food in a month, that makes a lot of money. A homeless person is usually 99.99% unemployed as well, I can't think of someone who goes to work and also stay homeless. That means a homeless person who is unemployed, doesn't have an income to buy food neither, and can't really sustain any other way.

So, how are these people feeding themselves? I know that there are some food drives and all that, helping these people, there are places they can get a hot meal, but can they do that every single day? For multiple times a day? Or even think about their medical situation? If they are sick, how are they affording hospitals and drugs and all that too? This is obvious that when you become homeless, your health takes a huge hit, you are not expected to live as long as someone who lives at a home.

There are so many other stuff to care about when you are homeless, aside from just not having a home, that's one part of it. Hell, even security is a big issue, if you are homeless and living on the streets, some other person stealing what you have is not that unlikely, they may even hurt you and not care.

Life is a choice, you can choose your own path without having to depend on the economic conditions that are currently hitting your country. Being homeless is not a choice, but some people who are unlucky in life have to bear that status even though in their hearts they feel a deep sense of shame. When the situation is difficult in your region or country, try to think clearly, you can still rely on skills and abilities in certain fields to maintain your status in the current position.
When you feel that you are no longer able to get out of your economic difficulties, try going to another country where the economy is still stable. You can look for work there to survive and improve your finances for the welfare of you and your family. Giving up on the situation is not the best solution, there are still many things you can do to prevent becoming homeless.

Working hard is easy as long as you are committed to your job, but asking for a pay rise, I guess that won’t be as easy as that unless if the government alone will be the one to issue a salary increase for minimal wage earners. But for faster and bigger income, go for another side hustle that will compensate you well enough. And when you’ve earned a sufficient amount for bitcoin investment, then buy and hold even a small amount. Eventually, if you know how to manage your investment and maximize your potential profits, you will no longer rely on your salary but more on the profits from your investment.

The main reason for this is the growing population and more technology. As technology is increasing and as man is progressing, new generations and new people are learning new ways and things, the population is increasing, and the same work that earlier people were doing with more money, now thousands of people are doing the same work. They are ready to do it for a small amount due to inflation and increasing population, employment is becoming less and earners are becoming more. It may be better, but as the population is increasing, the economic condition of the countries is declining.

The second major reason is that unqualified people are present in the governments and sitting on big seats, and the competent and educated people are sifting the dust off the streets due to which the economic condition is deteriorating day by day. It has been and this is the problem of almost many developing countries except a few developed countries.

The condition of those countries can be better if the corrupt system is eliminated, the society is the best whenever it is run with justice, and the society in which there is no justice remains in the same situation.

There's a contradiction in your post.

Hard work or being discipline will make you specialize in your job.

Opportunity in other places mostly ask for many skills and requirements that you don't have, there's no chance you can jump to other place when you don't have the skills.

If the other places that offer better income and they're eligible to apply for the jobs, they will apply the jobs.

There's no recipe for being success, it happen by luck.

It's hard to live and thrive financially nowadays if you don't have access to the right tools and don't have enough time and energy to work a lot. However, I don't see to become homeless as something normal, anyway. Most people I see living on the streets are there because they have further issues with addictions, mental disabilities or don't want to take responsabilities in life. There are also those who don't see a meaning in life anymore, so they have just gave up.

The point is that everyone already has many problems and duties on their personal lives, that it would be very difficult to dedicate themselves to help those people as well. In the end, each individual is by himself in this world, even though many don't want to accept this fact. Nobody can force someone else to come and help, neither a private company, neither the government, your neighboor or even a relative.

Once people accept this harsh truth, they will be treading the first step towards their own self-development. If you find someone willing to help and become a friend, good for you, but don't put all your hopes that it's going to happen. At same time, you will never be alone at all, if you develop a genuine connection with God, and this relationship is the one which will really matter on the hardest moments of hopeless and loneliness.

Well you made some reality sayings about the nature of economy and and the rate of lifestyles of today's. But to some of us, it has been a trend but rather the system is going worse. Then it is no more a new era.

Most people at some ends are not even chasing wealths anymore but struggling to afford their essential needs such as consumable commodities, keeping good healths and paying their taxes on basis as required.

It is so unfortunate that the riches are not crying out to this probably because they reformed the economy structures for more enrichments from the dividends provided by the humans resources which the poor has become machineries of working tirelessly like the elephants and earns/eats like the ants why? Because the riches has already set up a filtering tunnel to profit massively from the labours of the poor people.

The poor are being not recognized with values and there is absolutely no potnetials they societies could find out of them because they are being rated by their present appearance and what they contributes to the Societies.

Because money has become a value to bring happiness and respect to oneself, it has inspired lot of indecent indulgences where people are going extra miles risking even their lives to make the money otherwise even to the lost of their lives.

Poverty has really bathed the Poor with shames and lost of responsibilities which the government don't even give a damn to make review and compare the lives of now and then which is better and how they to review to make the world a better place.
Indeed waiting for the government to give you a better better change for a good life has become a fairy tales and hopeless.

At this rate, I think even people living in developed countries (US, UK, the EU, etc) will become homeless and poor. Central banks claim they've put inflation under control, but the current global economic situation says otherwise. They're lying. If they admitted there is no remedy to solve the current economic crisis, everyone would panic. Central banks just want to pretend everything is good (or at least going back to normal) for their own benefit.

The "Elites" (otherwise known as the rich) are winning, while the poor are losing. This could be nothing but a plan for a "New World Order". The question is: Are we prepared for such a drastic change?

Unfortunately, even getting a decent job these days makes it really hard for us. Regardless if you are a bachelor’s degree holder, so how much more for those who have not even given the chance to be educated, they will really struggle in order to survive.

However, the government should not be blamed either. They can provide us with some assistance by collaborating with the private sectors and offer massive hiring of jobs, but this does not happen all the time. So we cannot expect that all fresh graduates will be given opportunities to be employed, most especially that companies require certain skills and work experience wherein fresh graduates are still incapable of. This is probably the reason why instead of hunting for jobs, people just turn to some investments hoping that they could be lucky and make a good living.

That's just the sad reality of the world we find ourselves now, because people now celebrate money more than anything else, not minding where and how the money was gotten, as if only you are able to proof that you have lots of money, many people will love and respect you, and that's just the reason why many youths of now a days are into internet fraud, simply they wants to impress people who do not love them, but due to the fact that they have money, will always act as if they do. While secondly, government is to be blamed for the situation we find ourselves today, because it's been proven that almost 90% of people in political positions no longer care for the people they represent, but mostly do usually go there just to embezzle funds meant for the public for themselves and their family members.

It's because the people who are ready for job is more available than ever.

so many people trying to find betterment of life through high paying job, so does other millions people in the job market, it's tough competition and people have one same mindset.

as a result, low paying job and a job that's not up to standard is very common because some people also need to make ends meet and there are always some people that just taking up this job because it's better than being jobless. as the time goes, seeing this pattern the big company also lowering their wage and enforce silly requirements.

the solution is maybe incentivizing incubation of startup and aggressively pushing people into entrepreneurship.

Gone are the golden days for employment that gives you advantages to live life at its best. Now, even if you work hard 24/7, that will never guarantee a good life but only a mere survival for your daily life struggles. Except for those executive jobs offered, for sure you will make a good living there, but unfortunately, if you aren’t fully skilled or competent enough, you will never get that promotion. It’s like that these days, we only work hard to live and survive, not actually to make a good living and enjoy our future retirement.

Even this all is common but still life is changing drastically, and we are going from bad to worse because in last few years specially after the pandemic life is not like we have before this people are suffering badly, and we are going down as well in last few years we are porosity is rising in many countries homeless numbers are increasing and money is going back into few hands which are controlling this all for centuries.

In Asian and African region we have too many changes because peoples are now living in high inflation, and they can't able to afford food and other things which are important for living crime ratio is also increasing because peoples are not ready to accept these changes and trying to take this back as they wanted mind set is changing few peoples can survive while having no money but mostly not like this all.

I wouldn't even encourage anyone working as a civil servant to depend on their salary couple with the current economy and inflation ravaging the country I mean all over the world for a civil servant they need additional skill to increase their earning to be able to sustain their family before they are weekly or monthly salary comes in.
With multiple skills or handworks it could be hard for such person to become poor or being homeless due to their skill or maybe even though is high it won't affect so much on the skilled or in a technical personnel due to that professionalism in their skills.

Exactly, good business relationships and mutual need are really needed to make the company still have income. Usually when we have a product that can be useful for many people, what we need to do is maintain a good attitude towards the users of our product. As long as we can maintain good relationships, the company will continue to make a lot of money.

Of course, we as humans who work in companies cannot just remain silent. We must be able to look for other jobs that don't require too much time by relying on the skills we have so that the money in our wallets doesn't just come from one source of employment.

What hurts my heart even more, is seeing people who are not interested in that issue at all. You see homeless people and feel sorry, there are people who are out there who thinks that homeless people deserves that life if they are not "trying" to get out. That's right, there are people out there who think that people deserve to be homeless if they are not trying, like as if they preferred that life.

A lot of things play a role, drug addiction, trauma, financial issues, emotional distress. I think if you have a very small amount, then it's fine, no nation could have zero, we can't have all perfect 100% going great, but if millions start to be homeless, like if it's more than 1% of your population, then it is not really that nice at all. We should realize that we need to keep that under 1%. Those are the magical numbers, less than 1% homeless, less than 10% unemployed and less than 5% inflation, if you keep those, then most of the time situations could be fixed.

For me I feel bad when I see homeless people. It is so sad to see how many people are out on the street struggling just to even get a meal. I try to help the homeless when I am able and truly feel the need to give.
I know it may not be much but when a stranger says thank you it makes me feel good inside that they appreciate the little help you give them. Growing up I also didn’t have much but I was always taught to give to the needy because it is the right thing to do.
Homeless struggle just trying to survive and figure out a way to get a meal. It is normal to see someone living like this and sad.

While this is common, I don't think this is the rule. It's just that we are often surrounded by the wrong people. If only we find the right company, money isn't the thing that matters the most. If you have the money and you're with people who also have the money and spending is the one thing that makes the group cohesive, it's indeed difficult to keep their company if you don't have the money anymore. That's unfair but logical. Me, sometimes I have money, sometimes I don't. Not a problem at all. The people I hang out with don't have money all the time as well.

n any country, homelessness always exists, whether in developed, developing or poor countries. Because basically until now no country has been truly able to develop its society as a whole so that no one becomes homeless. That's why homeless people always exist in any country. Plus your assumption is correct, anyone can become homeless. But actually this assumption will only apply to people who lack motivation. Because I believe the majority of homeless people today do not have much motivation to change their lives for the better. Because everyone can change their life circumstances as long as they have great intention and motivation to go through the process.

Apart from that, the problems that cause many people to become homeless today are definitely caused by a lack of employment opportunities, low quality of education, high prices of basic commodities, high house prices and house rentals. For this reason, in order to avoid becoming homeless, we must be able to solve this problem early on. The point is that it starts with education, from childhood everyone must be really serious about learning everything that can really be useful for them in the future. The educational context I mean here is not just school, but education that can be learned from anywhere as long as it is positive. After that, from a young age, in my opinion, you must have a good plan to create a brighter future. For people who become homeless, it is clear that they do not have any plans for the future. They only think about how they can eat today.

So in my opinion, this is what can be done to avoid homelessness, especially for young people. Because as far as I know, up to now in several large countries there are many children who are still young but have become homeless.

If you look closely, the reality of what is happening now is like that. But we have to remember friend, not everyone has a bad view of poor or homeless people. I'm sure there are still many people who have good hearts today. Plus, I personally think thieves are definitely worse than homeless people who don't steal. Because after all crime has a lower degree than poverty. So I think a poor or homeless person is better than someone who commits a crime.

You might not be far from the truth, though the society today is full of discrimination, intimidation and oppression. A society where if you don't have connections you are a no body and if you equally don't have money no body will regard you. It's has been like that for a long time now and not a new things. It has been said that "money makes the world Go round" but that will not give a chance of seeing crime as the next option or alternative. because that will be the worst case scenario. Though many people might be doing it and getting away with it, but doesn't mean they are Smarter than others. It is said that "everyday is for the thief and one day is for the owner of the house" so you don't know that day. Let us not use the sake of unforseen circumstances to see the bad people in the society as they are living well cause it might mislead us to follow the wrong part. The best thing to do is to be productive by leaning a skill that will be generating a passive income while pushing hard for a greater opportunity ahead. The society or life doesn't give you what you want but place you where you belong base on your efforts or hard work. It's just like saying "I want to be a doctor" and you don't make preparations for it or didn't meet the demand of being a doctor, definitely you will not because you didn't work it out and the it becomes a wish. That's why they said "dream without fulfilment becomes wishes".
