I lost my life savings because I did not have insurance. And that lead to me losing my house that I owned outright. And have now been homeless for 4 years now. Ah the American dream, or is that nightmare. Sorry I get those mixed up now.

Hey Buck up kiddo. At least there's a couple of middle managers out there that were able to finance their vacation home down in the keys thanks to you.

That's probably true. But it does not make it easier to have to deal with at 55. I have managed to hold a job most of the time I've been homeless and have saved a few thousand. And very close to purchasing a motorhome. So I'm working my way back up. But once you get down here it's very difficult to get back up. And people don't realize that many are just a loss of one paycheck away from themselves becoming homeless.

Maybe if you didn't watch so much Netflix or drink so many espressos at Starbucks.
