How do you bounce back from being homeless? Seems kinda impossible.

%10 of homeless people willing to turn their lives around, happens all the time.

They SHOULD be productive unless they have a disability preventing them to do so.

Every other homeless guy knew where to get street drugs
Lots of slooty homeless girls (though not attractive)
Lots of free time to do whatever you want, like go to the library and use public computers, even do street workouts
edit:
Casino nearby, could get smokes off the ground that someone only took a couple puffs off of
Free hygiene products at the shelter

Are you employed?
Do you have an address for mail?
What do you do about dentistry? Medical care?
Have you got some kind of storage or hidey hole, or do you just carry everything with you all the time?
