    Like half of Americans are one paycheck away from being homeless. So what point exactly are you making? That you’re morally superior for being better off? Or that we should wait until we have at least two paychecks saved? You have all the answers?

      My answer seems to be living in a developed country in Europe. I can tell you, I felt very superior about the place I live walking the streets of San Francisco last year and being harassed by homeless people every street corner asking me for money or drugs.

      Also yes, have at least two paychecks saved if that’s a possibility for you. It’s hilarious how you try to make your own advice seem like some alien concept that’s unachievable.

      I didn’t feel morally superior at all, but the way you people are unable to come up with any good excuse why homeless people don’t want to use the help that’s available to them and instead turn into raging incoherent idiots is quickly changing that.
