The guy that I was working for decided he wasn't going to pay me after the job was completed, and there is nothing I can do to get him to pay. I didn't have much money when I got here, and now I have less than that. Now I am flat broke, but do have transportation as of right now. I am single male mid 40's and no family and friends to help. I don't drink or do drugs. I am a highly skilled marine mechanic, electrician, and highly skilled in computer/network setup and repair. The problem is..one - over 40 and two - do not have the certification to back up my skills. I sold most of all my computer tools and parts just to live for a week and now I am probably going to end up selling my other tools just to eat as I am living in my truck at the moment. I am seriously contemplating doing something stupid just to get locked up for awhile. I'm sure prison can't be as hard as living on the street in this economy. If anyone has an idea to help me out I would GREATLY appreciate it. Thanks, Scottie I am not from florida, I came here for work.

Stick by his side. It's probably not his fault. Some people are targeted by a seriously tough group of people. Try to find him someone else he can rent with and get help with. Maybe three homeless people together on dss to rent a place. It's awful. Just try and relax. i’m in the same position. Stick by his side. It’s probably not his fault.

I am not being physically abused or anything like that, it's hard to explain, but I know that I can't stay there much longer. I have to get out and in times like these when there are so many other people that are in much more dire need than I, I also feel selfish for not being able to put up with what I have and just deal with it. I think it's because I have dealt with it for so many years and now I have reached the breaking point. Anyway, I noticed that most of the posted help for the homeless does not specifically mention "shelter" and so many are geared towards entire families or those that are abused or have drug/alcohol related issues, none of these pertaiin to me. Am I destined to either stay put and end up over the edge or roam around the streets with no place to go. I don't know what to do or where to go. I don't have family that can help and I don't want to impose where I know I am not wanted but just tolerated just because I am family. All of my family lives several states from here. Can anyone offer me any advice that will actually make me feel at ease please? I need some kind of hope. Right now I feel like I am in deep trouble and can't find a way out. I don't do drugs or alcohol. I'm not weird or anything. I'm an adult citizen, I am employable. I'm just a little lost right now. Hi,

I don't know if this is the case in the states but I would have thought a wealthy country such as your would provide accommodation for it's citizens who are unemployed. Another way would be to maybe get a residential job, you do not mention what field of work you are in. If you have references you could look after the elderly and live in or become a home help.In this day and age when so many have so much and so many have so little ,the balance needs to be redressed. If you can afford it put an ad in the local paper and request work living in and explain that you are flexible and willing to work for your keep. Hope that helps a bit and Good luck !

We were staying with her until we were able to find apt/house us and the children preferably still close to her home. However she had some financial difficulty and lost everything from clothes to our home. Right now we have been bouncing from hotel to hotel for the past 2 wks. We need help!!! Not only is this expensive but rough for the kids. We haven't the money for both rent and deposit. As it is we are scraping for food. I've now found places to get food yet being in hotels it's hard to cook. She's a retired disabled school teacher and my children are 14 and 11.
