Question

How do homeless people make money ? and stay warm?

Answer 1

lol they dont

Answer 2

most of the time homeless ppl don't make money either because of poor eduction or having bad credit. most of the time the stay at a homeless shelter. but other than that they wonder the streets!!

Answer 3

There are many different types of homeless people out there from people with mental issues to people dealing with addictions and there are some low income families that live day to day,right now there are not very many low income housing for those that don`t make enough to live an average lifestyle.

There are shelters for those that choose to use the shelters I work in outreach and see people from ages from teens to people in there 70`s and there are some that chose this lifestyle of living on the streets ,there are some women and children that are out there to escape an abusive home.

In the city I live in there is a city wide thing that if the night time temp gets close to zero then more beds are open .

But the sad part is seeing the young teens out there escaping abusive lifestyle from home but there are shelters now for teens and outreach workers for helping those out there.

Answer 4

Some are veterans and those who are disabled who get a little money, just not enough to keep a place rented without being evicted.  They live in cars, sleep under railroad bridges in large refrigerator boxes and newspapers to insulate their own body heat, and also go in all night stores at night and pretend to shop as well as go in the library in the day in a non traffick area to sleep.  They pretend they are reading with a open book and just fell off if asked to go.

Answer 5

they collect cans and live in shelters.

Answer 7

They don't; that's why they're homeless.

They have no homes. And their money is less.

Answer 8

They sleep on those potholes that have heat rising from them.  Homeless people usually make money usually either from welfare or panning on the street.  Often times homeless people can't afford housing for there is too long of list for hud.
