Default Re: 'Car sleepers' the new US homeless!

Hi punter2003,

You may add me in with your stats. I lived in my car back almost 28 years ago for just over months! But I need to ask you is what is a 'normal' life as for me from that time my 'alternative' lifestyle has taken me across seas and to now be quite comfortable.

One thing I do agree with in what you wrote is that we do tend to develope a more practical side to our nature, as problems tended to occur almost daily, and, if I was to be totally honest, that 'practical' became a problem for me in my personal life.

But, on the other hand, things always happen for a reason, now I'm here in Brazil with two great kids and a small farm (love the kids, like the farm).

Best regards,

Steve
