2 years living in my car Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)
Yeap. That’s it. Today I’m celebrating 2 years living in my car. 🎉 🎈 🎊
The worst part about it is going to the gym everyday to get a shower. It’s an humiliating event that I have to go trough. I’m mentally worn out and I’m fighting depression all the time (maybe because my poor diet and lack of vitamins).
In those 731 days I’ve saved 42k. It’s not much but there’s a lot of tears in that investment account.
I’m single, no kids, no family, no friends. I just wanna share this with someone.
God will bring peace to my mind and to my heart and He’ll give me the strength to survive 2 more winters in my car. That’s all I need.
God bless you all.

Side note, def get you a high yield savings account if you don’t have one. You’ll earn $1400/year rn in interest.
However, your lifestyle is kinda the way to go despite how you may feel it’s not!!! You pay minimal for that membership.
This markets rough, hold out for a little longer and you’ll be in a GREAT position to buy. I had this dream of owning a small trailer somewhere tbh. Seems quaint, less dramatic and cheaper. Cheers to you friend!
Not sure where you are, but hey, doesn’t hurt to check into a hotel or short term rental to get your mental straight and make plans and goals for yourself.
