Yeah, was thinking the same when I opened & read the first post. Basically he's doing this for...fun? hipster training? I don't get it either.

Couple of questions:
How old is your MacBook?
How old is your iPhone?
Where do you park your car?

You can't afford a place with that money? Fridays and Saturdays crash at your friends places, and the other days just use a cheap motel. Unless your friends are almost like family I wouldn't want to wear out my welcome.

Check out short-term leases and room rentals on craigslist.

Secondly, I'm sorry if your home situation is unsafe and forced you to leave, I'll take your word for it. But the fact remains that you have posted here several times about how you have your own business and significant savings - the fact remains that you represented that you have no other choice than to live in your car when you can't find friends to crash with, and that is untrue.

did i claim i was smart? i don't remember doing that. that doesn't sound like me. also, never thought about room rentals. thats a good idea. ill check that out.

i do have my own business, but it's stumbling right now. i'm making money. but it's stumbling. also, keep in mind this business is a very small operation. as in two employees.

my savings are fairly significant i guess....but i do have loans and i don't like to dip into them.

sorry if i sounded like i was bragging. i wasn't. there's nothing really to brag about. also, sorry if you're butthurt i called a couple of you marsupialed. don't act marsupialed next time :[.

i didn't represent that i have no friends to crash with -- i just said i don't want to burden them too much. i've been crashing with different people for the past few days, on their couches.

lol @ butthurt. I may be marsupialed, but I know who was butthurt.

peanut, you're doing fine. G'luck on your endeavors.
