'I really have a hard time understanding why people would intentionally do that to themselves.'
Because they have no other options? What would you do if you were in their shoes?
- Cozumel 9y agoThey didn't start off homeless and presumably they've not been working for Uber all of their lives. If you're not earning enough then that should be enough of a red flag for you to stop right then and there. You don't keep trucking on till you lose your home and are living in your car! You go, well this isn't working out, maybe I'll quit Uber and go back to what I was doing before, before I lose my house! Even with an Uber lease, just default on it, tell them you moved (so repo men can't find you), and then take care of it later on if you want too when you have more money. What would I do personally? I would never place myself into a situation like that to start with, but if I were then I would re-skill and find a job that wouldn't have me living in my car!
