Studies of how remaining hunter/gatherer tribes around the world have/had been living suggests that's not really true - shelter, food and leisure time were almost always readily available. What wasn't was modern medical technology, which has been almost solely responsible for massively reducing deaths in childbirth and early infancy and giving us the average lifespans we enjoy today. Even among civilizations that founded around agriculture, there's little evidence that homelessness, starvation or lack of free time were the constant reality for the masses, even if there's no question what life they did have would be considered incredibly basic by modern developed-world standards.
