You have to screw up pretty hard to be near-homeless as a programmer in this environment.
- kidgorgeous 14y agoWell I guess I screwed up royally
- mikecane 14y agoHang in there. I hope you will have better days.
- mahmud 14y agoIt's very easy to become homeless when you get the 1-2 punches of illness and divorce. A friend of mine went from riches to rags within a year that way.
- jacquesm 14y agoIt is surprisingly easy to end up like that, no matter what your qualifications. Go to a homeless person and ask them to tell you their story for some food and coffee, prepare to have your worldview shattered.
