And no skill in anything to earn it, with no house, no posesions, and no one to help you, how would try to get back on top in life? killing yourself or begging doesn't count.

e.g: I'd go to the library and learn as much as possible about a different language to get a job as a translator.

Good luck.

I'd Get a Katana from the trash bin then go to a huge building and Go to the managers office and while raising the katana towards him politely ask him "Is this where I can apply for a job?"

If it was that easy africa would be rich too. You just can´t enter everywhere, libraries and stuff, and you can´t always apply for a job. Also, learning a lanquage takes years, not minutes. You need food and a home. And besides, a katana? As if my brother would throw his ones away, and i can't imagine someone doing it. Selling's the better word than throwing away. Besides, threatening will end you up in jail.

I'd go to a cafe, pub or something alike, talk to the manager to see if he has work, maybe even a bed. If he has this I'd work for the home and work extra for a little bit money.

Well as it is now, I am looking forward to the end of this month so I can get money... Stupid evil large bills > >...
It is relatively easy to get a job as a bartender (if you have the right age), also dishwasher and door man is easy to get jobs, if you are old enough or have the right physics.
That should be something to start out with, at least.
But harhar, social security!

Because of HBOS going down I am in danger of having very little money, so I think I need to think very hard about this question over the next few months. Very hard indeed.

Or I could just go on the dole. I love the nanny state!

if i had no money, no skills, and no posessions... hmm, well i would probably get beaten up for being naked in the street first off, but after i found some lovely smelling clothes in a bin i guess i wouldnt know where to go from there... fashion a mask out of bits of chewing gum stuck to the street which fitted like a secnd skin, and steal someone's identity though i guess i would have to spend a while learning to do that, and eat out of bins in the meantime...

No money, no skills, living one the streets. Sounds like I would be pefect for Big Brother. It sounds just like most of the contestants lol.

Or I could just go on the dole. I love the nanny state!


God bless EMA. Payed for going to school, what a joke. Then again I would be broke otherwise so no complaints from me.

"I used to be a waiter, but I was fired for clearing tables. I was clearing them for take off. I had them all lined up outside. People thought it was an outdoor cafe. I said, "No, these are leaving at 3." They were going to fire me anyway, because I told them I thought they should put the wrapper on the inside of the straw since that's the part you don't want to get dirty."

Anywayy. you could always invade someones house and claim you were living there as a lodger. That way they can't kick you out. You hears stories of gypsies doing it all the time. Then again I read the Daily Mail* so I don;t think I can talk.

*When I say "I", I mean my parents and I read the sport bits but hey if I have nothing better to do.

That's what I was thinking at first, but getting caught is pretty simple. It takes planning to rob someone successfully and if you got no skill...you'll fail!


I'm a girl. I could "work on the street", if you know what I mean.. That would make a lot of money pretty fast, later on get an apartment, go to night classes and then get a job that doesn't involve so much...physical work.
