My friend is 33, and after his divorce and some bad jobs, he's been homeless for a year....he owes child support which will garnish his wages to the point that he can only afford a hotel room apt, thank goodness he got a job for the ski season, but in a few months it will be back to scrambling for another job

If it wasn't for my own parent's help, I'd be in dire straits myself...and I am 42
