Default Living/Sleeping in Your Car

Would you ever live out of your car or sleep in it? I'm thinking of embracing a more alternative lifestyle, one that doesn't cost money and one that involves paying less bills.

I couldn't do that, because I'd be too afraid of people breaking in or something. Plus, where would you keep all of your stuff? In theory though, that's a great way to save money If you do go for it, please be careful!!

That's a hard question. I certainly wouldn't do it if I did not have to; just to save money is not worth the inconvenience and all the risks, in my opinion. But if I was, say, to lose my house, and faced the alternative of moving back with my father-in-law vs. living in the car, I'd probably choose the car!

Are you talking about home mobile? Well that's a cute thought but still looks boring. I can't do the normal stuffs I do at home with that.

I only mean this mode of living because I wanted to, not because I lost a place to stay. I saw this man who lived in his car because he wanted to, and I just couldn't stop thinking about the idea. I honestly don't want a permanent address.

How would you get your mail though? Also, how would people get into contact with you? Would you be able to sleep comfortably in your car?

Okay, maybe not a car, then....A van perhaps? A really long one? As far as phone service, I could do a pay as you go phone service, and I could have all my mail sent to my mom's address. (I don't get a whole lot of mail.)

That's pretty handy but still I don't think you could last long in living in your car. What about taking a bath or any other things you do privately in your house?

Okay, I was just making sure you were thinking about all that. Well, it sounds to me like you could do it. I say, go for it as long as you be safe
