You can pay $2000 to live like the homeless...
A former homeless man in Seattle is offering the well off the chance of a lifetime! Do you feel like you take everything you have for granted? For a huge sum of $2000 this man will set you up to live like the homeless for a 2 night period.
This is a schedule of activities:
Day 1- you get a make over, and a few pointers on how your stay will be.. You get to spend the day touring homeless hangouts- and you get dinner at Fare street (A place where professional chefs taught the homeless how to cook, and where they have become self sufficient). You end your night in a shelter.
Day 2 - Much of the same as Day 1, but you get to wind down at a hotel at the end of the night.
Day 3 - You are taken out at 3 am to wander the streets- you then must discuss what you have seen and learned to get a greater understanding of this lifestyle... But this is all done with cocktails. No idea whether this happens around a fire in a barrel.
To nobody's surprise, this program is under criticism.. Critics are saying this guy is taking valuable space out of homeless shelters for people who could afford to pay for a room elsewhere (Essentially taking a roof out from over someone else's
head).
You might, or might not be, surprised to hear that nobody has signed up for the program yet.
