For some strange reason, Scotty decided to share the way he obtained Section 8 Federal-subsidized housing. Not an easy task when following conventional means. Scotty is a member of the gym and a former homeless guy.
As a matter of fact, all waiting lists for Federal Section 8 and State-subsidized housing (including senior citizen housing) have been closed since September of last year. Scotty never signed up.
Scotty mentioned that he tried to persuade a 70-ish buddy of his to follow his method and get off the streets. His buddy had a bandage over one eye that day, apparently the result of some kind of altercation. Yet, even given the constant danger on the streets, Scotty's buddy did not want to follow any advice. He wanted to remain on the streets.
"There's a lot of people like that," Scotty said. "They want to stay on the streets." Why? "They don't want to go home," he replied. That's a profound answer. Why go home when there no reason to be there? Why rot away alone in a mausoleum?
