<p dir="auto">I found a trick if anyone moves like to the Midwest or like the Great Lakes. Well, I’m in the Great Lakes. Or maybe like Kentucky or something. I mean, I don’t know where peoples ancestors are from. Everyone tells me they covered for minor from. Mine.<br />
So there’s a fun thing to do. My parents died. So I had financial difficulties getting Social Security late.<br />
I found a cheap fun pass time. I hope most of you have your own home or live maybe in an Airbnb. It’s certainly better than having $500 a month for food because I went to the hospital four times in the end. Anyway.<br />
Yeah, I chose Cleveland for now and wanna move someday for fun. I went to a college here and it was a nice Midwest sort of great lakes environment. Almost better than Wisconsin. I came back later and was all about like sort of a technical field of the city. I hardly met anyone but I did see the people here. It just wasn’t that college environment of 1986, etc.. From 2005. So it’s horrible. I cope with it not being 2005 pretty well. I was expecting some things to be better. The only things are better are things like learning to cook. Or I’m learning piano better.<br />
Anyway, to my brilliant idea, if any of you move like to the sort of mid north east of the country or someplace like that. Anyway, I’m from like you know below the state of St. Louis if you were wondering.<br />
So if you’re wondering a good thing to do is to slowly like whatever your budget is just collect cheap canned food you like or some kind of canned food or even just food like that you could eat an emergency. Little by little. Like say I’m really poor now I’m worried about not having savings not being able to work for two years so far. So like squeezing by losing $400.02 months in a row on Social Security without savings because of something that was gonna happen like losing Medicaid and just having Medicare someday it was a big thing, and like alone I got from someone bothering me while I was packing outside, like maybe next time I order from Instacart. Like I could get one can of food. I already have some. I might actually have to use something.<br />
So like I would have green beans, maybe some mixed vegetables, black beans with a lot of protein that also taste good canned which I think I’ve detected even when I was living at home before my parents died, and I see peanut butter sitting on my shelf that I use on crackers which crackers seem to store pretty good compared to say freezing bread, I even use the grains in the white crackers, I got tired of wheat crackers a lot of times, I have some canned goods from visiting food pantries which I mean, I don’t know why I would do that for fun, I have milk that goes on the shelf. Like I was thinking of buying all the stuff at once and like replacing it every year or something. But like even when you’re poor, I would suggest getting like one or two cans of something like Green beans or like I have the cheap vegetable vegetable and beef stew which I’ve lived on for a little bit like I would just get that stuff. I’m like say if I’m moving to like another Airbnb for a while cause I was evicted or whatever or bankrupt I would bring those cans and something and put it in the car. It seems really neat. So brilliant. Just get one or two cans and you don’t have much money. And if you have more or whatever I guess you can get some more. Cause even if you’re homeless, I guess it would help. So you wouldn’t have to like shy away from getting maybe 51 week.<br />

<p dir="auto">I know it’s not dumb and you can always do it later.<br />
The reason I’m doing it now is because it pissed me off so much all this time. I wanted to just get food to live on all at once. Being poor I was so pissed off. I just wanted enough food to last me for a month like canned vegetables, frozen chicken breasts. I haven’t thought of this before. One months is a good start. And then an electric stove is only under $10. They would have pots that heat up just sit on the table. They’re not like expensive like $15.<br />
So this is really fun. I can just collect the cans. I don’t know where I’m gonna do it. I guess I’ll just put them in a box or something. There’s a shelf in this house the Airbnb and it seemed like fun to just play with them and put them on a shelf, but why would I have room? I was even thinking about making an ideal lifestyle like instead of saying oh I need to stretch like an hour most days for fun now or something. Like I thought I kinda wished I got a degree in English and went to law school now. I was just so obsessed with just having fun on the Internet. And I wanted to be an actor in Hollywood too. So I don’t know what I’m gonna do now. I kinda don’t even wanna enroll in travel and do general studies because I mean, maybe I’m just trying to get to Hollywood. And I have Social Security. I’m slowly studying to sell insurance so then maybe I’ll just do that.<br />
