do you really think making 60k/yr precludes someone from being homeless in boston? did you stop once to consider whether their house burnt down, or they’re escaping an abusive relationship, or they fell victim to a rental scam, etc etc

there’s a myriad of reasons that someone with a job could end up homeless. or maybe, they’re not asking for themselves, they’re asking for a friend who would like some discretion? literally just take like 10 seconds to apply some critical thought to the situation before being judgemental. and yeah, there likely IS something being left out of the discussion, because homelessness is a very taboo topic to the american public and OP likely doesn’t want to offer up too many details
