I purposely went homeless for a bit more than 3 years, I felt like i had to in order to take care of my youngest daughter. I did rent 2 storage units, they were side by side. One I parked my car in and the other i stored my furniture and personal things cloths and the things that make a home. I organized it into a small but usable place to live in the summer spring and fall, but winter is brutal in Indiana. So in 3 bag's and 1 bus ticket, I loaded up my daughter and bought her boyfriend a bus ticket, and we headed to Florida for the winter. Not even her boyfriend knew where i parked my car,nor did he know anything about the 2nd storage unit. That was to keep things safe for her myself and my eye candy 2008 350Z 2 seat Ragtop. I rented an apartment in a very shady part of Ocala Fl. But coming back for the 3rd time, my daughter got pregnant, and he abandoned her to the nothing, and he went back to his family. My daughter ended up getting married to her friend, an older man. But i still continued to take care of her till the baby was born. I rented an apartment and her husband was 42 year's her senior, he gave the baby a name and sadly he passed away 9 months later. I took the baby and, I took her 2nd baby 3 1/2 years later. I haven't seen much of her in these past 11 year's . But I know she got hooked on drugs went to jail here and there. And as far as i know she's tryin to stay clean. She just text me after almost 5 months and said she couldn't take the abuse where she was,and that she's making every attempt to stay clean and try and find someplace safe to stay. Id let her stay here, but small kids get on her nerves, and she can't smoke here. And her children only know her by aunt Cocoa. It's better thus way. When she needs me im here to feed her and give her a few clothes. But living with me is not an option. It's sad , and I do feel sorry for her,because she is a little girl in a grown up woman's body. Also she has a constant broken right foot from a bone Disease in her foot only. How she has sugar diabetes. And she was told never to have children because she has Polly Cystic kidney Disease. Life's been good, but it's not been easy either, but God always makes a way. And that Sports car i used to have, is now an old 04 dependable Chevy van 😊❤P.S.Also want to mention that not all homeless people want to be homeless, but sometimes thats how things turn out for a lot of good people ❤❤❤
Just found your channel. Very interesting and amazing content. Its a window to the reality some people live in. Thank you for your practical help to these less fortunate people and your great heart. God bless you, sir.
How would he charge the battery if needed? I wish there was a place they could build their homes and live without discrimination or judgement. It's hard enough life as it is without cruel people adding to it. I hate homelessness and wish more could be done for them like aiding them into an actual home and safety.
Bro, you are awesome for helping that man!! God Bless you!!!🙏🏼👑✝️ 👑Remember that Jesus Christ loved us all, so much that He died on the cross for all of our sins, he was buried and He arose again on the third day and if we just Believe in His Blood and Finished Work, we are saved and justified from all sin. His Blood washes our sins away. God Bless!🙏🏼✝️👑
👑Matthew 25:40 “And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”
thank you for making a mans life little easier . we need more people like you to care and not judge.
I'm homeless. The hard part is finding somewhere to plug in. The second issue is thieves.
I hear ya❤
I'm still watching, waiting for an explanation. I thought will he also get some sort of solar plane to charge it?
McDonalds, gas stations, no?
@@IvanAkinfiev They would throw you out after couple of minutes.

God bless you and Joe.
Ah jeez he suits it. Hi from Ireland ❤
Mr. Erik You Win Sir Mate, Ah
Thank you, Erik. Joe loves it. Wondering how he recharges battery. Love what you do.
@@imRosco69 thanks, I appreciate it.
Joe has a spot where he can charge stuff, so it seems to be working out for him so far
What a nice gesture, Erik ..
Just one thing, tho, how will he charge the battery? Solar? 🇬🇧
@@vapete1237 he has a spot for charging
Pedaling can charge it
This was so heart warming❤

@@dollmm23 thanks, ai appreciate it.
Thanks for watching
Wow. That made my day. 😊😊😊😊😊
That was so kind of you to pass that bike and trailer on to him.
bless you Erik
Great stuff 🙏
Lovely
Admire your work Erik, you are sweeet awesome human. Greetings from argentina
Thanks, glad you're enjoying my videos
I hope Joe can invest in about 3 or 4 good bike locks that are battery powered angle grinder resistant.
GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER🙏GREAT AMAZING CHANNEL
i love this❤❤
Awesome
You got him everything except a helmet
Why don't you give him that?
You cool brother
How does a homeless guy charge his eBike?
Any telephone pole has electricity even the side walk light's have it ebikes charge at about 100w so any place you put a lightbulb should be ok.
love
Anybody ever tell you that your voice sounds a little bit like Sterling Holloway?
@@danl7756 you’re the first. I usually get the guy from unsolved mysteries, or the mob reporter

Well done Erik, I assume charging it won't be an issue?
Thanks. Joe has a spot where he charges things
@@ErikKSwanson Excellent.
@@ErikKSwansonmaybe a folding solar panel and an inverter would help, especially if not used too long ? Such a beautiful thing to do 🙏🤙😎
Look for a house to charge it at
"what would a homeless man do with a brand new e-bike?" I can tell you right now that he would not be able to charge the battery...
@@theforgottenbrawlers …except that he is able to charge it.
Do you really think I didn’t make sure he could charge it first?
@@ErikKSwanson how come? No home = no eectricity and battery like that has to charge at least couple of hours.
@ I’m not going to put his electric source on the internet for the whole world to see. That’s how he would lose it
@@ErikKSwanson Fair enough. thanks for helping the people that are really in need.
Joes Bike,Whos name is it registered too ? Dont want cops taking it from him .
@@DSC-i5i the cops in his town are pretty chill, they’re not going to take it
USE IT TO BE a runner or shopper gfor others
.
How is he gonna charge it
@@budbundy5021 he has his ways
👍🐿😎
I love your channel, everyone needs love ❤
@Erik K Swanson GOD BLESS YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS ❤❤❤
A regular foldable bicycle would have probably been a better idea. An e-bike presents many issues to a homeless person.

If you believe in god then it must be God that made him homeless. why did God make his life so difficult. God must be a terrible person.
@@brookerobertson2951 The government is at fault for that. Sin in the world causes affliction.
Give Jesus an e-donkey.
Where is he gonna charge it? Good intention but not really useful irl
@@JoyElectric567 he has a spot. Do you really think I didn’t make sure he could charge it?
Why not get a job& a place to stay. How eill he stop thieves
its already stolen
