This is heartbreaking. The rent prices are at minimum $1500/mo, and even if he got on Housing assistance, he couldn't afford his share. Democrat controlled cities are all looking the same. God bless this man and the many like him

Marvin comes through our lunch line in Civic Center Park nearly every day. Always pleasant, often sharing some groaner of a joke. I had no idea of his story. Breaks my heart, but I'm glad we can provide a little something for him.
This man served for 8 years in the 101st Airborne - one of the most decorated units in history - probably not a unit you get into without being talented, smart and brave - and this is how his government treats him.
This man FOUGHT FOR HIS COUNTRY. the government should bow their heads in shame. Such a humble man. Such grace. A wonderful example of an unbreakable spirit.
TJ Marta yes it helped I didn’t always have one but most of the time I did and even if I couldn’t find work cleaning houses, etc, I would drive ppl places for money. I did a lot of cleaning and sometimes stocking beer coolers for small stores. Thankfully, I never had to sleep outside, I was very blessed. 🙂
This man reminds me of my partner who died recently. She had horrific health issues caused by a stroke but never stopped smiling and laughing. Some people have an incredible inner light that nothing will dim. God bless you Marvin
Because we are just used for war for their money and power they don't even care for you all they want is your hard earn money by taxing you for everything and if you don't pay them they will have men with guns and throw you into prison and take your home and then put you into prison so they can make money off of you while in there we are nothing to the elites in government.
There are plenty of campers and motorhomes that the poor homeless could be living in. But nowhere to legally park them without paying an arm and a leg.
Once you deploy to combat and do the dirty work for Uncle Sam, Then he doesnt need you anymore! Face it, all of us Veterans were just pawns in the game!
Shame on the system that failed this man! The same system he protected with his own life! I'm humiliated that I sponsor such a world. I am very sorry brother. Thank you for sharing and protecting your fellow humans. Much love and light ...and turquoise rays of protection cover your spirit. 💛💚❤👣👣
Has skin cancer and wishes for a bathroom and a place to stay. I watch a couple of these Invisible People videos when I need a reality check on how bad my life really is.
This guy is awesome. Still a smile on his face with all the health problems, nevermind the homelessness.. Even then he's probably happier than half the 9 to 5 robots. I wish I could get his way of thinking.
Just because someone out there has it worse than you doesn't mean you can't complain. It should mean that there should be even more outrage for that unfortunate person.
Finally broke my heart when he said his three wishes. Such a humble, undemanding and kind guy. Trying to feel funny and positive despite his whole world is so mercilessly crumbling apart. I have no words. Keep up, Marvin, hope you're still with us and my kindest wishes to you, man.
@White Man What do you mean? When and where did this start? The american government depends on its soldiers, the american families depend on their fathers. How could this man be abandoned by his family and his country?
@White Man politics division only serve for creating this kind of situation. Each government should look for the most disables, the poorest, the more needed...
For sure but politicans represent the people of the country. Us citizens walk pass these homeless people and didnt make effort to give their voice for their situation.
There is definitely enough greed. People screaming about people getting an extra 600$ a month for their unemployment benefits right now. That’s what’s keeping some people off the street... There is always a reason. Trump just reversed affordable housing rules... like dude! And then said so the house prices will rise in their suburbs and the crime will go down! Hahaha this is actually going on right now! He is taking care of everyone! Right. And when he said he’ll drain the swamp he didn’t mean corrupt politicians or whatever everyone thought. He meant he’ll help the poor die faster!
@Last Minute Prayer Your idea is great! It's just if you don't have money or power or even the right connections, then none of this can happen. There are so many things the government itself can do to help. In fact, there are hundreds of things and yet they aren't doing anything. It just shows you how greedy this world has become. I live in Bradford England and in my town there's a large abandoned mall (in fact there's two, just a few metres away from each other). Trust me when I say they are HUGE. And it's been left empty and standing there for over 13 years, possibly more. A lot could be done with it, it wouldn't be hard to renovate and I know that there are people in my area that have so much money, they literally throw it around. And yet there are so many homeless people (especially ex-soldiers) on the sides of the streets and they're prevented from going in at all costs. It's barbaric!
Mikael and who glorified drugs? I know, because I’m guilty to admit, I’m a baby boomer, of the counter culture of the 60’s: turn on, tune in, & drop out! Timothy Leary , that buffoon philosopher, the stupid counter culture! Wall Street & NY marketing media saw it & took to the bank ($) by selling us sex, drugs & rock’n roll! Now look what we have baby boomers who believed this crap that they could do better than their parents by creating a Utopia, of no commitments, throw out responsibilities, throw out God, smoke dope, take drugs, multiple relationships, raising kids with no boundaries who are more dysfunctional than their parents, & grandkids lost in violence or killing themselves because they feel they don’t have a purpose or entitled! The counter culture elitist created this mess of leading the vulnerable down an abyss who believed in the 60’s Utopia. And this is the result, these adults who couldn’t cope with reality of having to conform & grow up. You notice how a lot of rock musicians aren’t reaching real old age?
paisleyyama many don’t get checks because the social workers can’t seem to find them due to many move around. They’re eligible but they have no way to cash it without some kind of id & if they do, they’re rob as fast as they get that money! They are robbed all the time everyday , all their self dignity. Keep watching theses videos & see how many talk about being robbed all the time out in the streets.
Awww I just found this video, it's a year old already. Is this sweet man still amongst us? He seems like such a good kind hearted man. And this is how the USA treats their veterans?! Shame on the system. I'm in Europe, it's not perfect here either but the veterans are treated with respect and with care. I wish I could help.. But I'm 65 now and don't even live in my own home anymore. It doesn't matter the place you're living in, all human beings deserve the minimum decent life and treatment. Especially veterans.. I feel so sad and outraged seeing so many precious people living on the streets. And disregarded and looked down on by other citizens. Be humble people!!! And kind. You never know what's waiting for you around around the corner. It can happen to any one without warning. The least you can do, if nothing else, is to give some kindness and human warmth. We are all brothers and sisters in humanity and should support each other in the manner given to us. It's the same topo here in Europe.. Sending my Love to you warriors. Keep strong and know you are heroes. ❤️
When I look at him, I see the younger him that scarified his life for his country. I see him thriving and having a beautiful wife and family. I hope God seriously blesses this man!!.
THROWAY BYE The real question is what kind of person he was before becoming homeless? The reason I am saying this because most people don’t pay attention and don’t care until it gets them. You are saying that he will see God, but will God justify killings of innocent people who were just trying to protect their land? I am not trying to be mean, but most of the time soldiers are just puppets. The same people who sent them to wars now made them suffer living on streets. Or perhaps this is how God punishes people who were killing other people. There is difference between defending your country and invading foreign countries.
We're not. USA has a very low quality of life compared to practically every other developed country and even many so called "third-world" countries. Look at our degenerate society drowning in drugs and materialism. Look at our socially isolated and depressed and unfriendly "culture". We lead the developed world in mental illness. Look at our crime and murder rates that are among the highest in the world. Look at our health care system where we pay 100-200 times what the rest of the world pays for health care. America the greatest? LOL!!!! Yeah right.
My God Marvin you are an amazing person. I wish i could help you but i live too far away in Scotland. You have been dealt a shit hand. You deserve the world xxx
When I watch these videos I have a crucial problem...how can I put a like!?'Cause I admire the deep wisdom of these people,most of them,but I dislike so much of their pain and suffer.No one deserves to be homeless,but a man who served his country shouldn"t be homeless at all.First wish,to be himself,this is of a great great wisdom.
If his cancer is related directly to be wounded in service he qualifies for VA benefits and more. His SS will be low due to not paying in much but his VA benefits should be a bit more. He needs to get tot eh VA and get a case worker. It's hard to keep a safety net when folks don't use it.
I feel so bad for him. God I ask you right here to help this man find comfort and rest. Please somehow make things better for him and all homeless people. In Jesus name I pray Amen
koffinkat666 well they have helped me and I could never imagine taking a stance like that. I would help people anyway I can and Jesus is the best way always.
My dad was in the 101st airborne too 🤙 Thank you so much for your service, sir. I only wish that the country you fought hard for could've done more for you 💔
Socks are not enough. He needs housing and we all need to help make that happen! There are tens of thousands of homeless people just like him or worse we need to get inside.
Man, it's one of the most honest revelation I ever heard when he said 'you have no idea'....😭. We come here & watch all these people's stories and then went back to our comfy lifestyle..we definitely have no clue till it happens to us..
I don't mean to sound pedantic, but where are the children and step-children he supposedly raised now? Had he raised them well, not one of them would have allowed him to spend 16 years being homeless. No excuses here possible, because out of all the kids he said he raised, at least one should be capable of helping dad. (At a minimum, his kids could have helped him file paperwork so that DAD can get housed, while housing him in the meantime....It apparently hasn't been done and/or successful.) ALL of his kids should be contributing to his care insofar as possible, in any case. Family values are non-existent in some cases, and this has to be one of the primary factors for homelessness. I hope at least one of his kids reads this comment, and gets his/her DAD off the streets.
We have no idea why. He could have easily run his family off. Or been isolated from them because of some past traumatic thing/things he’s done to them. I’m not disagreeing with you but this like all scenarios is probably very complicated. It’s probably not a coincidence that every single one of his family members is not helping him.
I whish this man lived near to me. So much suffering and he can smile with so much energy. money without Ethics, Moral turns men into something that not even the devil himself can't define.
My wife and I have been homeless sleeping in a train for twelve years in N.Y.C. If you don't develop a sense of humor you're a goner! One thing would help; if you would lend a helping hand, not staring at your cellphone and give a little help and not to the hustlers who are always pitching!
Nila My wife is disabled without disability and I am retired collecting S.S. and S.S.I.65. I can't work because I am my wife's caretaker. The shelters are impossible and even rooms go for more than 800$ a Mo. if they will rent toa couple (which we can't afford) We rest well most nights in the train but it's not like sleeping on a bed. I can't go anywhere where I would need to drive either. The hustlers have ruined begging for people who are really in need. Many years ago we did not have youthful hustlers all over but now it is at epidemic levels.
S.j. sparber I drive for a Medicare company and drive people w similar stories in rockland county. Have you ever tried coming up this way? I’ve seen many people they help.
This is extremely impressive to see, person with countless number of health issues, some very painful and server… but yet doesn't complain about it, even his body language or attitude is so positive, you can see its literally its radiating from his face, also he can articulate things so well and humours under such circumstance...hes not even pretending to be happy but he is naturally happy! My life will be happy even if I can understand 20% of what he has understood!
I’ve been homeless for 18 months in London. Currently in temporary accommodation but still going from place to place with the kids and I wish wish wish I could do something to help this guy. There are people who will watch this video who can help this guy but won’t just feel sympathy and move on to the next video. This world is so cruel.
I'm probably like most viewers. I watch, I cry, I do nothing. But I will support this channel when I can and I encourage others to so too! We can do this together! FOR THE REAL GENUINE HUMANS
This is incredibly heartbreaking a veteran 😢🥺with cancer and other medical conditions homeless...he seems to have an amazing positive spirit I wish there was a go fund me or someway to help him 🙏🏼
So intelligent, a Hero, now slowly dying.. such a shame to see... we take so many things for granted I feel as we call a “normal life”. He’s smiling through all the stuff he’s saying... he has a huge heart and so much love inside of him. God bless man!
This is unacceptable. How can we call ourselves civilized is what i read in a previous comment. Great question. Thousands walk by him and other thousands of homeless daily. If everyone either gave money, or offered a hand up in some way this man would be off the street. We look away as A society. We bustle by. To busy to be bothered, or just repelled in general. If compassion was as prominent as anger in most people's lives, no one would be homeless.
This is incredibly heartbreaking a veteran 😢🥺with cancer and other medical conditions homeless he seems to have an amazing spirit I wish there was a go fund me or someway to help him 🙏🏼
We need to treat our Veterans with dignity. Housing, medical, and food.🇺🇸🇺🇸God Bless you and thank you for serving our country. He will, His promises are true.
You guys are my inspiration. We gone through small small trouble everyday and afraid of tomorrow. You're so calm and happy with level 3 Cancer. Goss wish I could be same fearless like you !

税收太重了,人们无法承受如此重的税收。民主党政府腐败渎职。他们想高税收,他们想掌握一切资源,掠夺人民。高税收摧毁商业,人们失业流浪街头。民主党人却掌握资源,他们想控制奴役人。他们不但想腐败,更想剥夺人的自由。

Bless you all 😊
Thank you for giving him care..
Thank you
If he still comes in I've got his next few meals.
Send me a DM jim.
The words veteran and homeless should never go together.
AMEN BROTHER!!!!!!!!!
No one should be homeless in America, but sadly teens and veterans, make up the majority of the homeless here.
Yang2020.com/veterans
Well government causes both of these problems but most people arent interested in real solutions
The word homeless doesn't go with anything.
This man served for 8 years in the 101st Airborne - one of the most decorated units in history - probably not a unit you get into without being talented, smart and brave - and this is how his government treats him.
His life must be hell on earth but he keeps a good attitude. Amazing man!
lol.
just a panhandler that doesnt want to do much beyond watch the pretty girls all day.
Nah, thats just for the camera. When people aint looking, hes peobably already cried his eyes out. But he aint fonna show it. Stay strong my man!!
PLEASE HELP HIM GET OFF THE STREETS....WHT A BEAUTIFUL SOUL!!!!
why don't you
I need your help.
This man FOUGHT FOR HIS COUNTRY. the government should bow their heads in shame. Such a humble man. Such grace.
A wonderful example of an unbreakable spirit.
Thank You for doing everything you do and bringing an awareness.
More than awareness please join in finding solutions to help others
It can happen to the best of us. I was homeless for 4 years thankfully, I had a car and a lot of places to couch surf. Bless this man. 🙂❤️👍✌️🙏🇺🇸
The car is HUGE. Means a good night's sleep, a job and cash at least to eat.
TJ Marta yes it helped I didn’t always have one but most of the time I did and even if I couldn’t find work cleaning houses, etc, I would drive ppl places for money. I did a lot of cleaning and sometimes stocking beer coolers for small stores. Thankfully, I never had to sleep outside, I was very blessed. 🙂
@@AmericanAmy God bless you, Amy. Stay strong.
TJ Marta thank you I am good now but who knows I could lose it all again, anyone could. 🙂
Went through the same thing and it would have been much more difficult without a car.
This man is a increadable inspiration. What a very kind soul. God bless him.
This man reminds me of my partner who died recently. She had horrific health issues caused by a stroke but never stopped smiling and laughing. Some people have an incredible inner light that nothing will dim. God bless you Marvin
This man deserves so much more. Vet with multiple purple hearts living on the street for almost 2 decades. Incredible
He shouldn’t be on the streets I don’t understand how anyone who served our country can just be thrown away like this! This makes me sad 😞
Because we are just used for war for their money and power they don't even care for you all they want is your hard earn money by taxing you for everything and if you don't pay them they will have men with guns and throw you into prison and take your home and then put you into prison so they can make money off of you while in there we are nothing to the elites in government.
There are plenty of campers and motorhomes that the poor homeless could be living in. But nowhere to legally park them without paying an arm and a leg.
@@garybrunecz7785 Get together and buy some land and park them there.
The US government just uses people to fight their stupid fights.
Once you deploy to combat and do the dirty work for Uncle Sam, Then he doesnt need you anymore! Face it, all of us Veterans were just pawns in the game!
when you hit the bottom, you're free. such a spiritual teaching - having nothing, being sick... he's totally in the moment.
Shame on the system that failed this man! The same system he protected with his own life! I'm humiliated that I sponsor such a world. I am very sorry brother. Thank you for sharing and protecting your fellow humans. Much love and light ...and turquoise rays of protection cover your spirit. 💛💚❤👣👣
Has skin cancer and wishes for a bathroom and a place to stay. I watch a couple of these Invisible People videos when I need a reality check on how bad my life really is.
Army soliders should never be treated this way doesn't matter which country he from, I salute you Sir
What a comedian. He’s gotta a good sense of humor. At least he’s got that-gotta give him that!
Thanks for serving my man! I appreciate you!
"It's difficult being what I am." That really got to me.
This man diserves so much more. My heart breaks for him

Absolutely disgraceful he was even allowed to be homelss when hes terminally ill. Such a lovely guy deserves better care from the country he served..
This Video BROKE my HEART ,
Mine too, I had been to Denver in 2017, such a pain to watch poor homeless people to suffer in extreme cold !
He is a lovely man with a great attitude, god bless mate.
Totally sad... How it happens in USA, considered one of the most developed nations in the world.

You You don’t say that about someone you don’t know. It’s very rude .
Amazing this man still has a big smile even after all he has been through ! try and help him a little .
Poor man my heart goes out to him, I really hope he's ok 😥😔💙💜
Man, it's one of the most honest revelation I ever heard when he said 'you have no idea'....😭. We come here & watch all these people's stories and then went back to our comfy lifestyle..we definitely have no clue till it happens to us..
I don't mean to sound pedantic, but where are the children and step-children he supposedly raised now? Had he raised them well, not one of them would have allowed him to spend 16 years being homeless. No excuses here possible, because out of all the kids he said he raised, at least one should be capable of helping dad. (At a minimum, his kids could have helped him file paperwork so that DAD can get housed, while housing him in the meantime....It apparently hasn't been done and/or successful.) ALL of his kids should be contributing to his care insofar as possible, in any case. Family values are non-existent in some cases, and this has to be one of the primary factors for homelessness. I hope at least one of his kids reads this comment, and gets his/her DAD off the streets.
We have no idea why. He could have easily run his family off. Or been isolated from them because of some past traumatic thing/things he’s done to them. I’m not disagreeing with you but this like all scenarios is probably very complicated. It’s probably not a coincidence that every single one of his family members is not helping him.
Children are ungrateful. No need to raise them.
Dam step kids aren’t always the most loving because they know you are not their real dad , ex wives don’t make it easy!
How nobody else is doing what you do? Your page is a one of a kind and you are also very kind
Poor man and he’s so positive xx
God bless bless this Man ,what positive happy person even with all his illnesses he still has his humor
I whish this man lived near to me. So much suffering and he can smile with so much energy. money without Ethics, Moral turns men into something that not even the devil himself can't define.
All of those health problems and he can still smile that's unbelievable. God has been with this man the whole time.
My wife and I have been homeless sleeping in a train for twelve years in N.Y.C. If you don't develop a sense of humor you're a goner! One thing would help; if you would lend a helping hand, not staring at your cellphone and give a little help and not to the hustlers who are always pitching!
That's so sad. How do u guys survive? Do y'all work?
Nila My wife is disabled without disability and I am retired collecting S.S. and S.S.I.65. I can't work because I am my wife's caretaker. The shelters are impossible and even rooms go for more than 800$ a Mo. if they will rent toa couple (which we can't afford) We rest well most nights in the train but it's not like sleeping on a bed. I can't go anywhere where I would need to drive either. The hustlers have ruined begging for people who are really in need. Many years ago we did not have youthful hustlers all over but now it is at epidemic levels.
S.j. sparber I drive for a Medicare company and drive people w similar stories in rockland county. Have you ever tried coming up this way? I’ve seen many people they help.
Thank you for your service sir! I’m so sorry you have to go through this! Please keep us updated.
It's a shame people have to go through this.
This is extremely impressive to see, person with countless number of health issues, some very painful and server… but yet doesn't complain about it, even his body language or attitude is so positive, you can see its literally its radiating from his face, also he can articulate things so well and humours under such circumstance...hes not even pretending to be happy but he is naturally happy! My life will be happy even if I can understand 20% of what he has understood!
Pitiful! He served our country. Absolutely ridiculous!
Just incredible how he doesn't seem to be angry/bitter in any way. What a guy.
I’ve been homeless for 18 months in London. Currently in temporary accommodation but still going from place to place with the kids and I wish wish wish I could do something to help this guy. There are people who will watch this video who can help this guy but won’t just feel sympathy and move on to the next video. This world is so cruel.
Hope you & your kids get a permanent home soon. x
Hello, fellow homeless - from California! Keep hanging in there! Praying for us all. God bless!
lizzybee Thank you
Denise Mayosky You too my TH-cam friend 😘
Believe it or not, his words have encouraged me. Tq sir.
Can you make an update on Marvin? how is he doing?
What a sweetie, some people in the streets have a lot more morals and are a lot more spiritual that many in high places! God bless you, brother
God alway's said: "Wasn't going to be easy, but i'll get you through it" bless this man
Wow got my license taken cause if seizures!! This man really gives encourage! Glad to see from Mark! Thanks so much for sharing!
I'm probably like most viewers. I watch, I cry, I do nothing. But I will support this channel when I can and I encourage others to so too! We can do this together! FOR THE REAL GENUINE HUMANS
He has very good teeth. Better than many people. Great soul.
This is incredibly heartbreaking a veteran 😢🥺with cancer and other medical conditions homeless...he seems to have an amazing positive spirit I wish there was a go fund me or someway to help him 🙏🏼
Any updates on this man? Bless his heart he's a courage man , a survivor may God bless him and provide his needs🙌
God bless this vet and everyone else homeless.
Any updates on him? I really loved his energy...
So intelligent, a Hero, now slowly dying.. such a shame to see... we take so many things for granted I feel as we call a “normal life”. He’s smiling through all the stuff he’s saying... he has a huge heart and so much love inside of him. God bless man!
This is unacceptable. How can we call ourselves civilized is what i read in a previous comment. Great question. Thousands walk by him and other thousands of homeless daily. If everyone either gave money, or offered a hand up in some way this man would be off the street. We look away as A society. We bustle by. To busy to be bothered, or just repelled in general. If compassion was as prominent as anger in most people's lives, no one would be homeless.
what än awsome person
Where are his children? Where are the Christians in town? Or Buddists and Jews? Where is the US who he served as a soldier?
This is incredibly heartbreaking a veteran 😢🥺with cancer and other medical conditions homeless he seems to have an amazing spirit I wish there was a go fund me or someway to help him 🙏🏼
I am 30, homeless and turning 31 in two days. I'll give my story on my channel later. Clawing my way out but its tougher than what they say
We need to treat our Veterans with dignity. Housing, medical, and food.🇺🇸🇺🇸God Bless you and thank you for serving our country. He will, His promises are true.
Just sad to watch. God bless him
This guys days should b spent in office for he is truly enlightened
THIS is why the US needs universal health care and and affordable housing, no-one should have to be going through that.
Facts
You guys are my inspiration. We gone through small small trouble everyday and afraid of tomorrow. You're so calm and happy with level 3 Cancer. Goss wish I could be same fearless like you !
Hope he finds help
I pray Lord God Bless this man, this veteran, this son- He's important like many others out there-
