Reading George Orwell's "Down and out in Paris and London" is more
enlightening ;-)

Me too.
When I was in my late teens I was unemployed and semi-homeless and I often
spent days without eating because of want of money.
I also did occasional casual work as a catering assistant- a "plongeur"- in
London hotels- I have also collected cigarette ends from the street, exactly
as Orwell, and the London tramps did as they marched from spike to spike.
"Down and out in Paris and London" is a fascinating and easily-readable
novel and I'd recommend it to anyone.
