How I became homeless and unbanked in Amsterdam and then became Bitcoin millionaire

in #btc2 years ago

Yes, I am homeless. Unhoused. I am not alone.

In the Netherlands there are 38.000 homeless, growing daily. It can happen to anyone. One day you’ll have a job, a relationship and a bed and before you know it you’re sleeping on coaches, walking the streets ending up on benches or worse.

I have been unhoused since 2019. I came to Amsterdam ten years ago as an au pair. When the family moved, I found myself without a job.

I was stuck in a bad relationship with big money debts. Then I had no money to pay for a room, nor a working bank account, only debt. When I worked all the money automatically disappeared in my debts.

I ended up on the street.

Every day I called friends to ask if I could sleep with them. That was very tiring and shameful. Then I would spend a few nights at a friend’s house, then I would spend a few nights in an attic with an acquaintance.

When you are young and on the street, it is very intense. You are completely on your own. Surviving every moment of the day is hard. I had a lot of fear attacks and could not plan a future.

Always worrying. Getting some money, finding a shelter, a place to eat, something to eat, electricity and free Wi-Fi.

For help there is a waiting list at Dutch organisations. They could not help me, because I was too old or too young. Not stable enough, or not mentally ill enough. Not homeless enough but economic homeless. Help with my debt was impossible. I was always placed on endless lists.

I was desperate. I want nothing more than to have a roof over my head again. I found it impossible to get my life back in order.
