If you woke up tomorrow homeless, with no money, family, friends, network or possessions, how would you rebuild a life?

  • Go to a police station to make a police report that I lost my ID card.

  • Bring police report to local govt office to make new ID card. They can forego the fee for the ID card if I can convince them it wasn't my fault for losing my ID card. If I need to pay for the ID card, I'll wait until I have the funds to make the ID card. I'll use the police report as my identification for now.

  • At the same time, check with the above two on the locations of homeless shelters. I have no idea where the homeless shelters are here. Homeless people are very rare here.

  • Register at the above homeless shelters. If successful, I will have a place to sleep and shower.

  • If not, sleep and shower at local beaches/parks.

  • I could get arrested for sleeping in public. This solves the sleeping and food issue for the period I am arrested for. Plus, if I get arrested for sleeping in public, I will most probably be directed to a homeless facility. Win-win.

  • Homeless shelter should have link to charity organisations to get clothes.

  • For food, find location of Sikh temples and eat there for free. Spend a couple of hours volunteering there to show appreciation for the food.

  • Start networking at the homeless shelter, charity organisations and Sikh temples. Use these networks to look for jobs.

  • I will most probably get cash paying labour intensive jobs first. Start from there to raise funds to pay for ID card.

  • Second thing I will buy will be a cheap bicycle for transport.

  • Constantly continue networking to find a job with monthly salary.

  • Once salary job is secured, approach local government housing office and apply for local governtment housing.

  • I will be put on a waiting list for government housing rental.

  • While waiting for govt housing rental, rent a room.

Fast forward

  • Secure govt housing rental.

  • Climb up career ladder.

  • Purchase govt housing.

New life rebuilt. Insert coin to continue.
