Did You Know?
Success rarely happens overnight, but
you still might be surprised at some of
the well-known people who have been
homeless. According to a CNN report,
some of the celebrities who
experienced homelessness before
making it big include Jim Carrey, whose
family lived in both a tent and a VW
bus; Drew Cary, who sold plasma for
$40.00 to scrape together money to buy
boxed macaroni and cheese; financial
guru Suzi Orman, who once lived out of
her van; and Dr. Phil, who lived in a car
with his father as a youngster while his
dad interned as a psychologist.
