To me this seems more than shortsighted. The decision to do this seems almost like the manic stage of bipolar disorder. The depression the YouTuber falls into almost instantly into the experiment adds to that suspicion. I think on the first(second?) day the YouTuber is breaking down from the idea of sleeping on the street - surely he anticipated that? The almost complete absence of any attempts to make some money bar a hare-brained buy-sell craiglist scam, which wasn't explored nearly enough on it's own to gauge its viability, seems slightly disordered also. I knew it would fail, but being unable to get off the streets is a remarkable failure. I think he simply didnt want to get a regular job to get stable housing and instead thought he was going to make 50k in the first month sitting in a public library.
