Awesome story man, props to you for taking a leap of faith. Slightly questionable morals living out of the hackerspace, but it sounds like its working out for you. Best of luck with your site and everything!

Thanks man! I do feel bad about the hackerspace so I plan on donating and getting a membership when I get more money. It is an awesome group of people that I genuinely enjoy being around so I would like that place to stay open and free for everyone else the way it was for me.

Awesome man, glad to hear you are planning on paying it back. What else do you want to do with CrowdDare? Any other ideas for getting PR for it?

I spent a few months living in a coworking space as well. Exhausting is right. I managed to keep it a secret but the most exhausting part of the entire thing was lying to each and every person that I knew- (I was ashamed to be in that situation in the first place so I didn't tell anyone, and would pretend to live one town away.)

That's pretty much how I felt too. It is humiliating and humbling at the same time.

Hey, I'm the Director of Development for Hacker Dojo. I know your pain, I've been homeless before too, but we seriously just got out of zoning trouble with the city of Mountain View, so to everybody who might be temped to take a similar leap of faith: please don't crash in the Dojo. I respect that we all have problems, but heaping them on somebody else is pretty unexcellent.

And Kris: have a super awesome day bro, and best of luck with CrowdDare.
