I’m wondering if the best way to see who your real friends are is to be homeless.
I’ve heard that many lose their friends when they become homeless. In short, people just don’t care. And I guess their friends suddenly see them as nothing as well.

We live in a society governed by economics, so when the economic disparity between individuals widens, they cannot share the same link in the same echelon of society. Eg, if you and I loved to watch movies together, and you become homeless, we can’t watch movies anymore unless I pay for you. Humans are social animals — we shouldn’t expect them to act otherwise.
If you are not homeless (I’m assuming you’ve never been homeless by reading this)
I would strongly advise against forcibly making yourself homeless as a social experiment.
I hear what you are saying though and I think I understand.
I have come extremely close to being homeless, thankfully I have only slept the streets one night in my life but it is one of my worst fears. I see homeless people whenever I set foot outside my door.
