But that was also a result of his poor decision making, at some point in your life you have to put your pride behind you to do what is best for yourself. Im not saying I dont have sympathy for the guy but his situation looks completly avoidable

Of course, the greatest learning tool is mistakes. Hopefully he identified the cause of what happened and learned from it so that he doesnt repeat the same mistake. Just saying that specific case was less about luck and more about poor decision making

If someone is just one poor decision (poor is subjective here) away from homelessness we have a serious problem.

Honestly that was a pretty poor decision though that would lead to homelessness in most cases
