OP: Definitely call the guy who said he could use a personal assistant in LA, for starters. That seems like one of your best options right now.
If you want to rebuild through poker and can't find a single backer who wants your action, head over to Part Time Poker (am I allowed to post URLs here?), create an account, and set up a BAP. There is already a thread there pointing to this one and a lot of the people posting ITT are PTPers. Set up a BAP for low limit SNGs or even $50 or $100 NL cash games, and I think you'll sell it out.
Find me over there and I'll even volunteer my time to help you learn your way around and get things going - it can be a bit of a learning curve.
I believe this is real (I hope I am wrong, but I do) and feel for your situation. Sounds like you are a good guy in a bad spot. Be smart and you'll get back on your feet without doing anything you'll always regret.
I do have a couple of questions though, if you don't mind:
1. When you were living in your car, why not park in a safer neighborhood?
2. If you are working 2 jobs now and looking for #3, how much money are you earning? I saw you post your expenses earlier ITT and it doesn't seem like it should take all that many hours, even at minimum wage, to earn enough to at least keep a roof over your head.
3. This one is just a statement, not a question: It should be inhale slow
LY, not inhale slow. Adverb.
Best of luck.
