While many people now know Steve Harvey as a worldwide celebrity comedian and "Family Feud" host, he didn't always live the charmed life he leads now. In fact, he had a difficult start to his career.

At age 27, Harvey had just begun his comedy career. Little did he know that three years later, he would be a homeless man for three years. He has turned his struggle into inspiration for those in a similar situation.

On Monday, November 7, Harvey spoke to Twitter and said that he was living in his car from the ages of 30 to 33. He emphasized the importance of never giving up on your dreams. He said he made $50 a week on comedy and had no place to call home.

Eventually, his comedy gigs led to him landing the hosting position on "Showtime at the Apollo." From there, he got his own TV show called "The Steve Harvey Show." Harvey was almost 40 when he landed his own TV show.
