If you want to write a character as being homeless, I'm not going to say you need to do real research on the topic (mainly because the details of homelessness vary massively from one place to another, and it's hard to find specific information without, like, actually interviewing someone who is or who has been homeless?), but please, for the love of god, USE SOME SENSE!
A homeless guy might well make money off busking! He might have an instrument that he took with him when he lost his home! It might even be quite a valuable instrument! IT'S NOT GOING TO BE AN UPRIGHT PIANO!!!
A teenager who's living rough could do worse than go dumpster diving behind a nice restaurant, it's true. He could indeed find a fair amount of food in quite good condition. But unless this kid is very, very stupid, or is looking to become really, really sick, he should very much not eat the roast chicken he finds. Please.

Funny you should say that--Santa Cruz, California has or used to have entire homeless bands busking downtown and my mouth dropped open when I saw the dude with the piano. I assume since it's hippie central someone let him store it somewhere off the street when he wasn't playing it. But yeah, that's definitely not practical.
