Self-esteem comes from within. YOU have to belive in yourself to gain it. YOU have to say to yourself that you are better than the people making fun of you and YOU are more than what they call you.
Also, who cares if they get what they want? You have everything you need. You have 3 square meals a day, a place to sleep, and you are free from most illnesses. You are better off than most of the rest of the world. So what if you do not get the latest and greatest game system? The world is not going to end. You will not die. You might just get it later.
About these people making fun of you, can you kick their arse? If so, do not be afraid to defend yourself. Do not cause trouble, but do defend yourself. It will show them that they should stop. Trust me, after you pick up a guy by the neck with one hand and tell him that you will make him regret his choices, they stop.
But really man, you have to believe in yourself more. If you can't do that, then noone will. Ever.
Tell me this, how old are you?
