stupidity is so close to poverty

[Stuart_Shook]

stupidity is so close to poverty, do you agree with such a phrase?
if it yes, means the poor are the fools.
I want to know your opinion. 

It`s not exactly stupidity.Not all poor people are stupid.It`s the combitation of being lazy+procrastination+lack of education/knowledge+not enough concentration and discipline+finding too many excuses for everything in your life and blaming everyone else for your misery.
Some rich people are kinda stupid,but they work hard,have discipline and stay focused.

Haha good point. I'd agree, rich people can still lack in the other important skills that are necessary to be truly successful. Just because you have a lot of money doesn't necessarily mean that you've earned it the hard way.

Stupidity is a lack of knowledge, or no desire to obtain that knowledge anywhere. That's what makes people get stuck in certain situations in their lives. They don't see a need to improve or learn more, and therefore have a hard time escaping poverty. Or, they were just born into these conditions and are comfortable where they are. Nothing wrong with that, it's just a preference.

Sometimes it's also a culture. You see your father and mother content with the life that you have, and so you become like them. I mean, why would you grind and work hard if everyone around you is comfortable with just sharing a small fish for dinner? It's PERFECTLY fine to the people around you, why wouldn't it be fine with you? I live in a place where everyone is content with their lives. They are all poor but they are all addicted to gambling. The small amount of money that they are getting from a long day of labor work goes all to gambling. Why? It's because it's the life that their parents lived and was passed on to them. Good thing I'm not originally from this place so I have a totally different mindset. I was raised differently.

rich people can still lack in the other important skills that are necessary to be truly successful.

And what are those skills? Money = Success in this world. No other way. I know that we have different definitions of "success" but you don't see a poor person being called "successful". It really only take you to be exceptionally good at one thing in order to become rich. Become a really good singer, people will come to you, listen to you, and eventually pay to listen to you. All of the other skills becomes secondary like washing the dishes, doing the laundry, etc. Everything that doesn't have a relation with your career becomes secondary at this point. That's why successful people make other people do those things for them. You don't have to have the "other important skills".

Success is a mindset. It is being able to accept things that cannot be changed, and using the power you have to make a difference in the people around you. It's not giving up when something doesn't work the first time. It's being adaptable and flexible to challenging situations. It's finding a way through trying different approaches, even those that you don't agree with. It's giving up your own desires for the good of those around you. Rich people who don't have these skills usually live unhappy lives. Poor people who have these skills usually don't care if they're rich or not. Money is simply another tool.

I know lots of stupid people who are rich and lots of people who shine in life who are poor.

Yes i do agree on that, most of the people who are spreading fake news like cryptocurrencies are scam is just making their life even harder since bitcoins is really profitable because of the market's volatility.

Yes,  stupidity is the reason why many people until now did not escape the poverty because of their attitude. They have not enough strategies on how to earn big amount of money through investment. They always contented the small amount of their salary income that fix already because they always focus on their work.

[yulionoo]

I myself don't agree with your writing. not a few stupid people, who don't understand technology, and they are rich. I think poverty is a test of life. and I prefer to say that poverty and wealth are good luck and hard work. maybe poor people are very easy to despair. I'm sure if people who are stupid want to work hard, surely they will succeed in the end.

[Poorman80]

Stupidity is a human behavior not really connected to your social status and it is the way we are. Rich or poor anybody can be just stupid. There are people whom others thought are stupid and yet have lived a good and happy life  so if that it the case I think it is even better to be stupid. Happiness is more important than riches. Think about that? Do you agree!

[Eigig]

When you are in cryptocurrency there should no stupidity in here ,because all activities in here required good and mentally alert decisions because this is digital one false move everything will be bubble and vanished, so if you are stupid minded then you maybe lost and back to hardship status, instead of improving your life.

[jack wira]

Not all poor people are stupid ... if the poor may not be able to go to school on the faculty, it is because he is poor, but not in the sense that poor people are stupid, I don't agree, bro.

[Kokakolla]

Almost in every developed countries, most of the times they are taught in their offices and schools about to how manage finances in their lives. There must not be heavy and big amount for you to enjoy the life and to manage that empire. But if you have small income and little salary still you have got same desires and needs. So better to learn about manage finance techniques so that things can work better.

[ammo121810]

Well not all poor people are stupid they did not want to grow in a poor family or community there are lots of poir people who have determination to be successful in life and I think that phrase is not that good enough because there are also rich people who are stupid it just depends on how people live their lives wether they are rich or poor.

[Neraj Evad]

In the world of crypto , stupidity should be eliminated ,because in working with crypto and you are being stupid then your inveztment may no where to go but it will be a failure and you will start again from the beginning, so in crypto be wise enough in your investment so that it will gain much as possible.

I still believe in the saying that if you were born poor, it's never your fault but if you died still poor, it's definitely your fault.

[cesuralp32]

I never thought we would agree with you. I think you are right. people are not as intelligent as they are greedy, unfortunately. if you want to raise your standard of living, you should use your brain. otherwise you will have to use your muscles.

i think for those who use brain will be more fortunate than those who use muscle, it can be seen in financial terms. therefore we must be clever to take advantage of opportunities to get the desired results

[Rsamunios]

 I think this is based on the personality of a person or an individual. I still believe in the saying that if you were born poor, it's never your fault but if you died still poor, it's definitely your fault.
Some are so stupid to allow themselves be part of the poverty line.

[dodgi]

Of course close if you like to play casino

[sidodadii]

its not 100%. fools must be poor, but poor people are not necessarily stupid. sometime you will see poor but they are smart (in some or all field). riches cant be measured by fool or diligent. and all people have their own ways to create their line to reach riches. and riches its not only about money.

[gentlemand]

Intelligence and monetary savvy are totally, totally separate things.

The richest guy I know can barely hold a coherent conversation. I don't think he can read or write. He is however very, very shrewd and can spot an opportunity where others can't.

The most intelligent person I ever knew has been skint her entire life and will stay that way.

And no matter what your intellectual capacity is, some people are simply born doomed when it comes to money. I've seen otherwise clever people make the most wretched decisions when it comes to money and I know perfectly well they learnt nothing and would do it again.

You either know how make it, ration it and maintain it, or you don't. I don't think it's a behaviour pattern most people can learn. They either can or they can't.

[Rajamuda]

In general, it can be said like that's because stupidity.. can cause laziness, short in steps and reluctant to fight hard to have many steps to try to be rich/have a lot of money. But that doesn't mean that the poor today they are stupid, it could be because of other factors that could make they poor. We know in a life, there are many accidents from certain factors/the others thing that can make to be poor

[Ayencyet79]

If you are stupid then you may be poorer than you are smart then you need to know what makes you richer as well as you know how to do more.
