stupidity is so close to poverty

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. 

just an arrogant people said that poor is fools, fools is someone who doesn't want to learn about anything in their life although they are rich
some poor people not lazy to learn about anything in their life, learn by autodidact no need the money so its can make knowledge in their life

and i think there is no relationship between stupid and fools 

[Gotumoot]

I do not agree with what you say because it is not stupidity  to be poor.

Not everyone is poor, because they are poor in lack of self-confidence, and of course the money that controls our lives, they must prefer to be poor and they do not focus on becoming richer simple life is important to them which means that they are happier with their love ones that the true meaning of rich for them is to have time with your family.

[DaftAjax]

<....> it looks like they are encouraging population explosion.

From what I can tell, they believe that: more population = more manpower = more production = development.

They think too general, they neglect the simple things, and simple things are the start of a big difference. Educating people from scratch is not easy yet not difficult at the same time. But before teaching them proper education, how about teaching them proper values, discipline and such.

[Blackdeath]

Stupidity or being ignorant is not the main reason why there are poor people. In my own opinion, laziness and being hopeless is the reason why people could not reach their goals because they are grinding, trying, or working hard too much for them to develop themselves to become a successful person.

But there are those who are born in poverty which is not their choice. Also, take Africa as an example where the people are forced to live in poverty and can’t do anything about it because their basic rights especially with education are not given to them. It is by the corrupt politicians we turn along with the opportunistic people playing behind the scenes. You are lucky to have been born especially in a country where the government had provided you protection of your basic rights and needs as well as I.

You're absolutely right.I would also like to point to India as an example.Where a very large number of people live in poverty simply because they were born into a poor family.It's very cruel really.

Stupidity makes some poor
lack of imagination makes some poor
laziness makes some poor
Being content with nothing makes some poor.
Having no goal or no dreams makes some poor.

There is a guy next to me now, he's life's goal is to drink beer every-time he is awake, i have known him for the past 8 years and he knows nothing about value for money, as long as he has beer he goal is complete, he is 28 years old, talk about the  inlaws.

Being poor is not bad but staying poor and being useless while someone can be productive in many ways is truly criticized. No one should waste himself. When a person does not work, peace and happiness eventually gets out of his life. There are many people like the guy you related here who live aimless life. For instance, people who are still unaware of bitcoin definitely don't care much about their future. However, their complaints remain always high.

[Palider]

Stupidity is not close to poverty and I see it is not connected. It is not why you are poor now because you are stupid, Often the "poverty" itself does not bring us up. Because How can we pay for a big tuition if we are poor and how can we get a stable and professional job if we do not reach college?

Haha it doesn't really means exactly the same but it means tha t after living 40 years of your life you still haven't been able to get out of your stage of poverty then definitely there is a problem with you. Moreover in this ultra age of communication it's easier for everyone to fetch a job because knowledge is literally available in abundence all over the web for free.

If there's  a will then there's a ways, people who will continue to strive and try things much harder will soon find success. There's always possibilities
if you will look in the right way, The chance are equal but to those who are keen they got the advantage while those who are not being lucky there's
no progress and they will keep the same fate.

Yes, it is close but that doesn't mean that all poor people are stupid. It is that some people are lazy. There are also some who are afraid to take risks and are staying in their safe zone. Lack of discipline is also another reason why some people are poor, also self-pity and negativity in life contributes to being poor. Stupidity comes in different forms by the way. Many rich people are also stupid and fools.

Stupid and poor if in a macro space they have a causal relationship. But in reality there are things that can be considered stupid but actually very intelligent. Most people think that investing is smart but actually investing and engaging in labor have the same performance. Take a look at our crypto investors. Where have they been this time? They have made a lot of losses and nothing is good for them compared to someone who has no knowledge of crypto. One person spends all of his savings on investment and fails. The other doesn't do anything, they just try to feed themselves. Eventually both failed the same.
In my homeland I have the saying: Where ignorance is bliss, it's folly to be wise. This statement I feel quite accurate.

I disagree, although it is true stupidity can bring to life in poverty, but not absolute ignorance factor that makes a person poor, there are many factors for example lazy work, lazy looking for something that makes itself can change More advanced and certainly easy to give up.

If a person is born poor then definitely it is not his fault as no human being can really decide where would he be after his birth. However, if a person stays poor and dies in this state, then he should only blame himself for every down and pit of life. For instance, people who are not investing in bitcoin but know about it and witnesses how capable it is, cannot blame anyone else in future for same financial status.

But being born in coalesce with poverty is also having a low chance in life, believe me. I've seen some hardworking poor people still they were not able to die being rich or at least an average state civilian. We can't totally blame them for their fate, we can't blame anybody for their fate. Like cryptocurrency, we cannot blame people not using it or those who even does not believe on it.

Not true at all, if they don't succeed in their life, maybe they are not hardworking at all, maybe they are working and doesn't have any goals in life, working without any goals is just a dream, and it will be forever. The problem about most of the poor people is that they are contented on what they have in life, depending on others, that is why it is better to work smart than to work hard.

Work smart and have your goals every single day to keep you moving, to be able to lift yourself up in the streets for being homeless, founder of Alibaba, Jack Ma, was from a very poor family, but look at him now, he is a living proof that being poor is not enough to bring you down if you have goals in your life.

Work hard while working smart, you can make money out of nothing if you will use your head. Most of the successful person are came from nothing. They use their intelligence for their to earn money. They say that it is not a problem if you born poor but it is a problem if you die poor. Focus on imroving your skills and knowledge for you to become a better person.

I disagree, saying the fool is a disaster that will be close to poverty.

In real world life, there are no fools in all fields, a fool has one skill that must be in his possession, except crazy people.

Example:
1. A fool in the school section, but in the business section he is very smart and vice versa.
2. fools in the planning section, but he's very good at building, and so on.

I am a little mistaken in saying stupid people are close to poverty.

You should read more about the story of a fool becoming rich.

1. 5 Reasons Stupid People Make More Money Than You

2. 5 Common Mistakes Smart People Make

I think you can be a little contemplated that your estimates are very wrong.

[Gyfts]

It's extremely close and people, specifically politicians, are more willing to blame the system for why people are poor rather themselves because it constitutes easy votes. The easiest way to be propelled into the middle class is stay in school and not have a baby out of wedlock. People being stupid with finances is not something that the government can fix and it isn't something that any governmental body is going to fix. Out spending more than what you make at a dead end job with no future or progression is going to cause poverty no matter how many handouts anyone has to give. I'm not saying there aren't environmental factors that would cause someone to be stuck in poverty, like illness, but the majority of cases of poverty come down to money mismanagement and stupidity.

[Sadlife]

Some people are poor because of various different factors , responsibilities is often one of the biggest obstacles in becoming rich cause sometimes you have to shoulder your parents, relatives and friends financial problems its either emergency or debt or school expenses. No matter how good the school you graduated from, it will be meaningless if you can't find a job suitable to your course yet politicians who thinks highly of themselves blames their constituents for being poor when its actually the country's economy that's so poor because of corruption and no job opportunities.

Not so sure that this is so close nor connected. there are a lot of stupid people out there and have different types of stupidity they did. how could you know that stupidity is connected in to poverty? everyone have it's own hard work and it is base on how it paid for. so basically we need to work more harder or more wiser to get out of this difficult life.

The answer is partially yes because stupid people can make inherit money/properties/assets or win a lottery but there are 99% chances that the money shall soon leave them or they shall soon loose all the money to the wiser  folks.

[Carreuh]

I don't agree with the topic that you wrote down, we can get rid of that ignorance by learning and that ignorance will not make us niskony, what actually makes us poor is laziness, who doesn't want to move forward, but only does things that are not beneficial for  himself or others, and lazy at work
