The basis of being a poor- how little or how big? Awhile ago, there was a study done on infants which were born addicted to hard drugs. Their final conclusion was that being born into poverty is a far more debilitating and crippling condition than being born addicted to crack or assorted hard drugs. The mentalities, attitudes, conditions and values which lead to people being in poverty could be contagious and harmful to human development. And so being born into that environment and being in constant contact with those living that life could have severe negative effects upon a person's mindset, attitude and soul. That's the best I can come up with atm. I totally agree. Like they always say generally, you are your environment. On a normal day, you get challenged by the people you see around you either negatively or positively and since we know that poverty has a way of secluding those in that category into a particular space, we tend to see them accepting that life, believing that is their own fate and then move on with how they just see things. It would really take someone who gets lucky, or was able to have this inbuilt challenging spirit to be able to get out of it, most especially when exposed to such environment from birth.

A human need of survival extends to the growth of a family, of the certainty in achieving a prosperous life. Yet what's really the basis of being a poor? Talking about the significance of money comes along with how much a family earned daily, weekly, monthly or even a year. Constant with the changing society is the changes in the field of market factors such that increased in demand grows above rate.
Weighing on how little... is how little do we earned, how little we are as a whole, and how little the world could turn upside down in just a second. Economically, for someone to be called a poor isn't based upon the money itself, but the reality that a person experiences every day such that even how big you are if you're still trying to come forward just a little step is a lot difficult compared to the others is basically the poor one.
For me I still say it’s how much you have that makes you poor or rich. What are we all working for if not money? If you don’t have that money where it is enough, then you’re poor. Well, you’re right on what you said about being rich depends on how they are able to tackle their problems etc. But you shouldn’t neglect the fact that money is the main thing there, it is how much you have that determines whether you will be able to face your problems of not.

Being poor means you are lazy and lack of initiative to augment your status. You are not planning your family's future. Poor for me is not having your children go to school and let them be able to reach their goal.

in fact I do not agree if people who do not have a car or do not have said to be poor. Yes, you are right. we do have to see it from another perspective. that is, people who can still make ends meet, they are not poor. poor people are people who have no home, and they ask for money from others.

The basis of the poor has many factors. Many children are born poor because their parents are unlucky in business. But I think the poor are 30-35 years old, that is because they have not tried to have a better future. They let go of themselves and that keeps them poor.

Well, as for the standard definition of being poor, it would mean not being able to make ends meet and being penniless. It would actually depend on someone's perspective whether someone is poor on not because if you are living in a city wherein everyone in the neighbor hood has a car and you have none then you can be considered poor to them but if you go to the province and most people in there are just getting by and you are earning well compared to them then you are considered well off for them. It is about being below average in a place wherein you can be considered poor or not.

Dude, I say money is the key to everything. Money place a huge role when you talk about poor's growth. Just sit and think what is the backbone of every incident. You need money to take a further step more than your will power and confidence. I do accept that self motivation, encouragement, will power and what so ever, are indeed needed to boost up yourself. But how this comes? When you penetrate upon, you will find money is the key to solve everything. Money will be one of the main stuff you would end up with. I do agree not all rich gentlemen have chance to enhance their knowledge on their own desired subject, but they do have opportunity to have so, but poor do lack back to even make the opportunity. Reflect on it. You will find out basic necessity of a poor.

Poverty is about not having enough money to fund basic needs - food, shelter, clothing. It is hunger, lack of night shelter, it is being sick and not being able to see a doctor. It is not having access to school and not knowing how to read. Poverty is not having a job, is fear for the future, living one day at a time.
And most of the time when we say poor, we don't mean that. We mainly mean we lack money for recreational activities and a better life. But it can get worse.

of course we can change poverty if we have intention, determination and always try. lots of ways to make money without spending too much money. For example, as we work in the crypto world with only a small amount of capital and internet networks, we can get money and change our lives for the better.

In addition to this a lot of people who lived in abject poverty could have avoided it if the government in those countries live up to expectations, there are countries that lacked the basic infrastructures needed to avoid poverty eg lack of regular electricity supply, lack of skill acquisition centres etc these basic infrastructures if put in place could reduce poverty.

It is about being below average in a place wherein you can be considered poor or not. Then by today's standard someone living in a wooden hut in the woods would be considered poor, even if that person has his own garden, water source, solar panels to provide electricity, and is living on his own piece of land. It's funny how the world changes. 100 years ago nobody would call that man poor. Now if you don't have a car and a mobile phone people are treating you like a caveman.

It is also how you spend it. If you are basing money as to identify richness then it is also how you will manage yourself. If you look at every place there are things that we dont really need and yet we buy it. Survival is the real deal and yet we want smartphones, computers and an airconditioned house just so we could say we aint poor.
That is not it. As long as you can eat everyday even with the smallest amount of salary then you can say you are still on ths right track. You just need to step up withh your job and stay with the lifestyle that you are from the start.

Reading this topic, for some reason I began to remember my friends who lived below the poverty line until they became acquainted with the cryptocurrency market. Many engaged in bounty and in a short time were able to overcome their financial difficulties. This proves once again that poverty is not karma and can be overcome if you look for options to make money.

Being poor doesn't really mean that you should be a beggar. If you have difficulties providing your needs and your salary or income is below than what is usual, you can be considered poor. It isn't really something to argue about. It is clear to see the difference between the rich and the poor. The rich ones who suffered a lot about money doesn't mean they are actually poor, it is just a matter of a choice for them to spend their money wisely or not.
I think being poor is subjective term depending on the person. If you are a minimum wage worker in some third world country making less than 1 dollar per hour and need to take care of your family with that money that's a global way of saying you are poor. However if you used to be a millionaire and now you bankrupted and still have a house and need to go to work and make a decent salary that's "poor" for your old standards. Poor can be different in everyone's situation, for example I feel like I am much more poorer than I used to be, when bitcoin was going up I was living luxurious but now I need to work hard to pay the bills but that "poor" I feel is nowhere near the minimum wage worker with 2 kids so its subjective.

The basis of poor is simple he don't have enough savings or investment which can secure him better standard of living...
I do not agree to this allusion because for me, I don't see being poor as not having money in cash or at all, or not having investments. I rather see poor as the lack in every spear of life, example, knowledge, political connection, health, charismatic and influential etc. Have we not heard or seen rich people who don't know how to use their money to influence people? People would rather dance to the tune of a poor man who is an orator rather than a wealthy man more like a moron? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Have we not heard of poor gate attendant who connects people to jobs/employments ? Have we not heard of poor man whose phone contacts is filled with high and mighty? In other words, being poor sometimes is not only when you don't have investments but when you can't help yourself or others. Honestly it is not as big as you might think, the survival instinct in humans are much bigger than you think. For example the refugees from Syria has been breeding almost ten times faster than what Syria used to breed. That means these people who had to run away from their country because there is a war going on there has been getting bigger and bigger and most women have been pregnant thru all of this Syria conflict. If people can breed and populate while they are running away from a war and applying as refugee and barely surviving on what people give them, I am sure even the "poor" of any regular country can "survive".

for me, the basis of being poor is you don't know how to handle your money. eventually, it will have a big impact in your life and in your family. you will have no savings, no emergency funds. you will not have a secured future. as they said, being born as a poor is not your fault, but it is when you die as a poor.

Well I have a totally different view on being poor or rich. I may not have car, mansion and hectares of land or millions in my bank account but I dont consider my self as poor. Someone might have all of those but still full of debts in the bank, I cannot call them rich too. Someone may earn $3000 a month in a particular country and yet still having negative at the end of the month because of too high cost of living and still one from a different country may earn $1000 a month but still manage to save 20-40% of it is still richer than the one who earn $3000 a month. So i believe it is not in the numerical figures we get monthly and the material possessions we have.
