Why do people stay poor?

[ivankoh]

Much Debt:  few people will have this situation make their life difficult and really hard to go up.  One of the cases I met was that they were poor even though they couldn't afford a roofed house in the rainy and windy season, I asked them why they didn't take out a loan from the bank to repair the house, they replied that they had  too much debt and can't turn the money to pay them and so on.  The reality is that the rich still have debt, but they always have the ability to pay it off, but the poor do not.  It makes them unable to get out of that mentality.

The cause of poverty lies, first and foremost, in our thinking and upbringing. If, as a child, parents form an image of failure, telling the child that he is someone who cannot, that he will never succeed, then what can we expect from such a child when he grows up? Nothing worthwhile.

While on the other hand, that might even spur the child to do more even when the parents didn't believe in him or her. Some children might use that as a means of motivation to get back at the parent for not being in them. However, OP's question about people staying poor could be because there are no means for them to get out of that position. A poor person can only start to change that position if they have the means to start up something that will change that which would normally be financing.

I have always wanted to ask this question is it that there is no opportunity or they do not want to get rich
Mate please more to this I am confused here.

I am not sure why this question is there but obviously, it has got to do with something called an attitude toward their life. If a poor person is not getting rich or let us say they are not growing their lifestyles then definitely they are used to the current one. Such people lose value for good and sometimes they also brag about their poorness everywhere and do nothing about it.

I have seen beggars and to be honest, some of them are very young, with good bodies and health yet they would just sit and beg for money. I hate to break it, but they could really get any job they want in the labor line and earn a decent fortune or at least minimum wage.

When it comes to poor, you can say they are at least having even better life as compared to the beggars and if they are not doing anything about it, then they are themselves not motivated, don't value their lives that all.

Everyone certainly wants a lot of wealth. so do lower and middle class people. they all continue to struggle to raise their standard of living to be higher, namely to become wealthy people. but everyone's career journey is always different. some are running smoothly and some are full of obstacles.

However, I think that to become wealthy, what we need to prepare is a strong mentality, high knowledge, not giving up easily and having the courage to take risks.

Taking risk is part of becoming rich.

You'll see how all of those rich people that have taken the biggest risk of their lives and they do understood that if what they're about to do becomes a failure, they just have to start somewhere else.

But with that big leap of faith, they've taken the risk and those that have become successful managed to reach their goal and made them rich. It may look as easy as it is but the real thing isn't, there's a ladder for success and you may take one step at a time.

Taking risks is not enough, you must have enough factors such as solid psychology, knowledge, and not give up before all difficulties...If you take a risk and invest in something you don't know what it is, you will never succeed, even if you risk a hundred times more. 

Success or becoming rich is an extremely arduous journey, sometimes we have applied it all, but there is no guarantee that we will succeed. But if we just wait for luck to come and do nothing, getting rich will never come to us.

There were people that have said that luck is also part of being rich. Well, it is at least for them but those who have worked hardly and eventually did all the work smartly, they won't make any excuses with all that they've done.

Taking risk might not be enough for you but it's really part of the journey.

The lessons that you'll have upon taking those risks that others didn't do, you'll have something to share based on how you've experienced every difficulties upon taking it.

Choosing the hardship at the beginning then enjoying it eventually is music to ears for them because they all know that it's not going to take long until they benefit from it.

They stay poor either they like to be poor. I know this sounds weird but even many rich do also wanted to experience what is like to be poor. I've seen many celebrities who left the city, their careers and live a simple life in the mountains or on the rural places. That is because when you are poor, you have less commitment and less stress.

Meanwhile, there are people who are poor and wanted to get out of poverty but they always fail of doing so. That is because it is not easy to become rich. It needs some resources or capital such as money, skill and knowledge. It's useless if you have one or two of them but still lack the other because you won't still succeed.

what you convey is quite interesting but it seems that it also happens in life. because the richer and more successful we are, the greater the burden of life we ​​carry, the higher the things we need to think about that will make a person experience depression and stress. so do not be surprised if sometimes we actually see things that are done by rich people who instead act simply and imitate people who do not have. there is one figure of a rich man in my country where he chooses to live a more relaxed and simple life. even wherever he goes to the mall or when he walks he always looks a little strange, like only wearing shorts. The character of the rich man is named Bob Sadino. he is a successful businessman who inspires many people. and I also read a lot of his stories.

But most of those poor doesnt really like on what status they are currently in, it is really just that they arent really that given up opportunity due to the fact or reality that competition on getting a job
is high plus when it  comes on having a capital on making up some investment then they'll surely lacking and when it comes to knowledge then they do lack education.

Lots of things been lacking and this is why no matter what they do, they would be failing and this is why some are just ended up on giving up and contented on what they currently have now.
For some they might be able to succeed but only a few in numbers who do able to do so.

We've seen rich people not live in pleasure with a burden of mind and often experience depression, they are worried that their business will go bankrupt and they are not willing if their income will decrease in the next month, whatever they think is related to money throughout their life. So only the rich wear simple clothes and mingle with everyone regardless of economic status, so they live quietly without any worries.

Mate please more to this I am confused here.

What do you mean by "they don't want to get rich" Do you really think there are people out there that don't want to be rich or remain poor I don't think so. It is more of a situation thing. some times the situation people find themself in prevents them from achieving what they want. Some people have never left or even had the opportunity to leave the remote location they find themself which also can never provide any better opportunity for them. However, let us not forget that some other people are in the best environment but are still not rich, we could even say it's destiny, If you are not born with it then it wasn't meant for you to be no matter how hard you try.

People will always want the best for them so they can always live their lives to the fullest so I don’t think poor people would want to stay in poverty line forever. I know they’ve been trying to change and improve their lives but maybe opportunities are not within their reach. Its a sad reality that rich people have given more advantages than poor ones especially if they have some known backers that are sitting in the government. So as much as they want to achieve their goals in life, and work hard for them, maybe there are really things that are not meant for them but are meant to happen for the rich people. That maybe the reason why poor people have become poorer while rich have become even more richer because of unequal opportunities in life.

Most parents will be angry if their child fails, this makes the child not think creatively, correct parenting and continuing to give encouragement is the important thing, I have a child and always give encouragement if school grades are still bad, and another thing is to make him always be creative with new things so that it will be easy to adapt to real life in the future which of course will have more challenges.

I agree with you that parenting goes a long way towards determining a child's response to life when they are grown. Bad parenting will definitely yield a bad result, just as good parenting will also yield a good result. Some parents discourage their children a lot; some parents claim to be too busy; even taking out a little time to ask about their child's welfare becomes a problem for them; they may not even care what their children are facing under the influence of peer pressure; all of that could affect a child negatively and give some of them low self-esteem because they will always see themselves as inferior to others.

The opportunity is always there if a person can be sure of himself with the work he is doing, and is serious about trying.
But capital is also the most important part to be able to make more money. If there is no capital, then the opportunity is always in favor of people who have a lot of capital.

What you say is true, sometimes, it is a powerful catalyst for children to try harder to prove to their parents. I still remember before when I invested in bitcoin, and for a long time, I was almost at a loss and had no profit. My parents always compare me to other peers, it's like they say I'm worthless and parasitic on them. But in the last few years, my investments have started to pay off, and they've started to see me differently.

It can be said that the distrust of parents is sometimes not a bad thing, but on the contrary, it is also a good motivation for us to try harder with our choices.

Much Debt:  few people will have this situation make their life difficult and really hard to go up.  One of the cases I met was that they were poor even though they couldn't afford a roofed house in the rainy and windy season, I asked them why they didn't take out a loan from the bank to repair the house, they replied that they had  too much debt and can't turn the money to pay them and so on.  The reality is that the rich still have debt, but they always have the ability to pay it off, but the poor do not.  It makes them unable to get out of that mentality.

Although I understand that there are too many places in this world that sadly have limited opportunities to offer to their population. The mentality is also very important but it is not that easy to change the mindsets of these people that have zero to limited education.

Even with your example, I do not agree. Loans are not donations and they are supposed to be paid. If these poor people are able to live without quality and solid roofs then making a loan to buy roofs isn't right. I prefer to roll the loan proceeds into a small business or something that will generate income and benefit them in the long term. The profit will be able to buy roofs, pay the bank, and at the same time it will provide regular income.

capital is indeed important to support the success of a business, but I think knowledge and experience are more important as a basis for running a business. just like in trading, even if we use small capital, as long as we have knowledge, and a clear portfolio, we will gradually find success too, but there is no instant way to achieve everything. many people offer instant success like trading robots, but in the end it's just a scam

the struggle of poor people to be able to change their fate is indeed hard but it is not impossible, it all depends on oneself.
and I agree, the most important thing is knowledge and also desire even without capital but he will also be able to do other ways to get out of his poverty line.
everything needs a process and everyone has a different process, so nothing is instant unless they are those who have been rich since birth.

The reason that poor people seem like they aren't trying is because of the depth of their situation, as being poor is passed down from generation to generation, and winning is always a tough battle. Do not judge them simply because you don't know what they are doing.

I myself prefer investing in digital currency when compared to investing in real estate. the risks involved investing in crypto are very vulnerable, but the rewards are also greater in crypto I think than in real estate. I think there are many advantages to investing in crypto, we don't need and are not busy completing various administrations for our needs.

There is a saying mentioned by an Arab thinker that I will try to translate literally: "One problem created by poverty calls for another, and this one in turn contributes to a new problem and ultimately leads to an endless series of devastating results." I think this saying practically summarizes one of the most important reasons for the persistence of poverty in the world and answers the question of why a person remains poor. The reason is simply poverty itself.
Many people do not want to be poor, circumstances and factors that seem uncontrollable to them play a big role.

In fact, it is very difficult to get out of poverty if there are no conditions for this, in the place where he lives at the moment. It may be that he has enough money earned only for food and the most necessary clothes. And the only way to fix this is to change the place of residence, perhaps even to go to another country.

Not everyone is ready for this, so in such a situation, all that remains is to remain poor. Because if unemployment is very high in his environment, and the population is basically the same poor, then he will have practically no opportunities to change anything. He will always have the choice to move to another place, but this requires determination.

everything needs a process and everyone has a different process, so nothing is instant unless they are those who have been rich since birth.

In addition to wrong parenting which actually greatly affects a person's poverty, namely the wrong mindset and way of thinking, apart from that there are also several other factors, one of which is from an unstable source of income, unable to manage finances. , and the worst thing is when someone feels resigned to the situation and trapped in the comfort zone, try new things that you think are difficult and allow yourself to process to be one step ahead.
If you can change your bad habits and thought patterns, I'm sure you can change your life 180 degrees away from poverty.
