What Really cause poverty in an individual

[Synchronice]

Poverty is a state of lack and not having something ( money, material, property) that is needed at that present point in time. Globally speaking poverty has been a major issues with the united nations general assembly even giving out time frame to end poverty and improve the standard of living of the world population especially in third world countries where the rate of poverty is higher.

Infact I have come to the realization that poverty is the biggest problem that we have in the world right now poverty is what actually makes people to define who we are as a person as it confines us to live a life style that is far below our expectations and potential that are deposited in us.
Initially I was thinking that people who are poor where due to lack of opportunities and the right environment for them to grow and develop themselves but today I heard a different view entirely I was told that poverty is what is inside of you so before you can become rich that you need to be rich inside of you, infact the person even said if you are poor inside of you even if you are given a $million that it will be a matter of time before that money will be wasted and you become poor again.

That got me worried and thinking what really makes people to become rich? Let share our opinion on this

The most important factor in getting rich is luck. There are too many rich people that don't have good education and lots of wrinkles on their brain surface is rarely their Brain's charasterictic but they are still rich because they are lucky, it's proven as far as I know.
If you bought Bitcoins years ago, you would be rich today but almost no one was holding it because no one was expecting Bitcoin to rise, those who kept it, were very lucky. They were smart definitely but lucky too, very lucky because absolutely no one knew and could predict Bitcoin's fate, whether it would collapse at $15, $100 or it would gain massive popularity and sky would be the limit.
Besides luck, there are some who get heritage wealth and I'd say that they are lucky too

The real reason behind poverty is that it's created artificially. Someone has to work in MacDonalds, someone has to work in warehouse, someone has to work in delivery, they try to keep the population less educated to force them into these kind of jobs that pay shit but work you like a slave. Poverty is a very complicated subject, we could talk about this for days.

I agree with you that if we live in a country with a developed economy like the top countries but still poor, it is mostly our fault, we are lazy, procrastinate and lack determination as you said. But if we live in a country with high inflation, a corrupt government, they don't create jobs and don't try to help people...how can we escape poverty? That is why there are many people who work hard all their lives, never stopping for a minute, but still cannot escape poverty until death.

There are many causes of poverty and we are not in that situation, we cannot know that escaping poverty is not just empty words.

that is the problem, many of us still can't fight laziness. And I think this is a problem that often occurs in each country, We are not trapped but we ourselves are the ones who trap ourselves. If we do have a sense of optimism and enthusiasm in doing something, maybe the situation that was previously less profitable will change for the better. In addition, with the difficult job market is indeed real and this happens in my country, well with this we must be aware to move even though not looking for work but we ourselves must create jobs and earn income, moreover the way to get money is also unlimited, especially if you can take advantage of current technological developments.

The country you live in makes it easier or harder for you to cope with any problem. If you are struggling with poverty, the situation of the country you live in is also related to the situation you are in. If you are in a country with a developed economy, it may be easier to evaluate opportunities to improve your economic situation. In some cases, you can make your situation better no matter what country you live in.

What is important is the level of personal effort and self-improvement. Taking advantage of technology and being able to see the situations that provide job opportunities in the environment allows you to reach a better level. I agree with your sentence that the way to earn money is unlimited. There are many opportunities to earn money today and it is up to the person to evaluate these opportunities.

Poverty is a state of lack and not having something ( money, material, property) that is needed at that present point in time.

The definition of poverty can vary based on what every individual tags it to be. Being unable to provide the things we need is cool but I cannot agree with you in the bolded part of your sentence.

For me, poverty is a long-term word. I consider someone to be wallowing in poverty if he can't be able to provide the best of things they want in a long time.

Lots of people can provide shelter, food, and clothing at low cost, but they can't get to eat good food, live comfortably in a private or suitable environment, afford quality clothing, and get to live the best of life. That is what I consider to be poverty.

Another definition of poverty is being unable to spend what you need without considering if you're going low on funds. I have seen some people who look rich but deep down they are just managing little by little making sure they don't spend too much. A wealthy man can afford what he wants without minding if it will affect the money in his account. He doesn't have to be spending lavishly though but he can spend comfortably.

What actually makes people to become rich is money.
When you have money you can own anything you want, but based on my opinion, 100% of those that do not have any of those things you mentioned earlier and they finally have it as their own, it's either luck or they have finally discovered the secret to success. And it's very hard to depend on luck because depending on luck is like staking your hope on what you are not sure about. But as a human you need hope in life, it's only those that have lost their hope that gives up at their early or old age. Even though you have no hope find a way to give yourself one because there's no excuse in been poor.
Nowadays, we go to school because we believe that after graduating from school we will find job that could give us a better life. That's probably hope.

What makes someone rich is simply they do have that buying power on everything that they do want on which of course on making use of money. How to make money? Get from your day job but talking about rich then it will really be that pertaining into multiple source of income on which a certain individual does have. Although it wont really be that something that too easy to achieve but its not impossible.

We are really that thriving hard on achieving this kind of state on where you would really be finding up ways just to make ourselves having that another income source to achieve on what we do have in mind.
It would really be that hard but doesnt mean that you wont be making any move or decisions that will really be able to make you rich but of course its not guaranteed but doesnt mean that you wont try.
Wealthy people does have that kind of mentality that whenever they do saw opportunities then this is something that they will dive in no matter what the probabilities that they will really be that
facing into as long there's really that chance that they could make money then they will be trying it out on which this is really that a good mentality of a certain individual.

This your intuition about poverty is base on experimental facts and what we see happening around us and how it should be actually. Bring rich or poor has to do with your mindset, what you see and perceive for yourself and how you wish for those things to decide for you being the rich or poor person in real life. If you’re innovative and know how to handle money well, you can be more productive and successful than the person who doesn’t have this skills and was on the same level as you at the time of given this money. Being born with a silver spoon and enjoying all the luxury of life’s are being termed as an opportunity for a very long time now, but I see that is not an opportunity but a reality of its own on how you fashion yourself to achieve some certain things in todays world. All can be rich if they wish to and it just requires a positive and optimistic mindset to make that happen.

[Dzwaafu11]

Yeah, there is no doubt in that, if from inside you have deficiency of knowledge and motivation and you have accepted your nature and life style. Then even if you are given $1 million you will just spend them on you and won't use it to make more money.

Those who are rich I have seen they don't waste money they even don't waste money on things which are necessary instead they have enough resources to do the things in cheaper ways. Thy always comes with cheaper ways like a birthday party. Smart ones don't waste extra money but keep them simple but most of the people fighting with inflation celebrate birthdays by spending a lot of money.

Yeah. But I think the reason why the rich people don’t buy expensive things and materials is because they have already reached and always have everything they want in their space, so they don’t really do much materialistic stuff. The rich people always do their analysis on how to get more money. They wish every single dollar that enters their hand can be used for business to get more money,

while the poor are not the same because someone who is poor needs many things to settle down with their life before they can think about starting a business to multiply the money, although $1 million is enough of money seriously, and they believe regardless of how bad it's that if someone gets $1 million, you are rich unless the person squanders the money in the wrong way.

[GeorgeJohn]

This trade is supposed to be lock because many points has been given and anyone who is responding here again he just like crying to answer he has answered already

So poverty is a natural thing that occurs so for me I believe that what we needs to escape or eradicate poverty is plan, when you're innovative or creative, surely you will earn a daily bread

Getting rich depends on a lot of factors; there are rich by birth, and there are those who got rich because of luck and the right opportunity.
So whatever situation and place you are in, your chances to get rich depend so much on your determination; its better to get rich through our sheer effort, because if its sheer effort, you will hold on to what you've achieved through sheer effort compared if you got rich through inheritance or through by chance winning a lottery.

I believe that to improve my economic situation depends on myself, when I am aware of the discomfort of my situation then I have to do something that can indeed make my situation better, but it is a problem if we are already aware of the uncomfortable situation and there is no movement at all. And even though I am in a developed country if from myself there is no will to be better then there will be no better situation. In my environment there are several young people who are successful by initially only trying to open a big branded clothing business by selling it online, and now they already have their own shop, this is one example of utilizing current technology.

Really that part of human instinct on which on the moment or time that we are on such condition or situation on where we do see that we are already that struggling in our living then it will really be that coming up into our mind on finding up the best thing that what we could possibly be able to deal off. Of course you will really be needing up to get out with your comfort zone if we are really that planning to have such changes.
It wont really be that simple but its not something that we do need to choose up on the situation that we are into. If you do want to have a progressive life then you should get out of your comfort zone.

Usually people will really be that not wanting or liking to have those kind of actions on which they wouldnt really be needing for them to exert effort or simply staying into their comfort zone on which we know that this one cant really be that possible because on the moment that you do find yourself having those kind of changes then make it sure that you will really be that going outside with that range.
You wont be able to obtain such change if you wont be serious on trying out to achieve such goal or target.

I also do not see assistance from the government as a solution to eradicating poverty because it is only enough to live for a few days, but for those who want to achieve success in their lives, they must be willing to work because it is for themselves, not for others. And if everyone can be very aware that assistance from the government is only temporary because it is not for their entire life, of course people who think like that will continue to work non-stop and will not care much about assistance from any party, especially from parties like the government.

The government provides access for its people to get certainty so that people can find financial sources independently and most governments do not provide access but provide assistance that makes people even more spoiled to go out looking for loopholes in determining their finances. If we want to get out of financial distress, we must be smarter in making choices and at least we know what steps need to be taken before starting.

Government assistance will not be able to get us out of poverty because they will not bear it all. If the ability of each individual does not exist, then do not expect someone to be able to get out of poverty because the one who can help us is not someone else but ourselves.

Agree with you, if we want to improve our economic situation or condition we must think well and realize what steps we must take in the future, one of which is we must have the spirit of working hard and stay away from laziness because if we do not control laziness well our economic changes will not develop according to our expectations. while working hard if someone has a hard-working nature he does not easily give up until his hopes are met.

In essence, people become rich, besides being rich because of inheritance, they can also become rich because of luck and luck is something that happens when opportunity meets readiness. I agree with this, and usually the wealth of descendants will not last long, especially if they do not inherit sufficient provisions and a hard-working spirit from their father.

Luck to become rich does not just happen, all luck happens when we are not afraid to fail, do not give up easily, and have the ability to manage finances. Luck also comes from learning to continue to hone abilities, improve skills, and have the ability to build strong networks and be able to build relationships. Likewise, those who are poor since birth but remain poor because sometimes they surrender to their circumstances and do not want to try to find luck to change their fate.

When you do get your richness from inheritance then this is something a good start up for you yet you wont really be able to have that tough time on trying out to build your richness but of course the main issue on here is on how you would really be able to sustain it out because on the moment that you do inherit your parents business or your family business on where your wealth or source came from then it will really be that so important that handling it out and maintain will really be that crucial if you do want that source will remain, or else then expect that there would be some decline or the worst it would really be that gone or go bankrupt.

If you do start up from zero then you will really be needing to work hard your ass off before you could be able to reach up this kind of state on which you will really be able to possibly be able to come out or get out with poverty. Most people are really just that too lazy on doing something to improve their way of living but instead of making up some actions they do rather prefer on not to make something
and really just that contented on what they do have now.

As a rule, a person has several decades of life to realize their ambitions. And this means that a person has a chance to get rich.

First of all, this requires desire, because without desire nothing will work out (there is not a single chance). There are many people who are quite satisfied with their modest income (they are completely devoid of ambition). A strong will is also needed (that is, energy directed at achieving important goals).

In my opinion, a person who wants to get rich should look for opportunities to do so, constantly learn something new, be able to analyze information and make decisions quickly.

I respect your point of view because making high goal is good if you want to be successful in life because if you you have small goal then you will be satisfied by doing job and you will waste your all time for serving the people for the small amount of money. Continues learning is key to success in life . Mostly poor people are poor because they have habits of poor people and poor people always rely on another person and rice people always take stand for theirselves and they do hard work for their future and they have long term goals .And they make another goal after getting miner goal and they always ready to conquer the world and they always make friends which are of helping nature.

I believe there are times when we really have to get out of our comfort zone, especially if the zone that makes us comfortable does not give us any benefits, then we should be aware of the unfavorable situation, Someone who is trapped in an unfavorable comfort zone is in my environment with the initials R, he is trapped in his game comfort zone every night staying up playing games and as far as I know it does not give him any benefits, because his parents often tell me how annoyed they are with their child's behavior who does not move at all.
We all certainly have our own comfort zone, try to make the comfort zone that we have can produce a benefit. I myself managed to get benefits from the zone that makes me comfortable and this really makes me comfortable doing and running it.

Inner problem:
1. Afraid to try something, let's say you have a computer science degree, but you don't want to work as a dishwasher even though you've unemployed for 3 years.
2. Spend money for unnecessary thing, always lend money to your friends or family who're in need.
3. Lazy.
4. Have a bad lifestyle.

Most of these things you mentioned are really one of the reasons why people end up being poor, and all of it attributed to mismanagement of funds.

Your first point is actually a good one, some people are scared of taking risk and starting from somewhere, if you don’t take risks you will never know the outcome of what you are scared to try out and you will just remain stagnant in a particular point. To be successful one needs to take calculated risks and not be scared to try out new things to see the outcome.

Being a lazy person is also another reason why people end up being poor. Poverty is attracted to lazy people so to eliminate poverty we need to be hard working

Having a bad life style doesn’t really causes poverty because you can have a bad lifestyle and still be focused and hardworking which will make you a successful person. We have seen musicians have bad and lavish lifestyle but they still work hard and are successful so it doesn’t matter much to me.

3. Live with many kids.

If you avoid everything that I mentioned above, I'm sure you will not be poor anymore (it doesn't mean you will be rich though).

Having a lot of children affects one’s financial stability because the more children you have the more responsibilities on you and it will affect your financial stability.

Indeed, I like the sentiment where you mentioned the fact that there are people who came into this world who already have a gold spoon in their mouth, they just need to keep those wealth and continue being rich, though the last statement is also true, it's good to have those wealth with your hard work as you'll surely know how to take care of those savings that you've got and you'll make sure that it will be taking care as long as you are still alive.

The most important factor in getting rich is luck. There are too many rich people that don't have good education and lots of wrinkles on their brain surface is rarely their Brain's charasterictic but they are still rich because they are lucky, it's proven as far as I know.

Though I agree that luck can make you reach places sometimes in life, it isn't necessarily the most important factor for one to become rich because luck alone can't do much in most cases, but you will have to keep trying to achieve a good position in life by working hard. You might see some people who got rich by luck, but most people who are rich have worked pretty hard in their lives and reached those positions after a lot of struggle.

Most of the most influential billionaires and rich people in the world that we see on the news and read about, most of them have started from scratch and achieved success by working hard and using their brains and business mindsets to create business empires that we all admire and wish today.

As I said in the beginning, luck might help some people by making them rich, but one shouldn't sit idle and do nothing, only relying on luck to do everything for them because even for luck to work for you, you will at least have to create some opportunities.
