Instead of help poor people get punished it's crime to be poor don't be poor

People always complain about being born into poor families, but they forget that we cannot choose where and from whose womb we are born.

And I think people who complain about their poverty and are busy blaming their poor parents are fools who don't want to try. And people like this will continue to live in poverty. And it should also be understood that those who are born into wealthy families, many of them fall into poverty simply because they cannot manage their wealth and what has been inherited by their parents.

It's all about thought, belief, action and effort. If you are born into a poor family, then make sure that your offspring will be born rich. And if you are born into a wealthy family, then learn to manage that wealth well, and help those in need. ‘Being poor is not a desire, and being rich depends on what you do.’

I understand the frustration behind this post.  The world can seem unfair when we see others gaining at the expense of others.  However, I dont think the answer lies in cynicism or questionable ethics. 

The younger generation faces real challenges today - unaffordable education and housing, shrinking job prospects, climate change.  Navigating these while trying to build a good life is challenging, to say the least. So, rather than judging or making assumptions we would do well to approach one another with compassion.  Everyone has a story.  People make choices based on their situations and beliefs.  Progress requires understanding.  What policies and cultural shifts could make integrity, diligence and service more rewarding than greed? There are no easy fixes, but each of us can make a positive difference through words and actions.

Do you think people become or stay poor by choice? You say "Do whatever it takes but don't be poor" as if it's in a person's hand to choose what they want to be but that's not always the case. Most people are poor because they've had such backgrounds, they didn't have access to good or even proper education, they never had the resources to try and do something for themselves, and after all these things, you can't expect someone to get out of poverty by just trying because we all try to get rid of our problems but it's not always that easy.

It's true that the world isn't always fair with those who are from over classes, and they would never have the same facilities that the upper classes have, but there is nothing much a person from a lower class can do about that unless the world gets changed and those in power realize that this negligence isn't good and it should be finished but I doubt that will ever happen.

Definitely, you see the approach is very different.People believe differently in success and most time they're not properly mentored on how to handle questionable challenges, unpaired choices that stare at them to their faces.
The problem isn't about the "Poor" state,the ignorance to adaptation of knowledge,new skills and untouched decisions is a major weakness to either their growth and learning.
They're actually poor people in the picture struggling to put out with effective results but the willingness and energy to intentionally wrestle themselves out of the mud is completely missing.

Everyone is destined to be Rich be it poor or Rich, it's how we positioned ourselves that matters most because when you aren't that in a good state becoming rich could be hard for you.
For instance; to be Rich and be valuable you need to apply valuable things to your life by becoming more productive and creative with this when you are adding values people would get you hired and paid you for the service you render to them from then you are gradually becoming successful, but those who are too lazy waiting for the government to do everything for them would still be that poor because they are not productive.

greatness in Life is a function of how you position yourself and take actions that are in alignment with your plans in life the truth is that every one when it comes to life has a plan and vision that they have in mind but the distinguishing factor is in you taking action to make sure that you do things that will be helpful in actualizing your visions in life, most people don't know this secret that is the reason why they are waiting for their destiny to locate them but what they don't know is that destiny is what you make of yourself not what you wait for

Poverty is not a choice but a compulsion. Those who are poor are not poor by choice, but they are poor because they don't have a way out of that state. You may say that getting born poor is not your mistake but dying poor is your mistake, but that is only for saying; such phrases are only good in theory, but in practical life, things are not that easy to manage. You can't just get up one day and decide to not stay poor anymore and achieve everything. You need a base to get started, and if you were born and raised in a poor society, you will barely have that.

A lot of poor people work extremely hard, they do whatever they can so that they can have a better life, and give their families a better future, but at the end of the day, they can't do much since they lack both the resources and opportunities, and you can't make good money if you don't have any of the two. If you don't have resources, you should at least get some opportunity that you can use but if you also don't get that, you won't be able to go far no matter how hard you try.

Everyone is born poor - even if they are born into a rich family. By poor I mean poor in knowledge rather than wealth - so all classes are basically the same. Things will change because of the differences in the way and method of education taken - the rich are more likely to become rich because of privilege, while the poor remain with their poor mentality. Although each of us has the opportunity to change - but not all of us are ready for the risk. There are many poor people whose children become successful - they can improve their family's status and that is a proud achievement.

What we need to admit together is - nothing is impossible in this world, unless we never try. Take risks - do your best and never give up even if we fall many times. Great stories are not born from those who have everything - but from pioneers who did not get anything from their parents.
