Thanks for bringing us back on track.

I think you'r spot on.

How do we teach people how to earn a living? How to find opportunities to make money?

I think a lot of people don't have that instinct in them, which is unfortunate. Should we care enough to help them along, to show them how to find ways to climb their way out of poverty?

Compared to them, of course, we are rich. If somehow, someway we could teach them how to earn a living and also possibly to use bitcoin as their banks/savings, it could actually help them on it. There's a difference in doing something and just acknowledging it.

I agree. Teaching people how to earn a living is one thing. The real problem a lot of people have is how to spend that money wisely. I think everyone has the drive to make money and earn themselves a decent living. But a lot of people don't have that financial instinct to save up money for future use. They struggle to spend, or rather save, their money wisely. And you could give these people 10.000 dollars or 100 dollars; they would still be in the same problem in the end.

I wish we could financially advise people on how to spend/save their earnings wisely, keeping in mind future events.

You forgot that to worry about the safety of their savings they need to first earn. The vicious circle turns out. In addition, 300 dollars a month is not enough for learning and life.
