That's exactly how to break it down on what's the real interest in this topic. For sure, it's going to be hard to trust them if you are going to let them use your own resources unless if that's your goal in life or something that you are actually planning for the people who are less fortunate. Before being pitiful on those individuals who have less, I think the best thing that you could teach them somehow (preferably if they are still a child) is their attitude. Having the right attitude and the right character can go a long way in life, especially in this world of ours.
SO you're saying there's two reasons why it's tough to teach poor people how to earn money (or find earning opportunities):
(1) They lack access to resources that help them with the search to find money making opportunities, and
(2) They lack the will to learn how to find the resources or the opportunities
Is that correct? I'll agree to that.
But with the internet information is more freely available than ever before...if information is what these people need, how do we get it to them? What if we set up centers in poor areas, not-for-profit, that provides access to the information, the internet so they can connect with more people to find the opportunities or learn skills they can sell to others?
