Re: The basis of being a poor- how little or how big?

The basis of poor is simple he don't have enough savings or investment which can secure him better standard of living...

I do not agree to this allusion because for me, I don't see being poor as not having money in cash or at all, or not having investments. I rather see poor as the lack in every spear of life, example, knowledge, political connection, health, charismatic and influential etc.

Have we not heard or seen rich people who don't know how to use their money to influence people? People would rather dance to the tune of a poor man who is an orator rather than a wealthy man more like a moron? Roll Eyes

Have we not heard of poor gate attendant who connects people to jobs/employments ?

Have we not heard of poor man whose phone contacts is filled with high and mighty?

In other words, being poor sometimes is not only when you don't have investments but when you can't help yourself or others.

Bill Gates says that if you born poor it is not your fault but if you die poor it is your fault. It means that you have guts to become rich. You have no ability to earn money from different income source. Our leader said work, work and work. It means that you will have to work hard to become successful in life. World is full of opportunities but only smart and clever people can benefit from these opportunities.

the difference is, if you work, you may have slight chance to make difference on your life for better. its a risk worth to take. either for survival or better life.

But if you not working, chance are zero. rewards come with effort. each and every small effort counts.
