Reasons you will remain broke as an adult:
Well maybe buying stocks before a 1929 style bear market...
Short but precise. Not only when it comes to handling investments, but also in how we handle our own life. If we never accept changes and adopt it, then we will always be left behind and would gain nothing but mistakes and losses. Always be open minded, and always chase opportunities that will make your life profitable. Sooner or later, you will have a better life because you never stop doing the right thing.
Simple reason why people still broke its because people don't want to leave on their comfort zone because they are afraid to leave what currently they have that benefiting them. They are afraid to try things because they don't know know if they can make it without trying them, if many of us will just have proper education about trying all things that we can especially on opportunity hunting for sure many people can enhance their current life style.
