To tell you frankly no one wants to stay poor is just that there are so many reasons that affecting why a person is in a poverty level including they have limited access to education, healthcare, and job opportunities, sometimes other people descrimate them because of lack of education. For them to have or achieve having a comfortable life, it is important that they have to build their skills and make a way to have a proper education, to seek employment that they can use their skills. It can also be helpful if they will set a realistic target goals in life so that they would know what they need to do to achieve it.
you're actually right on the mark there my friend. the competition for resources such as education nowadays is really specially in some countries with limited access to those. i myself is currently residing in some difficult country, in order for us to climb the ladder to become financially stable, we have lots of requirements with little to none resources for us to utilize and start, even if we say we needed to think outside of the box to achieve those, it is still hard to find good opportunities. poverty is almost everywhere here in my country, and we know that the government is trying their best to support every jobless citizen we have, but it is still not working since not everyone can acquire jobs. aside from that we are very aware that we cannot always depend on the government and we need to make an effort to appeal or search for wiser options if we wanted to become financially stable.
