Poverty change people, I never thought as much until i came back from abroad.
I visited my old neighborhood while growing up to see some of my guys in the past, I observe that most of them have changed to something else, from their behavior to how they sees life, and to how bittered they are. Though we still get along well base on the kind of person I am, I don't even sees myself like the rich guy they take me for, but I also feel their pain because life haven't been fair to them, a caring and loving guy before is now always bittered, the best I can do, which I did was to introduce them to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
Poverty is a disease that changes people.

An empty stomach can make you do anything because its terrible and only people who have been in that situation can feel that. Well, it doesn't mean they will go wrong way but it can make them to be, let's say 1/10 can choose the wrong path but others choose to live with what they got and basically they disappointed with their life but don't know what to do to make it change.

You are very right but alternatively no one is happy that he or she is poor, the society and our government have made us to take life the way we see it, poverty brings loyalty and arrogancy too, people are suffering as a result of so many things ranging from economic crunch, shelter clothes and many others and the thing has automatically changed their mentality, they can do anything just for the sake of money and to cater for their families. their arrogancy might come as a result of frustration and hardship however, i don't blame any poor person because their position worth being arrogant because people look down on them, maltreat them impose threats on them and many more, so poverty has actually made people change.
