But why is it that some even with the resources in front of them don’t still manage to make huge profit? Is it because of their character? Are they too lazy? Too comfortable? Not determined enough?

Sometimes the only barrier preventing most of these persons who were born poor from breaking out of poverty is their mindsets. It is very common to see poor people with a limiting mindset. They have lived all their lives in their poor state in their poor community. They just believe that certain achievements are meant for the rich people. Even when opportunities are brought before them, they might not utilise that opportunity efficiently to give them a successful life. Only few poor people with positive mindsets are able to recognize opportunities when they see one and help themselves break out of their poor state. You cannot take a poor person with a limiting mindset out of poverty, they will still go back to their poor state which they feel comfortable in.

I agree with you mate. It takes defeating poverty first from the mind before we start manifesting those attitudes and actions of changing our physical status. Most poor persons have a low self-esteem which has eaten and filled them with fears and anxiety to do and go the extra length in climbing up the pyramid to the top.

There people that are not just physically poor but mentally poor that they feel very comfortable about their present state it doesn't disturb them that they are poor, as in, they are satisfied with whatever little that cross their path never seeing a need to dare for more. There's that fear to take risk, they just believe they've already failed even before trying to take up the risk opportunity that could change their life so need not be that they even try.
