This your intuition about poverty is base on experimental facts and what we see happening around us and how it should be actually. Bring rich or poor has to do with your mindset, what you see and perceive for yourself and how you wish for those things to decide for you being the rich or poor person in real life. If you’re innovative and know how to handle money well, you can be more productive and successful than the person who doesn’t have this skills and was on the same level as you at the time of given this money. Being born with a silver spoon and enjoying all the luxury of life’s are being termed as an opportunity for a very long time now, but I see that is not an opportunity but a reality of its own on how you fashion yourself to achieve some certain things in todays world. All can be rich if they wish to and it just requires a positive and optimistic mindset to make that happen.
