Of course, another way for a poor person to get bitcoin is by earning it, yet he still is ONLY able to hang onto his bitcoin if he has a discretionary income or the extra bitcoin that he earns is above the monthly costs of his expenses.
Of course, it's difficult to hold bitcoin for long term that are earned straight away like I explained, especially if they don't have any other side income. It's still reasonable to think they could keep a few percent of all that bitcoin for long-term investments, but most of it would be sold for daily or monthly needs. There's nothing wrong with that, but it would certainly be great if all those bitcoins were saved while having other side income.
Nowadays there are many sources of income that can help anyone who is interested in investing. Almost all social media platforms have a monetization feature which then pays these creative people, the results can be invested or used as a source of additional income instead of selling bitcoins to make ends meet.
