While you are teaching a man to fish, give him a fish so he knows that he doesn't have an octopus when he catches something.
In real life, not everyone can start a new startup without any money. This phrase may not fully work in the real world conditions. If you want to teach a man to fish, you still need to give him the tools to catch a fish. You can't just teach him and leave him alone. Also Hunger is a big hindrance in learning. First you need to remove his hunger and then he can focus on teaching.
If you leave him alone without the tools, give him the knowledge, so he can get the tools out of nature, where everybody else gets them.
In the USA, one of the major reasons that 38% of the land is locked up in parks, forest land, and wilderness land, is so that poor but smart people won't go out there and make the tools for themselves. They have to go to big business for the tools... which, of course, they can't afford. Big business has eliminated competition this way.
It's called slavery.
