Topic: People tend not to move - page 5. (Read 595 times)

Home is where the heart is, that's absolutely correct.
Our culture is always family first, but in terms of finding a way to survive financially, my country men slowly adapt on a character trait that sacrifice his presence for his family and travel abroad to have a more sustainable income.
But still majority of us here doesn't like to move from a place where we were born.

One thing noticeable in our culture is that we tend to move to other country to find good income salary, but foreigners like Westerner and Chinese people come to our country to build a business. This is something most people in my country doesn't realize and have overlooked.

Well, I certainly am not one of them. I'd reckon 'wanting' to move is influenced by what you grew up in if there were opportunities or not for the path you chose. It's highly dependent since not all places have the opportunities for you, sometimes you have to move far just to get that lucky chance, unlike others who has it pretty much served to them in a platter.

Well isn't it because the mindset of innovating something is absent from them? Not that I'm saying that people aren't innovative, just that they tend to put that tendency of theirs towards stuff that they have passion about, so really, it's no wonder why most don't really bother in trying to appeal as to what medium their money is in. In the end, isn't it still money that they'd use? Not to mention that those innovative mindsets are also rare in itself imo, or at the very least, those that can be let out and be known to others anyway.  

Emotional attachment and cultural and sociological differences are the things preventing people from doing any more mass migrations. Cultural differences are maybe the strongest factor in all of them, and one that can not be bypassed so easily because the problem lays on both sides. Cultural differences in a global age are getting more and more accentuated and therefore harder for others to adapt to them.

First of all, I have seen people travelling out of my country to settle in another country, although home will always be home but this doesn't change the fact that some left forever. What I noticed is that some other people want to experience another region but no money to give such opportunity but what I know is that people have been moving from one region to the other since the evolution of people that science researched to have started from Eastern/Southern part of Africa.

About this, ignorance can cause it. Some people do not know the value of bitcoin, all just hearing about how the price is fluctuating and never think of investing. Some people just think in other form of investment and not that they are wrong, but bitcoin had been the most successful asset in the past of one decade ago, so going for it would have been better. I still noticed that people always know that the value of money is not in fiat but in what you use it to do to bring more money, and in the process people are having assets to earn more money, or investing to earn more.

I don't think this is very correct because people have been moving from beginning of the world existence. From the bible story, the part of the Israelites moved to Egypt either for safety or what we call greener pastures until a time that they moved back to Israel.

Also the slave trade stories were movement for expansion,  expidition and other purposes that were either positive or negative outcome but led to human integration and culture studies. Still today humans are moving far from country home to other places either for education, greener pastures, sporting activities. Yes for soccer we know people move to other countries, get signed up to continent far from theirs, Messi for example is from Argentina and has been in Spain with Barcelona for years and now in France with PSG. Christiano Ronaldo too
Dr Okonjo-Iweala is from Nigeria but has lived outside Nigeria for most of her life and leading the World Trade Organisation as director, moreso raising her children outside Nigeria and so many others just to mention few but known cases and as people move, they inter marry and naturalize there. So people move very well IMO.


Regarding monetary movement, people are also leaving the total commitment to traditional financial system and traditional economy. The investment in bitcoin is growing and can't be compared to 2017 at least. The economic has gone digital likewise the thinking and thought structure of the government and that is why because they can not beat them, they have joined the modern structure with CBDC

In short, people find a HOME. Home is where the heart is. Family members stay close together and are not open to moving away from thier family because we look after each other. Latins and Asians I believe have this culture. A familiar place where everybody knows everyone is what we are used to.

Starting from scratch are from new families traveling to find greener pastures but eventually, if they don't come back, they import someone from their hometown with them. It could be a sister, grandparents or so.

I think this is very well explained with emotional attachment with the place where we take birth. There is thing called as safe-box or may be comfort zone! Everyone right from the birth starts to know the surroundings, neighbours, the area, even the shop at corner and all these things start to get emotionally attached with everyone.

Many of us even go here and there for educational purposes, take our degrees and most of the time wanna Go-Home and get settled. May be that’s kinda emotion which attracts everyone back to their hometown.

Our most of the things like house, area, colonisation makes more safer than the new area and new peeps. Most of the things are already settled so why you start from the scratch. That’s what most of them think.

Obviously there could be many more theories out their but this could be one of the reason for concentrated colonisation.

A recent research presented in the article above indicates that , geographically speaking. It is curious how most people are (randomly?) born somewhere and they tend to look for the opportunities to make a living on that place, do not go too far or think that they actually enjoy the freedom of deciding to go to anywhere else in the world unless they have serious pressing motivation (hunger, crime,...).

Reading this, I could not help but think that people also "don't move" in monetary terms. They are born in a certain region and they do not think that their money might very well better in some other form (e.g. bitcoin).
