Topic: Poor and Rich - page 5. (Read 1556 times)

Poor and rich is a part that will exist in this life, I've been to developed countries like Spain and France, and there are also settlements where the majority are poor people, I think rich and poor will always exist because of the laws of life that need each other. so don't ever think that the poor will disappear.

You are right. so basically the first thing to fix is ​​the mindset itself. The mindset of the rich and the poor is clearly different. Rich people always think more about the future. and they are always optimistic. so that whenever an opportunity comes their way they will be happy to study it and start to enter it if it has potential. different from the thoughts of some poor people who may sometimes think more negatively. they are afraid too much in their life. so many opportunities that may be missed. which means they sometimes don't dare to take risks and prefer to be in the safe zone. even though if we look at how the rich act, they are always more daring to innovate and take more risks by getting out of the safe zone. one example of people who dare to get out of the safe zone is someone who has an entrepreneur. but when an entrepreneur succeeds in his business, he will have financial progress faster than an office employee. and yes, this is indeed about a mindset that must first be arranged so that it can be more positive.

and about our social friends or social environment also has a big impact on the growth of our personal characteristics. if we associate more with successful people then unconsciously our character might follow the character of these successful people. the point is the environment can bring more impact in our lives.

It's true that people in industrialized countries tend to have a higher standard of living and more leisure time than those in poorer countries. It's important to remember that even in developed countries, some people have trouble making ends meet because of their social status, health, or other factors.

You are absolutely correct that the poor, in particular, must make sacrifices on the path to prosperity. Decision making, risk taking, and the occasional acceptance of public humiliation are all part of the game. As you can see, progress is possible, albeit slowly and with effort.

Focusing on both the means and the end result of achieving financial success is essential. It requires gaining a firmer grasp of personal finance, actively seeking out opportunities to learn new skills, and building a community of people who can offer advice and guidance. We can achieve prosperity and fulfillment with the aid of these things.

Many people or state leaders have the goal of eliminating poverty from their country, we must say that eliminating poverty is impossible, it is easier to eliminate water in the sea than eliminating poverty, because life always has 2 different things but need each other, namely rich and poor .

Poverty is caused by the nature of laziness that is embedded in humans, lazy to move to work is an attitude that always makes people say poor, at least by working someone can change their destiny for the better.
to be rich, I think there is no need for savings or inheritance from the family left behind, but it is enough to carry out activities that are carried out every day with great diligence. Apart from that, to be rich, I think it is also very important to have a critical mindset, keep moving, and focus on doing anything. if we do it or do it then it will be better or become Rich

I've also heard this very sayings time without number and that's also one issue the book "Rich Dad, Poor dad talked about and one of the major reasons why the rich always stays rich and the poor gets poorer is risk taking as the rich are always ready to take risk and grab every positive opportunity that comes their way but the poor on the other hand sees every opportunity as scam and barely takes the risk. First to create wealth, one has to change their mindset and peer circle because the group of friends also has some significant role to play in the life of an individual, hence growth requires alot of disassociation if you want to get to your destination faster.
In conclusion people ought to have a good investment knowledge as that is one way the rich stay richer.

well those are two conditions that will continue to exist. because they really need each other. what makes the difference is that in developed countries the majority of people's lives are indeed rich but in developing countries the majority of people's lives are filled by the lower middle class with incomes that are indeed below average and sometimes mediocre.

even if someone lives in a developed country and he belongs to a person who is not rich or middle class then when he moves to a developing country then in fact he can automatically be said to be a rich person when living in a developing country.

and talking about getting rich is indeed more difficult when starting from a poor condition. because it requires more sacrifice of energy, time and thought. even have to prepare a higher mentality because sometimes the big steps taken by poor people towards the road to become rich are always accompanied by a lot of insults and ridicule. often even underestimated. I've been in this position. and I'm grateful that at least now my condition is getting better

All mechanisms are the same as that, the rich need the poor and the poor need the rich, the rich need the poor to increase their wealth by employing the poor and the poor need the rich to get wealth from the rich through the salaries they get, all spinning like that in my opinion.
But what's dangerous is when harmony doesn't go well, especially if rich people are able to do anything using their money nowadays.
Each country or region has a different level of poverty so it cannot be averaged in one perspective.

A poor person does not have the tools needed to become rich.  There is a saying that money brings money.From the platform on which the rich live, he can create many more platforms, he can fulfill all his dreams if he wants.But a poor person spends his life thinking about that platform. The rich do not lack opportunities, they earn money in every way.Their investment style and business style are also very high.  They can earn money anywhere.  But that is never possible for the poor.  Rich people have enough capital, even if their business loses, their wealth is not harmed.  Because they can get more returns later.

I agree with that, basically humans need each other both rich and poor.
rich or poor it depends on oneself, there are various types of rich and there are various types of poor.
if poverty is only a benchmark for those who find it difficult to eat or meet their basic needs, then there is a lot of interference from the government of a country, in poor countries it happens a lot and it is very difficult to overcome it.
and for developed countries many people are poor because of their mindset that cannot rise.

In developed countries such as Europe, Japan, South Korea, the USA and others, of course what is seen is the large number of rich people, but on the contrary in developing countries such as Sri Lanka, Timor Leste, Zimbabwe and so on the visible sight is the large number of poor people, but life in this world is indeed unique because rich and poor can need each other and work together.

This whole scenario easily being correct is why I know someone who has phd maths but also believes capitalism is the purest form of evil in the world.      It really is true that a rich person in effect pays less, as a percentage very little is a challenge comparatively.  They even pay less taxes quite often and it is part of a correct governance in a country to try and counter this disadvantage that being born with nothing can have.
  However I dont think that is the entire argument, some rich people end up worse off in an ironic way like a person who has never used their muscles to do anything they can end up weak and helpless possibly and somehow despite everything worse off then a person who has been challenged their whole life and never spent a day not learning and gaining skills in some way.  Of course its possible to have both and the best of both worlds but not often imo.

Its a good nation that supports their people as all being equally capable rich or poor.  To allow them to be educated and innovate and enhance their nation with skill and hard work.  To just have stored wealth to spend is not the entire picture, as a nation certainly it would bring poverty through the inability to self sustain.  Its hard to state exactly but wealth is more then just storing value, its the opportunity to create and produce I think.

There is a large gap between the poor man and the rich man and we need to know what we are doing or we might end up becoming a loser. The average men are the one struggling to leave there current level to get to another level that money will not be the major problem. We need to keep working so that we are going to make more money.

Well it is still depends on the situation, there are some people who are not yet rich even they are working hard some of them working with 2 to 3 jobs but still poor and only have some money enough to sustain their everyday needs. There's always an opportunity for everyone but sometimes the world is not yet good to them, maybe now they can't be rich for now but I know with the amount of hardwork and perseverance they will become rich soon. I'm talk talking to someone I knew personally actually.

Everyone hopes to be rich and does not want to be poor, this is because we can get all the pleasures of this world, but if it turns out we are still poor then don't ever regret it, there is always an opportunity to be rich because the opportunity can be open at any time, as long as there is a mind To be rich then one this time we will become rich.

Good example its just show that since rich have the ability and means to invest more, it will reflect higher in as a profit compare to average people who invest in a low amount. At some point i disagree in a part where the poor keep getting poorer. it will only happen if the person will not make any action to change his life. Yes some rich people are because their ancestor are rich but remember that other percent of rich people are come from average and poor family, they just do lots of hustle and put the dedication ln what they are doing to achieve where they are right now.

I think when you are an adult you already know that their wealth is inherited and will continue, that's why there are titles like getting richer because they have been born rich and taught how to manage it.
different from people who are not born rich, their path will be longer to achieve it all.

I think rich people also must have felt poverty before. And not all poor people will continue to be poor.

But there must be hidden reasons for the quote you shared. For example, the reason the rich get richer, the poor get poorer is

1. Rich people always have big dreams. They never give up and live it by working hard. Poor people only talk a lot, they can only comment what they want and do nothing.

2. Rich people always think about winning, while poor people are always afraid of losing.
Rich people tend to rack their brains to win something in competition. While the poor, they think to protect what they have. They don't want to make big sacrifices, for things that can change their destiny.

The point is, rich people can always take any risk. But poor people always think twice, they are afraid of losing and don't want to make sacrifices.

Look at this scenario, A very rich man invest $100k in an asset and you invest $100 in the same asset. Say the ROI is 10%, at the end of the investment, the rich man would have made 10,000$ in profit while you will have made just $10. $10,000 dollar is a whole lot of money to make on a single investment but to you $10 is still a very fragile amount. Hence, the rich keep getting richer and poor keep getting poorer because the poor have large liquidity to play around with while your 100$ can go to grocery bills next time.

What you want to know here is quite simple. The rich will always get richer because they are at the top floating now, and they are floating because they do mingle with top richer people with whom they share ideas. So one way or the other, they will help each other with contracts and investments that would bring big bags in profits. While the poor will get poorer because their household is poor and getting to the top side seems a way difficult, as they have virtually no connections.
