stupidity is so close to poverty, do you agree with such a phrase?
if it yes, means the poor are the fools.
I want to know your opinion.  Grin Grin

Yes,  stupidity is the reason why many people until now did not escape the poverty because of their attitude. They have not enough strategies on how to earn big amount of money through investment. They always contented the small amount of their salary income that fix already because they always focus on their work.

Yes i do agree on that, most of the people who are spreading fake news like cryptocurrencies are scam is just making their life even harder since bitcoins is really profitable because of the market's volatility.

It`s not exactly stupidity.Not all poor people are stupid.It`s the combitation of being lazy+procrastination+lack of education/knowledge+not enough concentration and discipline+finding too many excuses for everything in your life and blaming everyone else for your misery.
Some rich people are kinda stupid,but they work hard,have discipline and stay focused.

Haha good point. I'd agree, rich people can still lack in the other important skills that are necessary to be truly successful. Just because you have a lot of money doesn't necessarily mean that you've earned it the hard way.

Stupidity is a lack of knowledge, or no desire to obtain that knowledge anywhere. That's what makes people get stuck in certain situations in their lives. They don't see a need to improve or learn more, and therefore have a hard time escaping poverty. Or, they were just born into these conditions and are comfortable where they are. Nothing wrong with that, it's just a preference.
Sometimes it's also a culture. You see your father and mother content with the life that you have, and so you become like them. I mean, why would you grind and work hard if everyone around you is comfortable with just sharing a small fish for dinner? It's PERFECTLY fine to the people around you, why wouldn't it be fine with you? I live in a place where everyone is content with their lives. They are all poor but they are all addicted to gambling. The small amount of money that they are getting from a long day of labor work goes all to gambling. Why? It's because it's the life that their parents lived and was passed on to them. Good thing I'm not originally from this place so I have a totally different mindset. I was raised differently.

And what are those skills? Money = Success in this world. No other way. I know that we have different definitions of "success" but you don't see a poor person being called "successful". It really only take you to be exceptionally good at one thing in order to become rich. Become a really good singer, people will come to you, listen to you, and eventually pay to listen to you. All of the other skills becomes secondary like washing the dishes, doing the laundry, etc. Everything that doesn't have a relation with your career becomes secondary at this point. That's why successful people make other people do those things for them. You don't have to have the "other important skills".

Success is a mindset. It is being able to accept things that cannot be changed, and using the power you have to make a difference in the people around you. It's not giving up when something doesn't work the first time. It's being adaptable and flexible to challenging situations. It's finding a way through trying different approaches, even those that you don't agree with. It's giving up your own desires for the good of those around you. Rich people who don't have these skills usually live unhappy lives. Poor people who have these skills usually don't care if they're rich or not. Money is simply another tool.

no, absolutely nothing to do with that.
ignorance is not the main factor that causes poverty, because like the reality we see a lot of rich people who are stupid. and that dismissed your opinion about this.

It does not really matter, it's your fault. Because - your poverty can come because of stupidity, but the poor are not fools. Suppose you are poor, you earn money for hard work. So, I can not tell you fools. So fools are those who laugh at the poor and those who are poor, who accept it with a smile.
sometimes stupidity does not always result in poverty. a fool but he wants to work hard to change his fate will get the results. intelligence doesn't always make someone's fate better. our hard work will change our destiny.

I don't think all fools are poor because when there is intention and determination, one's economy can get better and success can be achieved when they continue to work hard in finding a profit every time.

That is right.
This is why Warren says there is not better investment as investing in yourself. Education is the most important.
Work smarter and money will come.

Although there are a lot of people who are rich but not really any clever, they just do good at making money.

Actually, they are not good at that either. Having your own business it's extremely difficult to keep it profitable. So, I would call them clever if they were able to do that. But in many cases, if not in most cases, rich people only lose their money, though little by little and that's why it's enough for several generations of a rich family to live this way. They tell stories about how good they are at money making in order to appear as if they are smart business persons, but if you look closely at their entrepreneurship activities, you see that their overall profit is negative.

In most cases, poverty shows some deficiency of knowledge. The deficiency might not be on such a large scale as to refer to it as stupidity. However there are literally no universalities. One can be poor for many other reasons. I am tempted to think that with the right information and proper hardwork, riches will be gained. But if we think every poor man is so because of his stupidity, it might cause a condescending attitude. And this is better avoided. So, stupidity might be close to poverty but poverty is not always stupidity.

I think that poor people are having not enough brightness, they are lacking the baldness that is needed in order to risk money. Like my grandfather, he is only stacking and storing money in the closet.
This is really stigma of this society that we are always making things for rich people to become richer. All such good education and life styles are for rich society but what for poor? That’s why bitcoin is here to represent this underprivileged portion of population too. This coin is broadcasting so many chances that people from less privileged backgrounds can earn money too.

Stupidity is one of the main reason of becoming poor. That's why the education is important in order to reduce the number of poverty. But there also many skilled people who jobless too due to lack of job opportunity in the country they're living in.

It seems that poverty has nothing to do with ignorance and even many success stories from someone who used to be poor and now opens the most important job opportunities tuh we want to learn and keep trying.
But poverty can be finished by innovative and creative thinking and not thinking innovatively is equivalently to stupidity.  You have to be rational to make rational decisions while dealing in crypto according to the prevailing market condition and if you do not act accordingly, you in other words suffer from the unwise decisions. This is what they call stupidity and often leads to poverty as well. One can always give an end to poverty by making use of one’s mind and thinking something out of the box. Same could be done in crypto to escape the uncertainties of poverty.

You will get a positive result if you do something or a project with interest and attention otherwise a careless person gets low product of anything. In the crypto world Bitcoin has great importance due to its potential of producing more profit if every process goes according to the basic rules and proper strategies. And one thing more do not let your self fall in poverty so you have to manage everything.

It has always been my thoughts or opinion that,this whole poverty and riches of a thing depends on individual mind set. If one proposes in his mind to be rich and does something to achieve that, he will definitely be rich. As I often quote "As a man thinketh, so is he" I don't buy the idea that stupidity is the only thing that makes one poor. Though it's part of it.

I don't agree fully with that assertion. Because, it doesn't necessarily mean that all poor are fools. But most at times, stupidity leads one to porverty. And at the same time, not all rich are wise.
