Poverty has many different causes, and - if stupidity almost certainly makes you poor - the opposite is not true at all: there are many environmental situations where even a genius would not be able to rise from poverty.
So, it seems to me a wrong statement.
We cannot label poor as stupid or stupid as poor. I agree with you that there could be various reasons for poverty. It is never that you were rich and lost money because of stupidity. People have been seen losing money because of different addictions and becoming rich by chance or just because of mere luck. Wealth can never define your mental capabilities but yes it could be taken for your hard work.

Remember that what we are now is the result of what we want, if we are poor now, that doesn't mean that we should live and die poor, we are all doing our own destiny so it is up to us what we are going to do with our life, we do have a lot of option to become rich, the only enemy we will face everyday is our selves, how much determined we are. eee

You can’t be so categorical in relation to poor people and assume that all poor people are cabbage rolls.  I live in a country where people with higher education trade in the market to feed their families.  We have such a situation when a simple barista in a cafe earns three times more than the chief engineer at the enterprise.  Moreover, people who work hard do not always receive their miserable salary on time, while people sitting in offices at the computer earn tens of times more and still receive bonuses several times a month.  Therefore, it all depends on the circumstances and all that surrounds us.

Stupidity: stupid in making decisions and stupid because of laziness.  Average poor people are lazy in changing their lifestyle and mindset

I don't believe poverty is destiny because millions of billionaires come from poor families at a young age. just, for example, Jeff Bezos who was only a Burger worker at a young age..  poverty and wealth is a choice!  even if you cannot afford to be rich at least you must be able not to be very poor.
I agree with you we should try to use crypto in the right way other wise it will not take time to make us poor.  We should invest in a well-known coin and also try to be wise while selling our coin always try to sell at on the right time. Being poor is not a mistake but being poor after loosing all with your foolish mistake a is kind of stupidity.

We should always take note that there is no destiny, there is no lucky, we all are creating our own life, there's a lot of poor people who become rich because they keep working until they reach their goal, they have been focus with what they are doing, there are also some rich person who becomes poor because they lack of focus and perseverance.
Yes, it is all fool who says poor are stupid because people must be poor and will have to work hard for getting rich. There are only a few people in my country who got allot of wealth from family but 80 percent of people become rich with their own hard work and effort so poor can be rich but stupid rich people can become poor by making worst mistakes in life especially about their investments.

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

Stupidity been close to poverty doesn't imply that the poor are fools. Rather, it tries to expose the mistakes people make that could lead to poverty.
For instance,  not knowing when to buy or sell in crypto could lead to poverty. 
Stupidity bein the Lacking or marked by lack of intellectual acuity means that lack of intelligence would materialise poverty.
poverty does not cause ignorance, but ignorance can cause poverty. ignorant people tend to be hard to find a way out, so close to poverty. but people who are stupid but dare to speculate, they can be rich, by employing smart people around them

In my own opinion, being stupid will not tell you who are you and makes you poor because being stupid can also help you to develop yourself much further than anyone else. I believe the things that makes people poor and increase the numbers of poverty is because they didn't try to aim for success that they just sit there and do nothing, just waiting for a blessing to come.
Indeed, being stupid sometimes isn't that bad to be honest, I mean people will learn from their mistakes and try to improve and understand a lot of things. As you said for people who didn't try to make themselves better and work hard and they don't aim for anything, they'll end up really poor.
So basically it is about stupidity and laziness that makes them poor, because no matter how much effort has been made to get better and to get out of poverty, because if they don't have the intelligence to make these efforts really get out of poverty then at eventually they will continue to be poor even though maximum efforts have been made from time to time.

There are numerous people who have made their paths to success by simply working hard and showing hard devotion. This is a law of nature; the harder you work the bigger is your reward. Those who are billionaires or millionaires are not the ones who earned money over night. They have worked for years and have usually started from ashes. Never ever try to earn money through short cuts.

Being lazy, it also depends on your brain chemistry to be fair, some people have ADHD while others have laser like focus and are able to study learn on their max.
You didn't understood what's the point of this thread. In overall people live in poverty because they aren't clever, in some countries where there are elections, some political parties give people some bucks in order to choose them and imagine what? This people take money from them and choose them. They just want to feel satiated today and don't care what will happen in future, long term.
No one doubts that poor person can't become rich, no, being a poor is a huge stimulus for a person to overcome it and become rich, yes. But I can't agree with you when saying that poverty and wealth is a choice because when you are born in very poor family, parents don't care about your knowledge and etc, you are becoming victim of poverty again.

The answer is partially yes because stupid people can make inherit money/properties/assets or win a lottery but there are 99% chances that the money shall soon leave them or they shall soon loose all the money to the wiser  folks.

Nowadays, a large majority of the billionaires are those who inherited their wealth. Examples range from Mohammad bin Salman of Saudi Arabia and Gina Reinhart of Australia to the current president of the United States (Donald Trump). A few such as Mark Zuckerberg and Sergey Brin have managed to make a fortune for themselves. But the number of such individuals are not increasing.
Rich people in today’s world are usually the ones who have inherited wealth from their ancestors and few of them you have mentioned already. Self made billionaires are also great in number like CEO of facebook, CEO of Amazon etc. the reason why we don’t see more successful people now a day is that the competition has increased to maniac level. Those who have ideas don’t have resources usually.

With every passing year, the chance of someone becoming a self-made billionaire is declining. Because we have a large community of existing billionaires and they want the wealth to be concentrated in their hands. They form alliances with each other, to make sure that the wealth doesn't get distributed. Also, the tax system actually affects the middle class more than these billionaires. So for the emerging players, the conditions are tough out there.

Yes, only a few make it to the top. But there several young who are innovative and you can see their enthusiasm to succeed. I hope that the government of any country will continue to mould the young minds and support as possible to give these young a break to succeed.
Yes, the government should support that young generation who wants to make their future even brighter with crypto coins. Poor people need money to invest but when they invest at the wrong time it makes them pay only buy no profit. Better keep gates of investment open and available for people of a country so they will rock their investment profitably.
Governments have this responsibility of creating avenues of investment for young people who are full of beans to make their futures brighter by utilizing latest technologies. Crypto currencies are the future of the world and people are eager to learn about this technology. Those governments who are helping their young ones in this regard are the ones who will be ruling crypto world in the near future.
There is no doubt in this fact that digital currencies are the future monetary system of the world and they would be gradually legalized all over the world as more awareness spreads about them. Governments shall try to keep their young ones updated about latest trends of the world so that they become better citizens of future and are able to deal with future challenges effectively. Teaching about cryptos will prepare young people for better future.
Encountering and learning cryptocurrency is now inevitable, it is the future and people have no choice but to comply with this growing industry. Digital currencies will be the king of the monetary system and we will have a cashless society with less hassle because of the fast transaction and also cheap transaction fees.
Those who will simply want to have success in future shall not avoid investing into crypto currencies and try to understand the technology behind them and for that read as much as possible about these currencies. I am sure that people are soon going to get hands on this technology. If they don’t, they are not going to survive in the future because fiat will then become something obsolete.

Yes, I agree, but sometimes it is the other way around. Stupid people (those who thinks highly of themselves) discouraging stupid people (the poor ones) is the reason why they stay on where they are, they are stupid and also a weak individuals when it comes to emotion, they cannot handle the bullying they are getting from those toxic people in the society that's dragging them down into the mud, it is about the abusing of powers, instead of helping them, we chose to mock them, that is why there are people who left in poverty, because we lack on giving hand to others who need it badly.

You said so yourself, stupidity is when people makes poor decisioin making. When you put it like that, I guess it doesn't matter whether you are born from a poor or rich family. I know people makes mistakes and no one is perfect, but if you make the same mistake over again, that's stupidity. No matter what family you came from if you made a wrong decision, I'm pretty sure it'll affect everyone around you. That being said, even if you are from a rich family a poor decision could lead your family riches to bankruptcy. There are many examples such as excessive gambling, debt in banks because of loans, or having a very bad investment.
