Topic: Which problem will you choose to solve? (Read 1373 times)

Someone said that "worrying about bills, food, or other problems leaves less capacity to think ahead or to exert self-discipline. So poverty imposes a mental tax." The Global Inequality Crisis Report says the total wealth of 2153 world billionaires was found to be more than the wealth of 4.6 billion people. The world's richest 1% have more than twice as much wealth as 6.9 billion people. As per the latest information released by the World Bank, nearly half the world is trying to survive on $5.50 a day or less. So we should focus on the 99 percent who are poor, not the 1 percent who are already rich. It's required a concerted effort and bold economic decisions.

The view that you describe is examined from the behavior of the capitalists, they do not like to lift the poor for the better or in the same ranks as them if the poor are not useful to them. But not all of their rich people are capitalist and have such a viewpoint, but only a small portion if calculated.


From the conception of ethics is true like that, but that does not mean that poor people who have become better will have a more concern for other poor people, this is relative and back again to those people who can become better at the level of life.
But in another point of view, they do help the rich, the better they work the better also for the owner of the business, and for the rich they are a tool to increase their wealth, this is a reverse thought but is quite logical if seen from this point of view .

I would be thinking your view is that the few rich or that rich will help bring out thousands of poor out of that poverty but the majority view of the mindset of the rich is that they don't like to help the poor out of poverty because they want people under them for services they think they have overgrown because of their social status. This factor might disqualify help for a single rich. This is a general view but I believe their are few rich that also want good for the poor.


It is trite to consider helping the poor for different reasons. At least the number of poor people keep increase and that leads into different vices in the society. The poor with their size if given help means their will be more labour force that will also contribute to the GDP of the country and that will improve standard of living. A poor person has a very good idea of how to better others behind him because he has been there and that will mean more people getting out of poverty than what would have been with helping a rich.

It's a dumb statement for a start. Firstly, rich people problems are nothing like the poorest and they usually revolve around legislation designed to regulate their activity for the better of everyone - which are not really problems at all. Nor is helping "poor" people necessarily a good thing, I'd love to help genuine people stuck in trouble but not people who willfully waste money. The best you can do is try to educate future generations how to wisely use money and how to get the best value education possible for them. University can be good, but I think they have maybe been a bit too commercialized because there are too many worthless courses out there that send the students into staggering debt without much opportunity to use them well.

First of all, if you are seeking to get money from helping people then I suggest you help the rich as it will ultimately lead you to have a good network for your business or investments. Helping poor people on the other hand will require you to have your own money to give financial assistance to them, because let's be real here, most of the problem of the poor people is money related. Additionally, if we are being realistic here it is impossible to help two billion people unless you are rich or influential. Hence, if you really want to help the poor you have to be fully realistic and do not expect that you'll be making much fortune out of it.

Lovely topic. Both of them will make you good fortune and generational wealth in the process in you know what you want and how to get it done.

Solving the problems of the rich will make quickly, though I do not want to be involved with one who steals my ideas to implement on his own without acknowledge me.

There are so many poor people in the world, last time I checked, we have more poor people than rich people in the world.

Let's say I solve the problems of two billion people, I'll end up becoming rich. With a net worth in billions.
I've always wanted to solve and would love to solve the problems of the poor anyday anytime.

Good point here. People often think that being rich means having the best side of everything. What we tend to forget is that there are negative things that comes with bring rich like the responsibility that comes with it, how people seem to always watch your every move and decisions to judge you if you do something that doesn't fit their standards and expectations, and how sometimes it is hard to show emotions because people expect you to be cold and strong. Hence, I understand what you meant by helping the rich who needs help from things we often forget they might be dealing with just because they have the money.

Yes, it's true that everything works quite harmoniously and complements each other. Because basically rich people need services from poor people's work and poor people also need wages by working for rich people. The government and the rich also work well together in this regard. Because to establish a company, government permission is required. And another thing is that rich people pay quite high taxes to the government. And the tax money is also useful for increasing state income to develop the country to become more advanced. and also to help people who need financial assistance. And I am happy because in my country, when difficulties occur, the government always provides assistance to the people. Even though it's not evenly distributed, I appreciate the effort.

I know that most people will rush towards solving problems for the poor people,  there are already so many persons and agencies  rendering help in that category. I will go towards solving problems for the rich, many persons do not bother to ask how these guys are faring, everyone feels they have money so they don't have any issue, lending a solution to a rich man will not only solve his problem but also make  me an asset. So I'll solve problems  for rich folks anytime any day

You have made your point or view from the first sentence so there is no need to supporting the poor again. But as for me, I will solve the problems of the poor. Because if I solve the problems of the poor I will have freedom to move and the request from them will reduce, but if I solve the already rich people problem then I have not solve any problem in the world. I am in this world to solve the problem of the poor and not the rich. The rich have money to solve their problem so if I have money to solve problem, it is the poor.

According to a philosopher, Machiavelli, a leader that support and solve the problems of the poor is the true leader and not the one who support the oppressive Oligarchy. The leader that support the poor will have the freedom to do things than the leader that support the rich.   

Government of a country is not able to give a job to an unemployed person and they must complete the recruitment process within the specified rules. Moreover, it is not possible to hire additional manpower in favor of the government. But a rich man can create any employment opportunity for a poor man if he wants which is not always possible by the Government. Poor people benefit from those who are rich. The rich and the poor complement each other but the poor are able to find employment because of the existence of the rich.

There are many rich people in our society but not all of them are interested in helping the poor people because of which the poor people in our society are facing many problems. If the rich people in our society are with the poor people then our society will improve a lot in a very short time. And  No poor people will stay in our society. We can help the poor people in our society if we want to, but it requires the help of all of us.

I think helping doesn't discriminate whether the person is rich or poor. As long as you can help, that is what we will provide. Because there are times when the poor help rich people they don't know, or even the middle class, or even the poor.

The same is true of other rich people; there are those who are helped who are poor people, and they are also rich in the state of our country. Usually the rich help because they have a lot of money; the poor often help based on their skills and unique possessions that rich people don't have.

if it concerns rich and poor I think it would be a long way of saying we are humane if we help poor people. even if someone is rich in trouble. what did they experience? Usually rich people have difficulties that are not of general concern and of course they have to look for experts. such as if they are suffering from an illness. different from poor people who most people should be able to help. I'm sure if we help them just $1 it will be very beneficial for them. at least it allows them to eat at that time.

Assistance must be aimed at people who need it and in this case it is poor people because most poor people always have problems with their finances and economy in life. Meanwhile, rich people are people who don't have any problems with that except for their own thoughts, who may have to keep thinking about how to maintain the assets they have well enough and also think about being able to continue running the business they have built during their lifetime.

It is true that if all rich people were willing to provide job vacancies for poor people in this world, there would not be more people in trouble in this world even though those who have worked would not immediately become rich. But at least they can continue to be independent with income from their work, but every rich person who wants to employ poor people in the company or factory they own will always make special criteria for each person. So not all poor people can be helped by this when recruiting employees for companies or factories owned by rich people.

I will choose to help the poor. The truth is there's nothing wrong with being wealthy but a rich man sees money as an opportunity while the poor see it as something to be earned. Helping the poor and needy people is crucial to build the society, for example if every rich individual can help the poor with job opportunity and providing their needs I don't think poverty rate will be high in our society. And also I don't think a rich man will ask for money, rather a rich man will ask for something precious and valuable maybe an external life or beyond and nobody can afford something beyond

The rich and the poor all have their own basic problems that they personally try to solve in order to defend them. Most of the problems faced by the rich are their wealth and in various commercial fields they face many kinds of problems, and they need a lot of money to solve them, and they can solve them easily. But when a poor person faces a problem, it takes a long time to overcome it. But whether a person is rich or poor, their problem must require crime, and if they do not commit crime, they are never in trouble, so I cannot take sides without good judgment. I think that a rich man can solve his problem easily, but a poor man can never solve his problem easily, but after going through a lot of trouble he can solve his problem.

Both the rich and the poor have their own problems to solve. I have seen that if a rich person faces any problem, he can overcome that problem with the wealth he has. But a poor person can never overcome his own problems with money or wealth, because he has no money and wealth. Moreover, rich people have problems and poor people also have problems, basically rich people can deal with problems and their problems are easily solved. But poor people have to put in a lot of effort and trouble to deal with their problems while they stumble a lot in solving those problems. The ratio of problems between rich and poor is the same but rich people can easily deal with the problem, but it is different for the poor poor which they can easily do and have to face many kinds of dangers to deal with the problem.

I also agree that to help other people we can do it in many ways. Either with knowledge or other services without having to become rich. But to help more people, other things are needed, such as strong finances. Like building schools in the interior where there are no school buildings. However, to help poor people we don't have to wait to become rich first. Well, we can help starting with the small things.
But we must also have high aspirations, namely to become rich and provide more jobs and pay the employees we have with wages that are more appropriate than those offered by other companies.

Talking to rich people can indeed grow our insight regarding financial management and can also increase our motivation to work harder. But talking to poor people has just as much benefit. Namely, we will get a very expensive insight into how they live a simple life but still smile and be happy. Honestly, I mostly see children on the streets who are very cheerful and they live like they are full of freedom. And the looks on their faces show signs that they are enjoying their lives sincerely even though they are full of financial shortcomings. In essence, we can learn to be grateful to poor people. And we can also learn to survive in difficult situations from them.
The point is that rich people and poor people have positive things that we can learn from. But in both there are also negative things that we should not imitate.

To be able to help other people, you don't need to be rich first, there are many things we can do to help other people physically and mentally.
Currently, many people join or join humanitarian volunteers and help with many things without needing to spend money, just with their energy and thoughts, because many people also need help, not financial, it can be help from energy or knowledge.

It is true that there are many positive things that we can get from rich people and one of the widespread benefits of hanging out with rich people is the opening of relationships that will be mutually beneficial.
