I will rather solve the problems of the poor, my reason being that, poor people tend to pay more to get their problems solved Ghana rich people, this is speaking from my own personal experience as a business man, I've done businesses with quite a lot of people, both the poor and the rich, and I can honestly and sincerely tell that poor people pay more to get their issues solved than rich people, so eat my services has to do with making money, I will prefer to solve poor people's problems, than solve that of the rich peoples, but then again, realistically speaking now, there is absolutely nothing wrong in providing a service that solves both poor people's problems and the rich people's problems all together, since all that matters at the end of the day is that problems are being solved.
Poor people have grit. They'll give you their last dollar if it'll get them to a better place. You're suggesting poor people pay more? In my experience, the rich? They've got money, and with that, they leverage. They negotiate. They play the game. So if your numbers are saying poor people pay more, there's something amiss

Now, I'm not saying you're wrong, but rich folks have resources, networks, and tools that they can use to help the poor. I've seen it. They've got foundations, charities, you name it. If you're in the business of solving problems (and it sounds like you are) then think bigger. Solve problems for both. Expand. Double down on that solution of yours. And always remember, you can't put a price on solving problems; it's priceless

You have no idea, there are few problems that the rich can't buy and same problems happens with the poor too, there is a saying that money can't buy everything, apart from you saying love, that's not the only thing money can't buy.

You can only help a few number of people, because everyone have their limits and if you don't respect your own limit you will end up becoming like those poor people that you are trying to help.

Fixing the problem of the rich is most times hitting a jackpot, because the problem that rich people can't solve always have a bounty on them for the fixers.
You cannot solve the problem simply by giving money, it will not change the life of the person to whom you give money, except for a short period. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach him how to fish and he will eat forever. From here it becomes clear that it is better to help a person correct the current situation, teach him how to improve his situation and he will be able to correct the situation. Giving everyone enough money will not work.

It is just a short-term solution. If you give them money, that will only last for a few days, and then again, they are asking for money, which is also not worth it because instead of doing work, they will not work anymore and will just ask for money. That is why giving them a job or any source of income is more worth it than giving money. I am not sure if you are aware right now that the government is giving some financial aid to the poorest, which I am a proponent of, but others tend to exploit it; they will not do jobs and they just wait on it, though some are lucky enough to use it as capital to have a small business like food or a small store so that they can still accumulate some money from it.

but is easier to solve a rich man's problem than solving the poor cases since with the rich you have money as a tool to work with in solving the problem

I think it's easier to solve the problems of a poor person than to solve the problems of a rich person. For a problem to be a problem that Money can't solve then that problem is pretty big.
Most, if not all the problems of the poor can be solved by money.

A lot of poor people die because they don't have money to afford good health care. Some can't afford to raise money for a particular surgery and the person dies. It happens all the time. Imagine creating a solution to that kind of problem.

There was a time when malaria was a destroyer in some parts of Africa, especially West Africa. In those days, it didn't mean there was no treatment for malaria, but it was pretty expensive so the poor couldn't afford it. Today with as little as $5 you can treat your malaria.

It's no secret that the rich live longer than the poor, but further research has shown that the gap in life expectancy between the rich and the poor is increasing.

For the poor, 80% of their problem can be solved with money, provided that money is properly managed because money can give them everything they lack. But for the rich, most of them need what you can't give them.

What problems do rich people have that they can't solve with money? Love? Can't decide which car to buy, and the garage only fits 12? How to avoid paying that 0.1% in taxes?

Maybe it depends on the specific service you're rendering? I'm a business person already, and from my experience I can tell you that having a few rich people as clients helps you go a long way in your business. Just one contract from a rich person is enough to put money in your pocket for a long time. So that's what I'm definitely choosing. Don't forget that how successful you are will usually depend on the circle of people you operate within. Wink

Very true, let use two barber that operates in different environment as an example and they both are offering services of keeping the hair neat. Those working in areas with wealthy individuals will be more successful than those working in areas with poor individual. For the same service, they'll be charging differently and the barber in the rich neighborhoods wouldn't have to have many customers to make money daily and some will request for home services that'll give the barber more money.

Solving the rich problem is always more profiting then that of the poor and from always interacting with the rich you can be exposed to more opportunities that the poor can't offer so unless you can solve the problem of both the rich and poor, choose rich problem to solve.

I came across this tweet, so the reference is the username. I thought it was a topic worth bringing up for discussion to see the choice that will be made by forum members. This topic is about solving problems as a service you render to make a living. Which of the problems will you prefer to solve as a service you render? the problems of the poor? or the problems of the rich? (support your choice with a reason)

I posted this here because it relates to choices we make concerning how we want our finance to be, if this is a wrong place and the topic fits better in "politics and society", I will be happy to move it there.
Reality is all of us need to make a living and we can't just keep carrying over in helping poor people just for the sake of solving the world problems. This isn't like you sacrificing your life to be a Saint or even generate popularity.

There would always be poor people because there's none, no other people would strive to work for other. Kinda reminds me of my curiosity before on what if everyone was just rich if not middle class in the society. How terrible would that be, I wonder?

Rich people and poor people have different problems, the main problem that is most commonly faced by poor people is finance, they work to support their families so they can eat three times a day. Poor people only think about their fate and that of their families so they can eat and sleep well. While the rich have broader problems that have a relationship with the poor in terms of salary payment problems. The rich also don't only think about their fate, but there are tens or hundreds of poor people's fate that they have to think about if their business is not running effectively.

I will choose to solve the problems of the rich, not because I don't care about the fate of the poor, but when the problems of the rich are resolved, indirectly the problems of the poor are also solved.


You have an interesting perspective on the problem of the rich and the poor. It can be said that the problem of the poor completely depends on the rich, so as long as the rich can solve their problems, the poor will also partly solve their problems. Like what happens in times of crisis when companies and businesses file for bankruptcy, leading to widespread unemployment and it's a poor man's problem. And to solve this problem, we need new businesses, startups, and that's a problem that needs to be solved by the rich.

I completely agree with you. This is what I mean by stating that solving the problem of the rich helps on a bigger scale in a way that affects not only the rich but the poor as well. The rich have a higher influence and effect on the economy and other industries. Solving the problem of the poor, on the other hand, rarely affects the rich in any way. Hence, if given the chance, I'd rather solve the problem of the rich due to the effects it will cause for the majority.

This makes sense, but it all depends on how much the rich people are able to empower the lives of the poor, because some rich people are more concerned about developing their own business without looking at the situation of the people under them.
However, the problems of the rich and the poor will always coexist, at least people should also be able to solve the problems of the poor in order to get a better life

But what is the problem of the poor? Is that money?  and if you want them to have money, you have to provide jobs, you can't give them free money.  and only the rich have enough intelligence and potential to open companies and factories to provide jobs.  there is no one who doesn't care about money and growing his business, and once the rich can expand the business.  that means they are creating more jobs, and that can be said to be solving the problem of the poor.

Businesses are run by rich people and those people who are not doing any job yet become a part of these jobs so this job related problem of poor people can be solved by rich people. We can say that rich people can manage the problems of poor people but we cannot say that it completely depends on rich people because there is just a difference of money between them whereas all humans are alike.

If a person wants to solve the problem by himself then he will not see towards his money but will try to resolve the issue No matter from where he takes the money for resolving his issue. Job related issues can be solved by rich people but other problems either can be solved by themselves or will never be resolved.

more useful for solving problems than the poor. Why? because the rich cannot be helped financially, they are mostly stubborn and self-centered. when we say we give to the poor they will accept it with pleasure, it has solved the problem for those of us who have advantages, this is simple but not as difficult as we think.

Whether rich or poor, a problem is a problem because the affected person doesn't know how or have a way out of it. I know we're dealing with a hypothetical situation here. However, if I were to make an intervention; I would look at the problems both are bringing to me and not their social status. This calls for a dispassionate approach. No doubt, looking at it from the prism of sentiment one is likely tempted to favour the poor. And rightly so too because the rich can always sought themselves out with their colleagues but the poor aren't lucky to have that kind of option. Putting the issue on a scale, devoid of prejudice, is the way I will go.

This is a typical black or white question. I guess that we can't be so exhaustive when we pose this kind of questions: it will depend in many factors like time, place, opportunity, who are the rich, who are the poor, consequences of activity and inactivity...

One could answer that, in general, problems of the rich/poor should be addressed first, but it would only serve to show the political ideology of each one (left/right; democrat/republican; socialist/liberal), because there is no universal rule for that question.

This topic is about solving problems as a service you render to make a living. Which of the problems will you prefer to solve as a service you render? the problems of the poor? or the problems of the rich? (support your choice with a reason)

If I had a service like that, of course I would choose to solve the problems of the rich, the reason is that with their finances we can measure the problems they face and most importantly, of course, manage finances. In this case we have got one main supporting factor, namely money, that way the solution to the problem can be found more easily.

Conversely, if the service is to solve the poor condition of the community, there will definitely be many factors, namely money, jobs, and human resource needs. Now, interestingly, if we can solve the problems of the rich, it will automatically open up opportunities for the poor to get allocations such as jobs. As many people have said above solving one individual problem will open up 10 useful solutions for the public.

I don't think this is true because I can name many problems of the rich that can get solved but that doesn't mean the problem of the poor is also solved. Rich individual travel with expensive means of transportation like airplane and if I was to launch a new airplane that make travelling private a lot easier for rich individuals and it makes me billions, that doesn't mean the problem of the poor individuals has been solved because they can't afford to fly private like the rich individuals.

The problems of the rich and poor are different, the poor individuals mostly care about problem of their needs but the rich problem are more than needs but extend to wants and that's because they have alot of money that they won't have issue taking care of their needs.

Poor people only have the will to work and the energy used to work, whereas the rich have the money to pay all the workers. Solving the problems of the poor has no continuity with other parties, they do not have the ability financially to solve the problems of the people around them.

I prefer to solve the problems of the rich because they have the facilities to develop and can solve the problems of the poor. In general what we often encounter in everyday life rich people always provide services to poor people to make a living. So solving the problems of the rich is more effective than solving the problems of the poor because the rich can provide employment facilities to the poor, while the poor cannot afford to employ the rich.
Well, it would basically depend on the problems of the rich and your problem-solving capability. If you are capable of solving the issues of a lot of poor by providing them jobs and food and shelter or whatever they need, you should probably go with that, but if your capability is to fix a problem of a few rich people which will further open doors for a lot of poor people getting jobs and an income, that is definitely the thing you should go with.

That's why I say that one needs to evaluate their own capabilities and problem-solving resources and then see the problems of both the rich and the poor and then decide which side they will choose, you can't just make up your mind and make a decision based on your own assumptions without any facts.

Rich and poor people have their own problems according to their own portions. If they choose me to hear their problems, of course I welcome. But won't provide any solution if it doesn't suit my knowledge and experience preference. I just don't want to add more problems because of wrong advice, and I don't want to become another corner of the problem.
Even if it were to suit my knowledge and experience preference, I wouldn't dare to give advice to anyone. Because we are not in their position and we cannot know what they will gain or lose if they follow our advice. We are also not responsible for their lives so giving real advice should be considered. Honestly, even we ourselves have problems that we need to solve but we still can't solve them. So I will choose to refuse to give advice to someone.

The rich always find a way of managing their problems and the poor are always dependent on the government in time of solving problems, That is what is affecting the majority of us in our society and it is fine that the government is supposed to stand for its people but even at that we should try to solve some little problem, it will still turn to a situation everyone will want to wait for the government,  any societal problem should be solved by the society, and the rich solve there own problem and also look for additional problems to solve which will bring them more money because in the process of solving problem brings money.
