I have always wanted to ask this question is it that there is no opportunity or they do not want to get rich
Mate please more to this I am confused here.
A man is poor only when he spends beyond his income. When a person spends more than his income then he will suffer and later on he will take loans to run his life and at some point he will not be able to pay off the loan and he will become totally helpless. His mind will not settle for work. If a man continues like this, he will become poor. When a person can avoid these problems then that person will not be poor. He will live a good life.
Well I see this as an act of carelessness and irresponsible behavior. Not being contented is a big problem in the society and this has led to the atrocities in our society today.

Spending more than your income has put so many people in a very big mess as they hover about taking loans and  are chronic debtors.

This happens as a  result of poor planning and budgeting. Lack of self discipline and self control are the night mares of this sets of people and when it is time for loan repayment, they are under pressure and   go about taking loan from another source to pay the other.  I have witnessed this situation before so I know what I am saying. It is very embarrassing to be caught with someone owing heavily.

Staying poor or being poor is never a choice, is just circumstances that one finds him or herself that's the major cause. If you check the poor operate in scarcity mode, the poor can't give more because they don't have much so their thinking is just how they'd manage the little they have.
Sometimes no pushing forward to make a difference causes it too and the poor like waiting for that one time opportunity that would change their lives.

One of the main reason is they are dedicating all their time and energy to a single field, individuals may develop a narrow skill set that doesn't have broad applicability.

The reason why there are so many poor people in the world today is probably because of the lazy nature of some humans, although I know the whole system can be hard and frustrating on everyone but thats the whole set up of life because nothing comes so easily, if you are not a working type then I guess you will have to settle with the little you have and remain so without wanting to break barriers and explore your full potentials because staying stagnant is also a sign of possible laziness.

If life was easy then we'll have so many people with riches that they don't deserve and they'll waste it thereby crashing the economy. If everyone gets rich then there will be no economy. For we to have a working economy, we need both the rich and the poor to be present in that economy. People stay poor because they fail to take risk that'll better their future.

We all have similar opportunities but not everyone accepts those opportunity and try to make the best out of it. Now we all have the opportunity to invest in Bitcoin by buying when the price is below $30k but many will passed by the opportunity then tomorrow they regret.

I think, lacked of education is part of some of the reason people stay poor in the society because when you are not educated, it will create low confidence that will make you not to search for opportunity or go to places that will change your life for good. Family background can be the reason people stay poor in their community, because if you are raise from a poor family, it will be difficult for you to believe that someone can get rich through Bitcoin investment, which is the easiest way many people used to make their family rich. Bad Environment can also be the reason people stay poor, because if you spend the rest of your life in a bad environment, it will be difficult for you to have access to greatness.

I really do not think education is a barrier to being wealthy and rich. I know people in my country that are very successful business men and women. They weren't educated as we thought but because of their drive to succeed, they were able to stand and be useful to themselves and the world.

Education is important everywhere.  It is also the foundation of how people will make their life.  Just to let you know, education is not limited to the four walls of a classroom.  Education is everywhere.  The moment you start learning, you are already educating yourself.  So it is wrong to say that those businessmen and women you stated are not educated, they are indeed educated on their endeavors reason why they become successful in their careers.  They might not have formal education where they get degrees and certifications, but education can also be informal where we learned things outside the school curriculums.

Sure mate. education brings a lot of changes in ones life and I do not doubt the fact that it is the a bed rock of life foundation. In as much as one learn new things everyday, that can also be termed as education. It does not necessarily means that one must go to school before one is educated. The knowledge and exposure alone shows a bit sign of how educated you are.
Mate, Education in this context and in respect to this conversation means going to school and acquiring  a degree that is what we were discussing about. I do understand your view and where you are driving to but that was not the context of our conversation. My response is quite inline with our conversation.
But there are people who do really pushes up the idea that education isnt always everything on determining someones success which is really a BS kind of idea.We know on how education would really be solving out their life challenges on the time that they would really be getting that good job after they have finished their studies. This is a solid foundation on where most people would be keeping an eye on and this is why its really that important on getting a degree but its true that success would really determine on how wise you would be taking a course on which path you would really be taking.

Being poor isnt a sin because we dont know on which family we would be born whether a poor one or rich one. Lucky if you do point on a rich one but if not then you would really be having a struggling life.
How to enhance it out?  Then you are the ones who would really be tending to discover because we do have our own ways of living and ways of how to handle our lives.
Decision making and other stuffs would really be depending on you.

It is God willing that we are born into families and not the desire of man to create but of God so I would not talk much about that. Irrespective of where we find ourselves in, there is every tendency that as a human being, you must survive but in the course of survival you must in one way or the other things accordingly. To being poor or rich is our choice depending of how we see life. 

Accordingly, nearly all  action  depends on personal belief and you owe no one an explanations to that. Each and every one individual has their own capacity and were born in their own various unique ways. So first and foremost,it is self discovery then  you  can be able to know our add value to the society.

Poverty starts with the income, of course bad money management is also another big part of it there is no denying that, you could make a lot of money and still be poor, I know a lot of them. But we also need to manage to get a lot more income to stay richer as well, people keep focusing on the wrong spending part of it too much and ignore that poverty starts with income first. Look at almost all the poor people in the world and you will see people with little to no income and that's why they are poor. There are whole tribes and towns in some parts of the world that makes less than we do per month, they basically still try to survive with basic stuff, as long as they do not die, they consider that as good, we still have THAT level of poverty. Its a shame, but its the truth.
You are right. Because basically if someone has a high income but he still can't get out of poverty then surely the problem for that person is about uncontrolled spending. as a result he could not make proper financial management and discipline. But for someone who lives in a poor country that has a lot of conflicts within the country and has a protracted economic crisis, the main problem there is indeed because of a small income due to a small minimum wage. So that financial management becomes difficult to implement when the financial condition is due to small income.

That's one hell of a vague assumption that obviously can't be true in its entire. Of course we've got the poor once that seems to swim in poverty through generations but, the poor doesn't always stay poor. There is always a breakout at some point for most of them with enough will power to convert there desires into something that could spring forth generational wealth.
People aren't always poor by chance but, by the opportunities they fail to utilise and better themselves.

A lot might complain of lack of opportunity but in the absence of opportunity, you get to create the opportunity you seek or desire. Complaints get you no where but having to work for it would get you just where your efforts is good for.
The reason why there are so many poor people in the world today is probably because of the lazy nature of some humans, although I know the whole system can be hard and frustrating on everyone but thats the whole set up of life because nothing comes so easily, if you are not a working type then I guess you will have to settle with the little you have and remain so without wanting to break barriers and explore your full potentials because staying stagnant is also a sign of possible laziness.
We cant really tell that all would really be that lazy on which there are some people who do really try out their best but their best wasnt enough (LOL). Yes, joking aside on which there are really things
which arent really that supposed to succeed despite of the effort and time we do spend it out and this is why some people would really be just simply give up and would really just stay on where they are and wouldnt really be making any further movement and just remain on what they are today. Well, i cant really blame up them though because there are really things which arent supposed for us
no matter how we do try. This is why its really that bit conclusive or harsh on making out those kind of assumptions that everyone is lazy but majority of them does but getting yourself out
of that poverty would really be entirely depending on you on how you would really be making yourself improved.

Many people think that poverty is a big problem in the country so that all countries try their best to eliminate poverty, but the most important thing we have to understand is that poverty will continue as long as there is life, there are many things only poor people want to do so that we have to be happy because the presence of poor people is very useful for life.

Correct. Everyone has the same goal to live in peace with their family. I think there are a lot of reasons to make it that way even though it sounds classic and it's all kind of like the impact of inflation. I think this is a big homework that must be handled by the government to restore the domestic economic cycle so that it returns to normal. Even though there is an implied message, people must also try to earn more income and not depend on and wait for government programs to come down in terms of new jobs.
What would happen if the government is the reason why that country is staying poor?
I mean in the 3rd countries, corruption of government is really serious. Any solution for this reason? You can't just pray and all the corruptions are gone.
the role of government is very big but that doesn't mean that all poor people can blame the government, the government only regulates policies and opens as many job vacancies as possible for its people and of course it doesn't fulfill all of them, that's why citizens are required to be independent in earning income.
I don't think a country is poor because of an incompetent and corrupt government.

People always try to say stuff like "the country you are is not an excuse". To a large extent this is not true. The country one is can limit a person.
People in developing countries don't have the same opportunities as people in developed countries. But still we should use that as an excuse to stay poor. The corruption of these 3rd world countries is so much and it won't be going away anytime so because the people who are involved in it are always benefiting from it.

I don't know how bad things are in all developing countries, but I believe no matter how bad things are, one can make an honest living for himself and break out of poverty. You just got to have the right mind.
I mean, there are other rich people in that country (even if the both of you do not have the same opportunities). Do not compare yourself with them, rather use them as a source of motivation.

Life's hard anywhere, but it's worst in a developing countries. So we've got to use our God given brain and figure out ways we can get out of poverty by ourselves because no one else will. Not the system, and definitely not the government.
I'm of the school of thought that you don't make it in life through luck. You've got to work for it.

I don't think there is a person in the world who cannot be rich.  Everyone's goal is to be established in life. Everyone strives to become rich and many succeed in reaching their goals. A person who earns three to four dollars a day wants to increase his income a little more and take care of his family a little better as he is taking care of his family now. A person who earns $10 per day wants a little more. And the expectation of a person who earns a thousand dollars a day is a little more than a thousand dollars, that is, everyone wants to get better from their position. 

Getting rich is easy for those who already have wealth but for those who have to start from scratch, getting rich is a very difficult task and most of the people fail in this difficult task.  But only those who have humble efforts and who work tirelessly are able to reach their goals in the end. Everyone wants to be rich but circumstances force people to remain poor.

People stay poor because lack of financial knowledge, no school, collage an any other education institution teach about financial knowledge this is also one of the reason why people stay poor. Apart from this, when poor mindset people gets money, they never use it for investment to generate more money from there. In same time some people born poor but with their right knowledge and hard work they become success in their life and become rich. Born being poor but with their determination and hard work never let them end up being poor.

I have come to realize that poverty is as a result of ones reasoning and ability to engage in meaningful activities that would help them grow.
Another factor I put into consideration is ones circle. If you are always in a circle of lousy people who think not of what they could do to generate more funds or being productive, you will remain like them because they would always drag you down to their level so the best thing is to always stay in circle higher than you if you must grow and be productive.
 
I really do not think education is a barrier to being wealthy and rich. I know people in my country that are very successful business men and women. They weren't educated as we thought but because of their drive to succeed, they were able to stand and be useful to themselves and the world.
I totally support this notion, because the choice of being poor is somehow in the hands of the actually person because poverty is something that is fixiated in anymore life but I do agree that some folks are born poor  but its actually a bigger when you have chosen to remain like that because the power of you remaining poor lies with you and yes bad company always contributes to static growth which is not advisable if anyone actually wants to grow in life.
