That would surely happen to lazy people. They better till the soil to plant good productions or do laundrying to well off families than suffer starvation.
Lazy people do not always want to work because they want free things and they are the kind of people who will always complain that there is no money or they are finding it hard to feed themselves

I think that a lot of this is due to the attitude and also on the other hand to the decisions made, you are always in time to be able to change your attitude and be able to take advantage of new opportunities and to make choices more intelligently to be able to move forward and achieve better things in your life.

People from some communities, women are often denied opportunities they deserved , especially if they work at home , in some cases, all the correspondence is robbed, so that no one can contact the citizen.
This is unacceptable at all. There should be a good report system to the police and the responsible of the theft must go to trial and face jail.
Those poor people are lazy and they only like to have a baby factory, 8 kids, 10 kids, 12 kids, how could they be not poor? It is not fate, they lack the initiative to make their living good.
In fact, if they are starving themselves, how to maintain 12 kids? All will end starving, obviously. Avoiding contraception is a form of irresponsibility in such cases.

In some countries, the corruption level is very high, and the government employees robbing the correspondence will first destroy the reputation of their victim making fake allegations, so that all complaints are ignored.

That is right, there are contraceptives, and they are free in government clinics. They are just lazy and happy to always make babies.

When you are poor, successful people say it was your choice. However, many of you may have tried hard but did not get the results you wanted. I think it is a little cruel to tell someone it was your choice. What do you think now? In your opinion, if someone is poor, is it fate or the person's choices?
Most atimes it could be fate and not necessarily choice, because no one would deliberately do what will make he or she remain poor for the rest of his or her life, sometimes also it could also be choice, when you have chosen the wrong path to follow, it's effect will definitely reflect in the outcome which is poverty.

We can be born poor but to die poor is a choice as we can work hard and change ours and our families fortune by working hard and achieve everything in life
You're so right, we can change our poor living by working hard, live in frugality, create small business or find many jobs in the labor sector. Those who don't adapt change are lazy people.

If you are very dedicated and you can work very hard, it will be much more easier for you to escape poverty and make things work for yourself in a positive way because it is doable.

Those poorest of the poor need not mind the kind of work they have as long as they are paid. Later, they will be hired by a good company when sighted of their hard work, They never know if they are observed.

Heavily pitiful, I'm so sorry. I suppose to leave poverty in such countries the best is to move abroad as soon as possible. It's what many people of my former country do: they move. Unfortunately, not everyone that would like to move to avoid poverty can leave my former country. People who have third aged and sick parents obviously can't. Courageous people that prefer to face poverty to not leave their old and sick parents.

We need to look for money and need to work hard to achieve it but we should never every try any shortcuts to earn money as they are mostly illegal and bad

You are right. Every time we see an announcement claiming we'll earn big to only do a few trivial activities per day, even when it's not illegal, it's a scam. Or a Ponzi scheme turning a fraud. In a Ponzi scheme, only people at the top of the pyramid become rich, obviously at the expense of the majority of the users.

Being rich is not by choice but directly by fate everyone may choose to go on the same business but the level of success in the business will be different

It is not good to be poor and you should make a decision to get out of it because if you decide to get out of poverty it will be very possible and easily achieved.
Easily if we live in a country where the government is fair and have no interest to maintain people in extreme poverty, as in North America and North Europe. In my former country became impossible to get rid of poverty. Too many unfair laws that force people to spend for very futile things. Otherwise, the government fines you very severily because they argue you are living in an illegal way. I make an example: the average salary in my former country is between 1000 and 1500 euros, while to rent an apartment of one-bedroom averagely costs between 600 and 900 euros per month, even more if you live in big cities like Milan or Rome (out of condominium maintenance, that can rise up to 500 euros per month more, out of electricity, water, gas bills, to not talk about the domestic wifi bill that nowadays is not just a whim). And if you have children, a one-bedroom apartment is not enough, unless you decide to make them live in a miserable way. If your wife (or husband) cannot get a job (it often happens if you don't have acquaintances among the politicians, especially if you are a woman), you must count on that salary of 1000 euros per month to live. Ok, to get rid of poverty, lot of people had the idea to live in a caravan or trailer, the only way to avoid those shamefully high expenses of an apartment. Well, they get severely fined because for the Italian laws this is an administrative crime. You can't occupy even your own land (to not talk about the public floor) if you don't get a formal (and very expensive) permission by the Major House. And the Major House is used to reject the permission. The only legal way to live in a caravan or trailer is to continuously move from camping to camping all the year long, but how is possible without leaving your job? You could say: leave for the countryside. But how to, if your job is located in a big city and the countryside is, for ex., at a distance of 3 hour driving?

It is more of a "poverty mentality". People who were born poor remain poor because of their thinking. Ah, I will die poor because I was born poor. No, darling, if the circumtances you are in allow you to still strieve to work, go work. And if you are earning low salary, what would you do? As they say, Live within your means - don't act as if you are earning huge. Eventually move up the ladder.

Attend trainings to enhance your skills to be promoted within. I know it is not simple as said, but if you are motivated to get out of the poverty mentality, you can do it.

What is clear is that no one wants to remain poor and we all try, but for example, many forums have recently stopped paying users. Online income is becoming more limited day by day. It doesn't matter how hard we try
Yup also for peaple who live in low tier counries they want to make money they try however it's not easy to make money for them at all no matter how much they try in some counries you can't do anything about it so you are poor for the rest of your life
