Eight (8) Proven Ways To Become Poor And End In Abject Poverty. by Nobody: 11:47pm On Jul 10, 2019 |
NL_NATION Nobody plans to become poor and yet a great many people end up poor. Here are some of the best known ways of ensuring a life of penury: 1. Be born in a third world country If you are one of the millions born in very poor countries with no human rights, no education or healthcare and a repressive regime then you face enormous difficulties in escaping a life of poverty. Some do but the vast majority is condemned to extreme hardship. 2. "We don’t need no education…" If you drop out of school or fail to achieve a basic education then you will severely restrict your chances of employment. What is more: it's difficult to acquire further skills if you lack the basic ones. However this method does not guarantee poverty as there are some exceptional people who, because of sheer hard work or innate ability, succeed despite little formal education. 3. Develop an addiction. Addictions are good ways to squander wealth and health. Hard drugs are fast routes to perdition. Gambling works really well too. The time-honoured choice is alcoholism which has ruined many a career and relationship. Yet there are exceptions. A tiny number of habitual gamblers win, some alcoholics can function for a long time. In the end the addiction usually wins. 4. Never save. Savings help build wealth so a good plan for long-term poverty is to blow any extra earnings or bonuses on having a good time. 5. Go directly to jail. A proven way to avoid success is to get involved in crime, particularly early in life, and end up in jail where you can waste the years that could have been spent acquiring an education and useful skills. Petty criminals find it hard to get jobs, build relationships or retain wealth. Of course some criminals end up rich but they risk being eliminated by rivals. 6. Stay in a dead-end low-paid job. A low-paid job is fine if you really enjoy what you do or if it is a route to something better. But many people hate what they do and earn barely enough money to survive. They are reluctant to take a risk, to learn new skills or to try something new. They stay on a road that leads nowhere. 7. Avoiding WORK. Some unfortunate people are too ill to work but many able bodied people make a decision to live on fraudulent benefits and to avoid work. Perhaps they intend to marry a movie star or to win the lottery but working their way up is not part of the plan. D-I 1 Like |

There is one thing I have understood about life.... I agree with you to a large extent though op but LIFE has no formula, what works perfectly for one may certainly not work for another . In maths 1+1 is 2 anyday, anywhere, anytime but not so in life, the race is not to the strong but by the grace of God. I have seen brilliant men in poverty and dull men live in wealth, I have seen morally right men in poverty and questionable character men live in affluence, I have seen first class searching for job, and no certificate holder work in big establishment,I have seen seemily smart guys not making it big, he just can't get it right after several trials but just one button pressed by a seemily lazy Buffon and gbam riches falls on him, I can go on and on . Like I said life has no formula, even an individual who spent 20 yrs in jail came out hustled and overtook financially his peers who never went to jail.you can't tie any definition to life, No you can't , but you can only summarise life as a " teacher the more we live the more we learn "your learning stops when you die. 8 Likes |

Ah! What you wrote is true. These things destroy many who are guilty of them except a negligible few. However not all poor are guilty of these things. This life get as e be. NB: Please, people should ignore lilwetd.ick. She came for Ubun.ja. Her usual "if you are broke, you are wrong/worse off in argument and claims" and "if I hate you, your actions or speech, or the group you belong to then you are broke" mentality are here again. Ubun.ja's harsh truth, logic and maturity frays her. Please ignore her. |

Martinez39: Her last topic (Beta-Male) really makes sense. A real alpha male should be a blessing to the society, not a menace. Most guys here claiming ALPHA are simply SIMPLETONS flexing their narcissistic tendencies on the so-called "weaker" sex. A real Alpha male doesn't bully or troll a female to caress his ego. 3 Likes

Martinez39: An ALPHA male is simply a man who upholds moral values for the betterment of his life & immediate society. He is a LEADER. |

lordskid:Wrong! Wrong!! Wrong!!! An alpha male is a male with the following characteristics: 1) He is confident in himself and has a good self esteem. 2) He knows what he wants and goes for want he wants. 3) You can't control him or manipulate him to be your slave, be you man or women. 4) He is not a slave to female validation and attention. He does not give a fvck about men's or women's opinion that's why the shaming language of women can't work on him. 5) He thinks for himself; knows how to handle his issues and he takes responsibility for his actions. 6) An alpha does not let women control him. In a relationship, he knows he is the prize. He treats women and men equally and doesn't worship vagina. In a relationship, he is ever ready to show the lady the exit door if she misbehaves unlike beta males. I won't fault you for your ignorance but if after this explanation you remain obstinate, I will cease arguing with you. 4 Likes 1 Share |

I disagree with the quote at the beginning. Romancing with the rich can actually make one to be rich if one is smart. Even in Igbo, there's this adage that ego na efe efe meaning riches are contagious. All these weed smokers just sit down and write some silly things and people quote them up and down without thinking. |

lordskid:I brought that up in hope that I could point to you that it is foolish to assume things about people you've never met. Assumption is the lowest form of knowledge. BTW, why make scathing attacks on people when you can engage in a reasonable discussion? You don't even understand the term "alpha male" yet you joined lilwetd.ick to shame them. Does it make sense to judge people you don't even understand? |
Re: Eight (8) Proven Ways To Become Poor And End In Abject Poverty. by Nobody: 8:28pm On Jul 11, 2019 |
Martinez39: Seems your own version of ALPHA MALE tends to devote his life to the "domination" of the "weaker sex", which really betrays those moral values you stated in 1, 2, 5. A "confident" man doesn't portrays himself as a kind of "PRIZE" to salve his ego. 2 Likes |

J111333: It's a great quote with lots of wisdom. "SOCIALIZE" as used in the quote signfies these: ".....socialize with the poor": FRUGALITY "........ socialize with the rich": EXTRAVAGANCE The former is the first quality one MUST possess in the quest of accumulating WEALTH. Btw, your argument is valid but not as the quote signifies. 1 Like |

lordskid:How did you come to the meaning of the "socialize" as you put it? Are you the quoter? By the way, the man said romance and not socialize. I've seen a lot of poor dudes as you call it who get connected to good businesses while hanging out with the rich. Hanging out or socializing with the rich doesn't necessarily mean you spend lavishly as they do. |
Re: Eight (8) Proven Ways To Become Poor And End In Abject Poverty. by Nobody: 9:30pm On Jul 11, 2019 |
J111333: The quote is about one of the qualities a seeker of wealth must imbibed: FRUGALITY. It's not about WAYS to wealth as you trying to argue. You are telling us about WAYS to wealth. The quote is telling us about QUALITY that attracts wealth. You are right. The quote is right. |
