The One Truth About Poor People by Mikester: 8:28am On Feb 16, 2021
As it happens, we will always have the poor around us due to diverse reasons given by circumstances, mishaps and sometimes choices. I intend to dwell on the third.

Some poor people are poor by their own choice, poor by their own doing and not really by circumstances, at least about 45%, about one third of them. They're usually the very architects of their own misfortune.

Why am I saying this?

It's because some poor people today love pleasure too much and people who love pleasure excessively will not go far in life. It's just that.

Whoever gives his/her days to pleasure, who loves and seeks enjoyment first will forever remain in the congregation of the poor.

If you're a guy or lady, reduce the rate at which you please yourself and invest more in yourself for your future happiness. Time is everything and shouldn't be wasted on temporary enjoyment.

Use the time you have now to establish yourself or else...

Well, I'm just saying what you already know...

People who are energy filled, determined and persistent require less from buhari to succeed. Energy and persistence conquers all things.

It breaks some people down but it only destroys the weak minded and the comfort seekers. Our destiny is not in Buhari's or any gorvernor's hands. It is in ours and we decide what to do with it. People who tend to seek pleasure foremost are the poorest and people who are quick to blame others for their problems are the feeble-minded.

This is very thoughtful and I very much agree with your stated factor. I know people who use to earn relatively a good living until all kinds of policy summersault in this administration turned their lives for the worse at least for the moment. It wasn't their own doing.

Example was the closure of boaders. It had negative impact on some families.

In my own opinion, Some poor people are not the cause of their predicament or problem. For example my uncle was a prosperous bixnex man. Until His shop got burnt by fire caused by His neighbour. Right now He is living from hand to mouth

Then it is right to say he is broke. He was broken down by that incident but his level of determination and persistence will determine if he will be destroyed by it. If he does gets destroyed, then and only then can he be termed poor. My sincerest symphaties to him by the way.





I'm open to debunking.

When you pass by the street and see that poor man/woman living in an uncompleted building, borrowing from people, complaining everyday and you tend to believe that he is in that state due to his own fault, my friend with all sincerity, you are veritably right.

Like you said "some people", I also said "some people". I didn't say it applied to all.

So technically, we're saying the same thing.

This is how they come up with submission without even doing research.


So someone those that are once rich and now poor nko. It’s their choice too, that fire engulf their properties, it’s their choice that they lost everything to tribal war, like the case of civil war. Many circumstances can make people poor.

And you, don’t think because you have few naira inside your account you should glory on the poor. Because sickness can wipe everything away within a year. So stay humble

These are your own words not mine. I never generalised

This is your own conspiracy theory against me, not actuality and I should say, it is nothing but a poor way to defend your point

I agree with the op and also share views with others comments but success is a product of many obstacles and challenges, it requires falling n rising, it is not for go safe people. Amidst all odds, you still need to pick yourself, we agree that govt policies and others do affect things but the real successful people never allow such to enter them.
Success is an orchestrated journey with well documented plans and processes that requires diligent follow up.
Many people get carried away when their businesses start giving returns and neglect future factors that may possibly affect their business, many of them start pushing their incomes into liabilities such as buying cars, building houses both in villages n their residences. People who sustain businesses lives a frugal lifestyles at the base of their businesses, they live simple, they look for other opportunities hungrily in order to diversify.

I totally disagree with your position. Alot of factors contribute to it.

How can a man earning 15-20k monthly survive on such peanut. Blame our leadership for their failure.

Living below standard of living is the fault of the leadership. How much is the minimum wage in this country and what is the cost of living of a 5 year old in a month?

One can only have savings and invest when one has met the basic need of life like clothing, shelter and food.
