[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My theory is that most of the kids who are well off are too spoiled and unmotivated. Poverty can be a great motivator. [/quote] Only someone who has Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs fully met could make such a delusional statement. The only reason you're not in poverty is because your parents were not poor. That's it and explains most socioeconomic outcomes. The vast majority of poor will live hard, grinding, scarring lives. And they will die under the same miserable conditions. Even after being "motivated" and toiling hard for the entirety of their miserable lives.[/quote] Well said.[/quote]
