Do you believe this is one of the things that keep people poor in this world?

When they can't accept the unhappiness that comes with chasing your goals.

Like if you want to go on vacation in Fiji, you will have to endure 3 long plane rides, jet lag, delayed meals, expensive hotel resort fees, prolonged periods without hydration while waiting for buses and cars to pick you up, as well as weeks priming your boss for your vacation with over time work before you leave: it's not as easy as having a taste for luxury and desiring tasty organic food, there are hardships involved in travelling there.

And if you want good instagram photos of hiking trails, you have to train your muscles and your body mass to endure long and difficult hikes up long trails so you can get the unique vantage points that give you those photos.

I've been harassed and gossiped about by those that were jealous of my restaurant meals, but I had to pay for it, and I had to lose weight before and after each dining visit, to avoid weight gain after my visit. It's not easy to force yourself to lose 3 pounds each week to avoid weight gain every time you dine at a restaurant.

A lot of people see the gold, but they do not see the pirate ships they have to fight to get to the gold.

What keeps people poor is like what happen almost 2 years go jobs moved in to different places different stats wages al most doubled.. People went out abd bought new cars homes. But like 100 years ago there are people in this world who control everything annext thing you no they put a stop to all of it by hiking, food prices up almost double and triple. Now rinse an apartment complexes doubled and tripled if it has to do with anything of the American dream, it is doubled and tripled. They do not want people to succeed and enjoy life housing is wood sky high because they don't want people to own homes any more. They want people to sell them their home. They will buy your home for pennies on the $, but they want everybody in one big tower unit just to keep everybody clthe. Government wants your property. There's businessmen out there that what you're property. Want your land. Right now, all over the internet. You can get windows for your homes. You can get roofing from your homes for dirt cheap.
You can get a loan for your home but you don't have to pay it back. Why? Because they want to percentage of your home and then they will wreck you. And take over your home. What keeps people poor is our government will not protect its people. Our government is part of destroying the people.
Each day they do something, they get a little bit closer.

No. When your wages are so low you can barely make rent, don't know if you'll have food money end of the month and your having to borrow just to get bus fare to work then you don't have the resources to self improve.

What keeps the poor down is your hatred of the poor. If you speak to them one common thread is "I've studied hard, worked hard etc but I'm always sidelined for the better jobs." By brandishing the poor as lazy we discourage employers from giving them a chance.

That school leaver from a poor family will have to work ten times as hard as the rich one to get the same grades but he'll rarely get the same job opportunities.

It's definitely one of the reasons, but obviously not the only one.
