Why do we stay poor?

I grew up poor, as a kid, laying and sleeping on a cardboard.

I didn’t want that at all, fought poverty while in college and had my dream job at one point in my life and told myself I’ll never go back to that.

But I did. I’m still poor and now homeless again. No food. Nobody next to me. Alone, sick and cold.

Why some of us stay poor.

-it’s hard to bounce back from debt -you need money to make money from transportation, utilities, to do work -you put your needs first, which sometimes gets in the way of getting back up
