Poverty as a Nigerian People's Ideology.

COPIED:

Poverty is an ideology driven by specific ideas and habits that tilt people towards lack. Below are seven reasons people are poor:

1. Getting married even when you don’t have a job or business

2. Having children anyhow because they are "God’s gifts", and "God will provide"

3. Going to church, or mosque, not for the love of God, but in search of ‘miracle’ money

4. Praying for money and mistaking laziness for faith

5. Giving your many children limited education

6. Teaching your children to hate their wealthy relatives for not helping you to raise them

7. Waiting for your poorly-raised kids to grow and repeat the poverty cycle by pressuring each of them to get married even when they have no job or business

Generational curses don't cause poverty. What creates poverty is generational bad habits.
