RE: Focus on your own blog and success. Thought on Steem distribution.
The same can be said about the real world, as well.
If all of the world's money was distributed equally today, tomorrow we'd be in the same situation as prior to the redistribution.
Simply because money managing is a skill, which some have, while others don't.
There was a show in the UK a while back where they would give money to poor people, so they can accomplish their dreams.
A poor single mom of three or something was given tens of thousands of dollars, and she had spent it all in a month or so.
No conspiracy, no coercing, no nothing was needed for the poor to willingly redistribute her own money back to the wealthy.
She bought stuff like make up, hair jobs, dresses, and so on.
There's a lesson there.
Interesting. Same happened here in the Netherlands with people winning the lottery. Such a waste of opportunity.
I agree somewhat. Not all people without money are bad money managers but it usually does ring true. Its a fact and statistic that you never really exceed higher than what you grew up around. Its because the ideals and beliefs are so engrained no one seeks to set the bar higher and they fall back on what they know. Not sure if you've read any of Rob Kiyosaki but I think you'd agree.
