Poverty is the root cause of all evils - says the materialists' theory. But is it true? I don't think so. If that would be the case, there would be no wealthy criminals. Poverty can be good or bad, depending on the person. The root cause of all evils is "unnecessary wishes" in my view because they lead people to do crimes.

But that's not our topic. Poverty is considered really bad in the society and people underestimate your skills and qualities just because you are poor. If you are poor, you'll be advised by people to work hard and spend extra time on duty to get some overtime bonus because they believe that money means success and therefore, the solution of all your problems.

Yes, it's a fact that money is the solution for most problems but not "all". Is money the primary goal of your life? What is the advantage if you're dying with a much larger house than your grandpa had? What's the point if you're dying with large bank balance than your father had? Well, I am not denying the importance of money. Undoubtedly, money "if earned honestly and legally" actually means success, but how much? that's the point. For some people, being rich is actually good because they are givers and share their happiness with others and for some people, being poor is much better than rich because of ever-increasing "unnecessary wishes".

If you are poor, you should learn to embrace it. You might be thinking, how can you embrace poverty? In this article, I will share the reasons why you should embrace poverty but at the same time, work for your long-term success too. Don't feel depressed just because you are poor. After darkness comes the light.

1 - You have nothing to lose:
Rich people worry a lot about their bank balance, high income-tax rate, and possible robberies because of their money. On the other hand, you are poor and everyone knows that. You have nothing to lose and the only chances are, your financial situation will improve but it won't go worst hopefully. There won't be income-tax issues on you. All the thieves of your area know that you are poor, so you would possibly not be the next target for them.

There is a lot to lose for rich people. Even 1% loss out of 100 million dollars will make them yell and cry. If you are earning like $500 a month, then there is a room for an increase in your salary. So, be happy and work for the future.

2 - Fewer issues of health as compared to rich people:
Money often leads to evil such as drugs and smoking that surely affects your health. Rich people like to enjoy the night at bars, drink the wine and change the girlfriend every night. Being poor, you will not have extra money to spend on drugs and therefore, you'll be forced by nature and that will result in fewer health problems.

Smoking and drugs are not everything. Look at another aspect, rich people have more money and therefore, they can eat a lot and fall into health issues. On the other hand, you eat less because of your poverty. Your weight will stay in limit and there won't be a need to do dieting. You will remain healthy without all of these.

3 - Easy to choose the food for dinner:
Rich people spend time choosing the food they would like to eat at dinner which results in the waste of time. Since time is money, you can save your time because your list of food is limited and you can choose anything from that small list and spend the rest of your time either at extra work or with your family.

There are many other reasons such as your moral behavior. Being poor, you know how difficult the life can be at times and therefore, you'll take care of poor people. I've noticed through social experiments that rich people are usually proud of their status and they don't feel the pain of a poor. I watched an experiment on Youtube where a guy with crutch drops his key (social experiment) and request the rich people to pick and hand him that key. 80% of them refused to do so. But it shows that there are some people who are rich but at the same time, they are great enough and understands the pain of poor people. Thumbs up for such people!
