Remember Horst, poverty is poverty of purpose, not poverty of cash. Those without purpose live in poverty. If you've no money, then grab a broom and sweep the sidewalk, grab a wash basin and on your knees, scrub the floor. Do this and you've purpose, have eliminated poverty in your life. Sit on the couch and brood, you've no purpose and are living in poverty, no matter how much money you have.
