Funny how this relates to the intro of the movie Up. They keep their extra money in a jar so that one day they may travel but each time it's nearly full, there's a huge setback that happens that force them to empty the jar. And by the end of the introduction, their entire life has passed by and they never were able to travel.
The poverty trap does not just apply to underdeveloped nations. It is a major factor of why even in America the poor stay poor. No matter how wise your financial decisions, if your income only rises to 95 - 105% of survival costs, you cannot build the savings to overcome a setback.
I agree. Because civilization is a Team Effort. America has this problem, because Egoism is more prominent here. I mean: Why fight over a Watering Hole? When you can get some Engineers together. And build and Aquaduct. For the whole Community.
And of course, with rare exceptions, poverty leads to degraded physical and mental health which, in turn, makes it harder to escape poverty. This was a factor in my family (decades before I was born). When my father had been a kid in the 1920's, his family were poor immigrants, but they were getting by, until my father's father suffered a crippling injury on the job that prevented him from working. This was in the era that Republicans call the "good old days" when there were littler or no government health and welfare programs. As a result, my father had to start working full time as a teenager (while completing high school) and a college education was out of the question. It took him decades of hard work to climb out of poverty to a lower-middle-class life. In late middle-age he had three heart-attacks, the last of which killed him -- possible due to the stress of his life. TAX THE RICH AND HELP THE POOR.
So true. Mental health screws you up even if you can physically do a job...also if you are on a assistance and can work, what you make is subtracted from state or government money, and you aren't allowed to have more than a specific amount of money, they go through every expense. I get it's to detect fraud but if it's a temporary issue it is hard to get out of.
You mentioned about "money trap" - where one is unable to earn enough for either basic needs (e.g. food, shelter), or for unexpected events like disease / job loss / repairs, which do happen from time to time for everyone. What is even worse when it comes to poverty is "mind trap": loss of self-esteem or feeling that one's actions do matter, addictions and aggression as means of dealing with that, and (in countries with good welfare systems) avoiding employment because as soon as a poor person gets work (usually not paid well), they lose some or all of the welfare benefits, so it pays off more to be a lifetime welfare system client.
I moved out of a developing country into a developed one. However, for the first 6 years I was stuck in a poverty trap. What I learned from my 7th year onward made me realise that being frugal and investing the extra money wisely would make me slightly richer than most people as long as I have a stable job, even if this was back in the developing country. Now I have "friends" contacting me out of the blue, expecting me to hand out free money in exchange for their company. I'd rather live alone in a cabin somewhere not worrying about my next meal than being around the wrong type of people.
So did you have a steady job for those 7 years? What did you do to invest the money? Would you say that your escape from the poverty trap was just a slow gradual accumulation of wealth from working over a period of years?
In the US, there is also a benefits trap or benefits cliff. If you earn very little, you qualify for various types of aid, but as you earn more, these are all taken away. If a single person earns $12,000 a year, they can get free health insurance, food assistance, housing assistance, help with heating costs (LIHEAP), etc. If they work hard and begin earning $20,000 a year, all those benefits go away, and they will likely find themselves no better off (or maybe worse off) than they were earning $12,000.
I like it, but the poverty trap argument is so obvious when applied to underdeveloped nations. Would have been more interesting to hear how the homeless guy in America would fare.
@@sparcx86channel42 That's NOT it. There are many excellent economics treatises on poverty in the US and why it's counterproductive to compare America's poor with developing nations' poor.
This is also a problem in the US. I hate that people give food or coupons to the poor here instead of money and permenant housing and leave them alone. There's also some individuals who entrap people trying to get out of homelessness by "helping" them with food and resources, and then guilt and shame them to do whatever service they want. I hate that, it steals that person's dignity and keeps them in a bind.😡

It is harder to make it when you grow up poor, but it can be done, it depends on what you are willing to sacrifice and how hard you are willing to work.
Not necessarily, see latinamerica for example. México is one of the countries that works the most. The avarage mexican works harder and more hours than the average American, but they earn almost 10 times less.
Social Class is based on what Resources and Conveniences you have access to. (Internet, Showers, AC, Running water, Take-out, Health Care, Transportation, etc.) When you don't have adequate income for these things: The only alternative is to actually own something. But that also costs money. So, that's how you get this cycle. (Unless you are able to get it via Community Resources. For Low-Income people, it makes their life a whole lot easier. And it helps in climbing up the Social Class level.) When you live in a culture that's more "Every Man for Himself": You get a lot higher of a Poverty Rate. And more Long-term problems.

The example of the woman with the chickens is a great example. The poverty trap is not having enough money to save for emergencies and neither enough to make any investment. So it becomes a cycle.

I reject the notion that poverty is a "trap" that people can't get out of, for several reasons. First is the fact that the majority of people in the poverty income level don't stay there for long. The poor are simply people at a certain point in their lives. One could be below the poverty line because she has graduated from college and got her first job, and is living on her own for the first time. One could be "poor" because he's trying to start a business, or because he just got divorced. Most of those who live under the poverty line go on to get better jobs, or work two jobs, and make more money as time goes by. They move out of that category. Of course, a minority of people stay, because they don't do anything different. If my income isn't keeping up with inflation, I need to do something to overcome that trend, rather than staying in the same situation and feeling trapped. Three-quarters of American workers who were in the bottom 20 percent in income in 1975 were also in the top 40 percent at some point over the next 16 years. As we get older, we gain experience and skills. We get married and get promoted. The second reason I reject this characterization that there's nothing the poor can do about being poor (which is what we're saying when we say poverty is a "trap") is that I myself was poor. For much of my childhood into my 20s, I was poor. But I was ambitious. I worked 3 jobs at one point; a full-time job as an administrative assistant, a waitress a couple of nights a week, and a retail clerk on weekends. I cut expenses, saved my money, and owned a house by the time I was 35. Many of the people I grew up with -- who lived in the same foster home, went to the same inner-city schools, and lived in the same low-rent neighborhoods as me -- have pulled themselves into a middle-class, upper middle-class, or upper-class lifestyle. People who say that it's impossible to save money are not committed to saving money. It is possible. Millions of people at every income level do it successfully every year. There will always be people who go through mental gymnastics to excuse their own laziness, lack of vision, or lack of financial self-control. They will say they can't get a break, that the world is against them, that inflation is keeping them poor, or whatever. These are the same people who eat out at restaurants more than three times a week, have a late-model cell phone, do not share their living space with any other families, spend hours a day on social media or video games, and have enough disposable income to have a pet. Don't like being poor? Do something about it. Nothing changes if nothing changes. And when we don't change, that's a trap of our own creation.
I feel like a solution to poverty trap is also being an ethical opportunist not necessarily working hard but providing creative solutions to problems people are willing to pay for
Grace in Tanzania 🇹🇿 will never be in debt running into hundreds of thousands . There’s no poverty in Africa it’s all about mismanagement and bad governance.
Poverty will end when Capitalism isn't a thing. A person shouldn't own more than somebody else because that person was born with money. A person should be rewarded for being kind and compassionate. Education and housing are free. The big houses and the luxuries go to the most compassionate and kind people. Money has no merit to it. A person shouldn't be rewarded with heaps of money just because that person came up with an idea that people like. People a literally giving that person power, with absolutely not checking the person's merit first. Capitalism needs to end for humans to be able to share. The world is based on greed. One count has an abundance of food, and that country has entertainment around the abundance of food, while other countries have little food. Through Intelligent Quantum Computing, each country will have its own Super Intelligence, monitory and share resources with other Countries' Super Intelligent Computers. Humans cannot be trusted with any kind of power. The attraction to a person that has plentiful of material, must end. Greed is to appear attractive.
benefits to work. you will receive benefits for life then pay 70 per cent income tax when you get a job until you are better off in the standard current system then you swap to it
I believe that there’s only two things that can keep in poverty. Having children before the age of 25, and not taking care of your physical and mental health. These two things will cripple your ability to build any wealth.
Imagine being betrayed by a woman and being from the lower middle class ? Having Child support and being laid off from your job while out for a operation ! , It doesn't take that much to put you in the ghetto and eventually lead you to become homeless while waiting for public housing a very long time ! . The states housing Authorities have all kinds of traps set up to deny men ! . I will wait until Judgement Day if that is what it takes to get an apartment from The Tennessee housing authority !

Amen, I think lots of people who get kicked out of their family home are thrown into the poverty trap.

Both these simplistic arguments have already been debunked by multiple academic and government studies.
