Why are some people destined to be poor all their lives?

Because these people can't bear hardships, refuse to study hard and refuse to improve themselves! As far as I know, there is a "law of conservation of suffering" in this world: suffering is the basic feature of life, and the total amount of suffering in everyone's life is unchanged. It won't just disappear, and it won't happen for no reason. It will only move from one stage to another, or from one form to another, so you can only experience poverty if you can't suffer.

As for getting to the bottom of this problem, then I think it may be because most of the sufferings in life can be repeated, but people's adaptability is very strong. If you continue to experience the same suffering for a long time, the painful experience and effect will gradually weaken, and people will enter a habitual helpless state. Although this state is not particularly comfortable, it will not be particularly uncomfortable over time. But the pain of learning is non-repetitive. Learning is a process of broadening cognitive boundaries, which requires you to actively think and learn. The content of learning is often gradual, unlike the pain of life, so you can't enter a state of numbness, but you need to constantly face new knowledge and learning goals.
