In sequel to the afore:


••• Ignorance + Freedom = Chaos.

••• Ignorance + Health = Sickness = Death.

••• Ignorance + Poverty = Crime.

••• Ignorance + Power = Tyranny.

••• Ignorance + Religion = Terrorism.

••• Ignorance + Riches/Wealth = Corruption.

••• Ignorance + Talent = Poverty.



The list is endless...


Bottom line: Ignorance is deadly.
Ignorance is very deadly. More deadly than death

It's ignorance that kept them poor in the first place.


Besides, my post laid emphasis on "broke", not poor.

Living with no purpose.
There's money and there's purpose.
Quite different things if you'd agree with me.
You can have so much and still be empty,you wake up everyday with no meaning to your life.
Purpose is bigger than money.
nonsense, give me all ur money.

LACK OF FREEDOM means that your freedom is taken away, and you dont have to automatically be a death row immate to lose your freedom...

Bernie Maddof was NOT on death row, would you have change place with him if you were poor?
R kelly was sentenced to 20yrs in jail, would you change place with him if you were poor?
In Japan people are committing little crime so they can relax in prison because they feed them well.

It depends on where you were imprisoned. We have seen many cases in the West, even in Africa of prisoners who did not want to leave the prison after serving their time. If you spend some time in the prison of Scandanavian countries, Holland and Luxumburg, you may prefer to remain there. Especially if you are homeless and jobless.

Bros, poor men don't have peace of mind
they do ... The only poor people without peace of mind are those who torture themselves comparing themselves to those they envy without trying to put in the work to be like those they envy ... That is what gives a poor man heart ache ... But if you see a poor man in the village contented with eating his farm produce, bathing in the nearby stream, chilling in the moonlight by a camp fire with his family ... Even dangote can't enjoy the type of expiriences he has got . You might not understand what I am saying just like you don't understand Japanese but just believe it exists

Well, poverty is worse but, I feel there are more things worse than poverty. People living in north Korea might agree with me.
They will completely disagree with you

Infact they will be totally dismay at your level of exposure to come to this conclusion

That's how I was chatting with one 'illetrate' young manfrom Poland and he was surprise we have electric blenders in Africa

You will be surprised at the shitty propaganda the west is teaching their people and also spreading to their formal colony
Re: What Is Worse In Life Than Poverty? by pansophist(m): 1:00pm On Jun 23, 2023
Poverty is not worse bro. If you want to know what's worse, please stroll to a general hospital, and see that money is nothing. You will see all kinds of people there, both wealthy and poor, all lying helplessly in the same room. CEO and gatemen become equals.

Prayer warriors outside casting and biding, crying mothers and wives, all praying and hoping for one thing, which is the recovery of their loved ones. Their money at the moment becomes useless. These sick folks will give up their earthly wealth just to be normal.

Then you will understand what vanity means, and why health is wealth. In fact, if common teeth infection handles you, at that spot, you will realize that health is wealth. In fact, the only punishment I pray God should give my enemies is a toothache, especially that ache that seems like an old man is pounding yam inside your gum. grin

If you have never been sick to a point where nothing matters, you may not understand this. But I will rather be poor but healthy, than rich and sick.

LACK OF FREEDOM is worse than poverty!

so for example, people in jail for life... ask any poor person if they will change place with a death row inmate.
Hmmmm.... I got more wisdom today! 👍🏽👍🏽

thats what a poor person would say for the first few months, but thereafter you will still cry to be free.many homeless people in Europe have shelters they can go to but rather stay in the streets because they are FREE to do what they want there. many prisoners dont want to leave the prison after a long sentence because they have been MENTALLY BROKEN by the penitentiary system, and these people cant/wont live in the real world any longer, thus they'd rather stay in jail if they could. but remember, they give you free food and free TV, but lock you up like an animal for 23hs per day. having free food and free place to watch tv, while being locked up all day long, is NOT LIFE

freedom to do WHAT you want to do, WHENEVER you want to do it, is the biggest wealth in a person's life (after his/her health). dont get it twisted.

bro Japan jails are by far some of the worst in the world... but even the jails in Scandinavia (which are considered a walk in the park) would you willingly go and lose your freedom for 20yrs, just because they gave you free food and free TV?! no more women for 20yrs, no more fun for 20yrs, no more freedom to go wherever you want to go for 20yrs? no more freedom to eat what YOU want to eat for 20yrs? no more freedom to do what YOU want to do for 20yrs...would you?

freedom is not joy, u can be free but depressed ,weak and bruised.

yes, just like you can be rich and sick/depressed too (ask Steve Jobs and/or Paul Allen)... but believe me, after a man's health, FREEDOM TO DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO; WHEN YOU WANT TO DO IT is its biggest wealth!

1. certain things cant be 2. appropriately channelled ,knowledge can keep u poor.
@ bolded: Keywords

If "certain things" can't be "appropriately channelled", there are other better things that can be channelled appropriately.


Knowledge would help you decipher that.
Re: What Is Worse In Life Than Poverty? by Karlifate: 2:42pm On Jun 23, 2023
HellVictorinho6:
no, the knowledge to get rich also requires money to get.
Even if the money is placed in front of you, ignorance would keep you in darkness on getting it.


Side Note: "Ignorance" (especially in this context), means IGNORING THE KNOWLEDGE, not the absence of the knowledge itself.
