Which Of These Contributes Most To Poverty? by Fiscus105(op): 3:50pm On Aug 04, 2025
I think number 6, (BLAMING OTHERS) contribute most to people failure, people would blame govt for everything going against them, even if their "dike" refuses to strong.

They also blame village people as well for their downfall, even wen it's obvious they are their own enemy.

TV all day...

By the time poverty finish with the person he won't even have tv to watch.

All of the rest suggests the person is at least doing something to survive even if it's limited effort.

All day TV is just home all day watching TV with no attempt at even going out or hustling!

Common among women, most especially those who have mentality "my man" would responsible for everything I need. After all, I'm a woman.

In Africa (Nigeria) the reasons are beyond the ones you highlighted. Add black tax and too many kids. We work so hard and spend the whole of our youth tending to everyone but ourselves. Before we know it 40yrs, then 50-55yrs. Energy dips and we start waiting to reap the fruit of our labour (kids).

Rinse and repeat...

____ Also over-religiousness.
The type that comes with a mental-condition where you think unknown people are after you.

Waiting for magic contributes the most in this part of the world. Reasons why you have plenty wealthy pastors here.

That is an incomplete list. Pls add the following:
5. Gambling
6. Womanizing
7. Clubbing and excessive drinking of alcohol
8. Marrying a non-virgin and not going for DNA test
What do I even know sef aside enlightening my fellow men nationwide with the good news

Most people don't watch TV all day. I mean even those who don't can still be caught up in this. Here's how it manifests: you watch TV/home videos/series till very late at night, maybe 2pm. The following morning, you either wake up late or too tired - so you don't achieve your objectives for that day. In fact, you put off some things till tomorrow. This goes on and you make less than you ought to be making.

All...the most is BLAMING OTHERS...AND COMFORT ZONE. Many are guilty of this
Re: Which Of These Contributes Most To Poverty? by Racoon(m): 1:05pm On Aug 19, 2025
Senseless and stupid religiosity of over spiritualizing what you ought to do to succeed.
Re: Which Of These Contributes Most To Poverty? by Godsonkemz(m): 1:05pm On Aug 19, 2025
PHCN will not even allow you to enjoy the TV all day in your comfort zone.

Even in marital failures, blaming others contribute significantly, couples who have much more kids, they can cater for, would start blaming govt and family member that are doing well with little children they can care for.

The government played a vital role in making it citizens poor

K
Every growing businesses are due to policy that favors them.

Nigeria government are the real cause of poverty in the country.

Imagine Wike in possession of money that would have helped millions of people out of poverty but is hidden in his personal account.


Imagine Tinubu with bullion vant containing billions of naira means for the ordinary citizens.

What baffles me is that most of you are Christians, some are even choristers in churches BUT in socio medias you guys will be talking like enemies of God and yet your praying for same God to bless you, how?

I guess you are leaving in 80's, what about phone, are people not watching films all days on phone? Ladies are guilty of this mostly.

Among the list, I think Waiting for magic is worst.
Re: Which Of These Contributes Most To Poverty? by Williamgoldman: 1:09pm On Aug 19, 2025
Womanizing which is not listed is number one way to poverty
Re: Which Of These Contributes Most To Poverty? by IsellSmartTvs: 1:10pm On Aug 19, 2025
No hobbies makes you watch Tv all day
No life passion makes you have no hobbies which still makes Tv ur go to
Comfort zone makes you have no Passion at all which makes you turn to 2 and 1
And then waiting for magic in your comfort zone makes you a finished man
In turn you blame others for your misfortunes
Re: Which Of These Contributes Most To Poverty? by Mindlog: 1:12pm On Aug 19, 2025
Blaming others is the low hanging fruit and the excuse for not achieving.
Re: Which Of These Contributes Most To Poverty? by tuoyoojo(m): 1:14pm On Aug 19, 2025
investing money in people or things that have no economic benefit or return, in my reasoning, is one of the surest means to stay poor

Better to be called stingy than broke
Re: Which Of These Contributes Most To Poverty? by koladata(m): 1:17pm On Aug 19, 2025
Blaming others, I've never seen anyone with this mentality that makes it in life...

The answer is not there

The answer is NO SKILL

No skill = No problem solved = No money
