These people may be economically poor, but you’re poor of mind. As in judgmental and narrow minded. That’s far more poor than some of those people will ever be. | |||

"What is the most important to you? If you had the choice between a nice home or a nice car what would you choose? Tom had to go to a part of town last night which is predominantly occupied by the poor people yet he was surprised that some of the cars outside these rabbit hutch like houses were pretty tasty. So what would you choose,? A nice house or a nice car. So many people leasing cars these days. What's going on here guys? " Image is very important to a lot of people - car, cloths is what most people see. You could live in an old tin shack but nobody would know unless they visited. Cars, clothes, jewellery etc is what most people see you in and judge you. Like any social media and real life people want to be seen a certain light and not in true light | |||

"Never judge The car could be on finance or a company car The house could be where they want to be it will be finance. And probably why they can't afford a house. A house can last generations a car not so much. There are reasons the poor are poor What are the reasons? " In my experience people are poor because they are not rich. That sounds stupid but it is an important distinction. So how do you go from poor to rich? Most people who are no longer poor are no longer poor because they own things that appreciate in value or generate them an income without them having to spend time on it. In modern times that means shares. They have probably set up a company that has done well and so own shares in that. If you are working (even with a high salary) then you are limited in how much wealth you can create by the hours you have available. Poor people work for others. Rich people have others working for them. | |||

Occupied by poor people
Rabbit hutch like houses
These people may be economically poor, but you’re poor of mind. As in judgmental and narrow minded. That’s far more poor than some of those people will ever be. "I whole heartedly concur with you Bella. I live in what could be described as a "Rabbit Hutch" But it's my rabbit hutch and I love it. I worked hard for it and due to divorce I've probably paid for it twice. I love the area its in and it has an amazing community around. internally it's my little Palace. Externally it's functional. No one would think of breaking in to it.. Many of us choose to live in houses like mine and we're proud of them. As for cars.. I never buy new. I don't see the point. As long as its functional and reliable and comfortable, it'll do for me. I've got better things to spend my money on. No, I'm not poor. No, I'm not rich. Yes, I'm happy Please choose your words wisely next time | |||

Someone implied that the difference between a car and a house was that cars cost money and houses make money. I added that another more significant difference was the cost of a house, which makes them unattainable for many. | |||

"Damn those poor people. With cars. And other luzlxury items like flatscreen tellies and phones. Amazing what you can get on benefits.You can get a holiday to Cuba if you don't pay the over £4k gas and electricity bill you have run up." We both had experience on benefits For the Mr, it was just due to being made redundant, took him about 6 months to find another suitable job so he claimed JSA for about 4 months (he had to wait till he was 18). For me, I was on IS as a single parent after a relationship breakdown, 2 children aged 2&4, not many bills tbh because we had to live in a couple of different shelters. So we had money "disposable" cash I suppose you could say... damn, that holiday to Cuba would have been nice! | |||

M"The implication was there, so seems a bit unnecessary. Tories have been in power for over 13 years. If there's an increase in poverty in that time then wouldn't it be accurate to suggest that government decisions play a part? | |||

"Put my money in property and drive a second hand car " In reality, we all drive 2nd hand cars. The only people to drive brand new cars are the ones who deliver them to the dealerships. | |||

" ... In reality, we all drive 2nd hand cars. The only people to drive brand new cars are the ones who deliver them to the dealerships." .. the short distance from the transporter to the parking lot round the back. I was going to add the time wasting fantasists who take them for test drives but the dealers aren't stupid, they only have a few for that purpose so they don't all get farted into and slobbered over.. | |||

"Never judge The car could be on finance or a company car The house could be where they want to be it will be finance. And probably why they can't afford a house. A house can last generations a car not so much. There are reasons the poor are poor What are the reasons? In my experience people are poor because they are not rich. That sounds stupid but it is an important distinction. So how do you go from poor to rich? Most people who are no longer poor are no longer poor because they own things that appreciate in value or generate them an income without them having to spend time on it. In modern times that means shares. They have probably set up a company that has done well and so own shares in that. If you are working (even with a high salary) then you are limited in how much wealth you can create by the hours you have available. Poor people work for others. Rich people have others working for them. " The rich get richer, the poor get poorer. Because the system is gamed that way. | |||

"It must be said your choice of words are
Occupied by poor people
Rabbit hutch like houses
These people may be economically poor, but you’re poor of mind. As in judgmental and narrow minded. That’s far more poor than some of those people will ever be.
We might not agree with Tom but you cannot dispute he is one of the best wordsmiths on the forums. His choice of words is always spot on if he wants to get a reaction and he usually succeeds. That is a skill to be applauded." | |||
