In reaction, @its_abdullee; no dey romanticize poverty abeg. There’s no advantage of being poor. You can be rich and know the value of the small things.
@thedripmachine; This is poverty mentality talking. There is no advantage to being poor. I’d rather enter a store and purchase items without worrying about the price.
@Chvkwunonso; Advantage of being in jail, you don’t have to pay rent or food or utilities… Does this logic work for you too?
@ImoleDeji said; Sapa don dey do PR.
@Facelessgirl20; You’ll never escape poverty with that mentality
@CastleLarger; How does knowing the value of small things keep people in poverty? There are people who collect metal scrap on the daily but are millionaires. I want to understand your thinking in your reply.
@wendielazbaru; One of the disadvantages of being poor is delusion and madness. Imagine thinking there’s advantages to being poor
@mr_dzidzienyo; Poverty has no advantage. Let’s respect ourselves please!
@abhumanists; Only rich ppl would try to make poverty a ‘good or advantageous’ think. Riches are at the expense or exploitation of poor ppl.
@sharonkekere; Suffering no dey tire you people… advantages of being poor keh
