Normally when we look at poverty, we associate it with people being jobless, homeless and all the negative aspects that follow. Poverty is when a person does not have enough to make ends met for his family to live by on. Poverty is the result of people who could not finish school, they either dropouts or they had limited or poor education.

This is where we get our domestic workers, shop assistants, petrol attendents generally all the people who are willing to work for a basic wage just to be able to out meals for their families. We need such people in order to keep our houses clean even though they are unequal to other people, we need them to keep the balance in the society.

Small business start to emerge and even recyclers, these people indirectly keep our communities clean by picking up all the waste and turning them into money. These are the people who are willing to get their hands dirty at a small price to play. Poverty allow people to be more creative and think out of the box, they do not depend only  on one source of income. Some will work on themselves that could come in handy and help them earn money through it.
