Answer 2

Being poor means you lack materials thing and it limits your privilege. It can also affect your self-esteem; but not all poor people are prone to be this way. If "love" is present; it will satisfy all needs. Remember love conquers all; love gives hope and encouragement. Take for instance, Oprah Winfrey, despite of her circumstances (being poor and was molested) with love and conviction from her dad; she’s able to achieve the impossible.
