PS getting an education & job not always easy or even possible, some answers are a bit crass in my view,

I'm going on holiday for a fortnight. I'll hope to keep in touch when I get back.
a tip: ask someone on yahoo answers how to build your points up so you can ask more questions.
cheers and all the very best.
may God bless you richly and your family

What a crazy and huge burden to place on someone's shoulders.
But poverty is as poverty does. A person can be rich in money and poor in spending it wisely. The Bible, Proverbs especially, has lots of words on the wise man who spends his money wisely and the fool who spends his money foolishly.
The burden should not be on your shoulders alone. Your whole father's family needs to shoulder the burden as well.
The first thing you can do is eliminate filth in your life. This means both physical dirt and moral dirt. You need to clean out your heart of hate, of dishonesty, of immoral desires, and greed, and replace it with moral cleanliness, fair play, respect for others and love for your family. If you can gain those things, you will be able to hold your head up and look another squarely in the eye when doing any job or task, be it cleaning toilets or making high dollar stock market transactions.
The greatest wealth is contentment with a little. So many people here in America had so little, but they knew how to take care of themselves and learned how to make it or grow it or prepare it themselves. Learn how to sew, to repair torn clothes, to clean soiled garments, learn how to reuse items instead of using them once and throwing away, learn how to repair broken machines, learn how to use tools to repair and keep working machines in good working order, learn how to prepare and store food for today and for the future.
Pulling up out of poverty means knowing what to do with what you've got, whether it be some plastic tables that need to be stripped of old paint, sanded, and repainted so they can be sold at a higher price at the next yard sale, or pulling bags of clothes thrown away in the dumpster, washing, and cleaning them, and then wearing them as if they were purchased in the store, or collecting all the aluminum cans, plastic and glass bottles, and bits of copper wire for recycling money to pay for weekly gas in the truck. It's what you do with every day that will pull you out of poverty, and your family needs to learn to do it for themselves as well. Then you will all be free.
Good luck.

either earn some money or take it from others less intelligent than yourself. you must locate some fish, some suckers. for sure, the best things in life are not always free. like you, i despise poverty.

get some money... I find that it is the best cure for poverty, and avoid any job connectd to art, because you will only be rich after your death.

it totally depends upon your money and educational and employment and credit situation

also consider what you enjoy doing

if youare going to have to spend your life "money getting" try to enjoy at least half of what you have to do

first, go somewhere that has a reasonable rate of pay, then do college and/or working somewhere

Invest.

Save money when possible.

Don't buy frivolous items, luxury good, waste money on meals out.
