One of the things that poverty normally does to us is lower our self-esteem because we are trying to survive. We find it difficult to express ourselves. Sometimes we might be angry the way people treat us, but we find it difficult to express ourselves. This is because we don’t want to offend them, there is a constant thought in our head that our help can come from anybody so even if somebody offends us it’s always difficult for us to express ourselves, instead would be the one to beg the person.
The sense of loneliness and the fear of missing out on opportunities makes people tolerate a lot of things when they are broke and this makes them look like fools or somebody who can take anything, but in reality is just fear of losing that person. We are mostly scared of the people that are helping us and when they do something terrible to us we won't be able to talk. We know without them it is almost impossible for us to stay alone, but things change when we start having access to freedom.
The power of freedom
A lot of people change when they start having access to power or money and this is because power or morning give them access to stability and immediately people have that stability and they realize they have nothing more to do with you. They now have the power to express themselves, they are not making decisions based on fear or based on what they are getting from you. They are now deciding for themselves and that is why people say money, changes people.
We can all agree that money gives you the power and the ability for you to express yourself because this is where people have problems with rich people. Money or power gives you abilities to express yourself and the constant fear or sense of loneliness will disappear. Everything you are tolerating before when you don’t have money, you can now reject it because you are now comfortable. You have access to money and power your perspective will change.
The changes are shocking
 Your changing behavior will become shocking to some people because they’ve been treating you badly and have been getting away with it just because they know that you have nowhere to go and you are helpless. When you start having money and start rejecting those behaviors and you now dare to be standing for yourself People will say you’ve changed because of money but in actual sense, you have been in pain right from the start, but you can’t talk simply because you don’t have what it takes to.
Money doesn’t change people. It gave them the ability to express themselves and some of these expressions you must have seen in them even when they didn’t have money, but most times it is difficult to express yourself when you don’t have money, but with money, you have the power to do what you want and to live the life you want
