Definitely this is just a very simple one to answer base on my knowledge and permit to say we are all free to see things the way we want to see it and that why is more likely that I bring in an illustration to actually back my understanding on this.

I want to say in as much as getting what to eat is vital in life ,just as an adage do say here that

Once you always see what to eat,your worry reduces

The adage above might be true ,but to me it is not all life or what a person needs in life and I will be very technically by saying I don't go with the opinion that giving food to people to eat is the best way to help them,I must say food will finish take it or leave it ,but when you helped them financially it is of more benefits to them.

Aside that let me bring this to your notice that giving money to people as a means of helping them self is not all we need to do in life, causing just giving money to them without a means of establishing them to set up something of their own to me is not a good one.

Just like I do believe in one adage that says

You don't give people fish always,but teach them how to fish themselves.

The above adage too means giving money to people as a means of help might sounds so good,but money too will finish,you help people by letting them know how to become a boss of themselves and also becomes a giver too , by putting them through how they can get money too.

Let me say giving food or money to help people might be the best thing to some set of people take it or leave ,we all have right to our opinion and understanding,but to the the overall all to me is;

helping people to established their own Source of income is the best help ever base on my believe
