Part of it is how people are raised. I know families that have three generations scraping by and most on some sort of handout program or more than one.
If you flock with turkeys it makes it harder to soar like an eagle.
It seems most of the poor I know have little common sense. I see many who smoke $7 a pack cigarettes, dope, and drink excessively. All are a waste of money they do not have. They will eat out when thy can eat at home for 1/4 the cost and not waste money on gas to get to the fast food place.
Why work when they can survive on food banks and government handouts is how they think.
Quite many rich people are very lucky with theyr parent's, not to much hard work.A quote from Samuel Pepys:
