What is the best way to help poor people if you want to make maximum impact with limited capital and time ?

I thought about teach them how to make money online

I am having doubts if this will work because if someone really wants to earn, every information is available online for free. Or I am thinking wrong here.

Just because the information is online doesn't mean they will understand it.

If you are going to help them learn how to generate a living online, give them specific information that they can understand.

Let them ask questions, answer them, give them examples, and show them step by step, see how their mind works, and tailor ideas to their thought process.

Making money online is not plug and play, like it used to be; it takes a lot more imagination, and you have to bring that out of them.

Suppose there is a 60 year old woman whose husband has left her with no money. She does not understand English. Children do not want to support her so she has to do physical labor work. Can something be done for here so she can can earn money more comfortable way ? Or we should just ignore it because it is responsibility of government ?

Edit : May be I think, teaching them about investing some money from savings can help something. They surely do not know anything about FD, mutual funds or shares . I saw one startup related to this in my country. Do not know how this could be done at scale.

Ask them. Your intentions are admirable and I wish there were more people like you in the world. But it's so important for people in financial need to have a voice, too, and in being able to communicate where they feel they would be most able to make money.

It's not the responsibility of the government; it's our responsibility as individuals to step in and help.

I'm 100% sure that people who do not speak English can make money online, albeit the options are not as vast as if they did.

My guess is that with a cheap laptop, which someone can donate to her, she can probably copy and paste as a VA working for someone.

Offline, maybe she could cook a unique dish(s) and open a small stand, as that is not very taxing.

To be honest, that demographic is not one with which I am familiar, not the age, but the entirety of her circumstances, so I'm limited in ideas.

And her children need a good talking to in that scenario.

You don't need to teach them how to make money online. Instead, you can support them to start an offline business.

information isn’t really the issue, it’s execution
most people don’t need more ideas, they need one clear path and someone to guide them through it make money online is too broad, it just overwhelms people what actually works is picking one simple model and helping them get their first small win, even $50 makes it real

You can always start small.

I give to my local food bank a couple times a year

Know their capacity.. helping them could be like cursing them and what ever you give can be to their doom.. including education

2 . Be like Jesus, speak in parables and watch out for interest, no interest and pursuit shows lack of a will for change
3..how dearing does that fellow needs the help...of whatever model,
If they are not ready to .ake sacrifice to get it, you could as well forget it

Can you explain in short how can a ultra rich do this ? Like Bill Gates is one of the Ultra rich, he has already donated most of his income to others, so like many other multi-millionaires. But the problem is still there. So, what did they wrong ?

Short term: If you want a quick hit, teach them financial literacy skills like basic saving and an understanding of debt.
Long term: If you want to set them up for success, teach them patience and accountability.

Lot of people make bad decisions with money. People are too comfortable taking on debt on silly things that will have a ripple effect throughout their life.

Longer term, being patient and holding yourself accountable pays off huge. Too many people want a shortcut and magic bullet to working hard. It doesn't exist. They'll blame everyone else for why they live paycheck to paycheck, when they could improve their life by holding themselves accountable for why their life sucks.

I should reword this, most ultra rich.

The majority of the ultra rich don't care about donating a good portion of their funds. They are concerned about how to make more with their money.

You mean all ultra rich like 80-90% have to donate their wealth to solve this problem ?

Teaching them how to make money online is actually such a good idea because even if the info is out there, having someone guide them, break it down, and cheer them on makes a huge difference in actually getting it done and seeing real impac

 

[saferidge]

You are not spoon-feeding someone if you are helping them gain the skills or opportunity to stand on their own. Some people just need help to start. You can start by helping just one highly motivated person. Helping one person can ripple out to help an entire family and often, that person goes on to help others too. Best of luck!

Who exactly do you mean under poor people? People who don't want to learn and earn or who cant do that. The problem is that people don't always want you to help them for various reasons.
But I would definitely introduce financial literacy classes in schools.

Spend your time and money to start an NGO, then get some business sponsors to fund it. After that employ some good teachers that teach what you think poor people needs. With the right funding you could even pay everyone that takes part of your training a tiny reward to boost them if they complete and finish the education.

It works here like the business takes the majority of amount back in some form . Just to clean the money.
