Sleepers at the wheel say I think poverty to a large extent is also a state of mind. You take somebody who has the right mindset, you can take everything from them and put them on the street, and I guarantee you, in a little while, they'll be right back up there. And you take somebody with the wrong mindset, you could give them everything in the world – they'll work their way back down to the bottom. Ben Carson © 2017 Kwiple.com
