How does the neighborhood one calls home affect a poor person's life chances? how does the study "moving to opportunity" add to
kumpel [21]

This neighborhood we call home affects poor people´s life because it changes the point of view of a poor person about what is home for him or her. This person realized that there are another ways to live in this world and that some of them are really difficult for him or her to achieve. This can influence him or her in different ways like, it can motivate him or her to work harder and try his or her best so as to modify his meaning of home and get another one that may be better for him or her. It can also not motivate him or her and make this person feel like he or she has no way to get to our lifestyle and make her or him stalledwhere they are.

The study "Moving to Opportunity" adds to our understanding of poverty that we have a different meaning of poverty than other people. For example for some people being poor is not to get to pay the bills, or have no home or not being ableto buy food for their family. But for other people being poor is not being able to afford a holidays trip, or not buying the newest car or not getting the newest cellphone. Every person lives a different reality and has different ways to get to their objectives, but what we need to know is that sometimes we get worried about not getting the last cellphone or the last house or car on the market while some people are worried about how the are going to get a home for their family and how are they going to bring food to their tables. The luxuries and the material things are not always the most important in our life and we have to appreciate what we have and take care of it.
