You could right and I could be wrong - or maybe it's somewhere in the
middle.  But I just don't see it.  I'm sure if we examined her case we
could say that when she was 19 she should of .... blah, and that
would've prevented things.

What this comes back to, for me, is the concept of Luck.

There is such a thing as Luck, but if you're not prepared for an
opportunity when it comes by then that's not bad luck, it's poor
planning.

In the same way, if you're living close to "the line" and some bad
luck comes your way (a drunk driver hits you) then, sure, bummer, but
should you have been living so close to the line anyway?

Sam once said if he didn't save and if that meant that, due to some
bad luck, he became poor again he'd be fine with that.  Would he?  Or
would he say the government owed him something?  What would others
say?

There was a Katrina refugee who moved to the middle of Florida because
she didn't want to face a Hurricane again.  The tornado just wiped her
out again.  Bad luck.  But she was prepared, she has insurance.
She'll be ok.

So you still haven't shown me someone who's willing to work, not
handicapped, but is spontaneously poor none of their own doing.
