What do the people really need?

In that animated classic “Aladdin” starring Robin Williams as the genie, Aladdin was oft referred to as a “street rat” by the locals.  It was a derogatory term of course, one that I could never imagine anyone actually using to describe another human being.
When I relocated to a developing part of the world where the street are often teeming with beggars of all shapes and sizes I was the typical American tourist type.  Often giving coins to the kids and sometimes to the adults as well.  The beggars knew I had money in my pocket and would do their best to pull on my heartstrings until I gave them something.
In the movie “Slumdog millionaire” we see children intentionally blinded by their overlords, as it seems that blind beggars can collect more than those with functioning body parts.  It seemed difficult to imagine that such things really happened but I am now convinced that such activity is likely far more common in numerous places around the world than I had thought possible.
I have seen entire families living under a cardboard box along a  sea wall. Having no shower or toilet at hand, the defecate over the wall, into the sea or along the shore.  I look at the people there and know that they have no hope whatsoever of ever getting off that wall.  Like blinded kids in Slumdog millionaire, their options are desperately few, despite their working eyes.
To reference a 3rd movie/TV show, season 1 of “Fargo” featured a story of a man who gave everything he had, including ultimately his life, to help the poor.  Yet, despite his death, the problems of the world had not changed one iota.
I tell you all this to lay the groundwork for a realization I came to along the way.  No amount of money can help this situation.  When I see beggars on the streets of Southeast Asia, I still give them change from time to time, but I am under no illusions that it makes a difference.  If I gave these beggars a small fortune they would nevertheless be back in the exact same situation the next day, or the day after that.  WHY?
Because what they desperately need is not money.  They need to be educated.  They need to know what to do.  They need to know how to earn money in a sustainable manner;  how to generate a cash flow.  They need to see themselves as other see them and they need to know they are better than that.
I suppose to a far less obvious degree we are all a bit like that.  The world in general, and the poor in particular, is starved for knowledge, education and training.  One of my dreams is to foster a renaissance of sorts, creating a community of like-minded men and women who understand how markets work and collectively work together to create wealth and opportunity.  To build a community of wildly successful men and women working together to help each other, while at the same time teaching other people how to escape the clutches of mediocrity.
When I launch my educational site in the near future, it won’t be a trading tips site per se, focused upon such as: “buy ETH at xx and sell at XX.”   Of course, such discussions will routinely happen.  My goal is to be able to teach 400 people everything I know, and have those 400 people then create a community of traders working together with each other to not just create fortunes, but change destinies.  I think it was Napoleon Hill, the author of “Think and Grow Rich” who suggested that one of the secrets of success is to create a “group mind”. A team of like-minded men and women who get together and support each other in their quest for excellence.
