Why does the poor stay poor?

If you were to live in a bad, nonfunctional, cramped, or even the streets, your mindset would become a fixed mindset.

Explanation:

Fixed Mindset: “In a fixed mindset, people believe their basic qualities, like their intelligence or talent, are simply fixed traits. They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of developing them.

Growth Mindset: “In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment.”

If you have bad living conditions or a bad paying job you may mostly think bad thoughts about your life. When you start thinking bad thoughts your mindset and mood becomes weary and you would most likely want to give up all the time.
