Why it's expensive to be poor

The notion however that your future path is set because of your past choices is part of the myth that the poor need to have destroyed through education. Tomorrow is about what you do tomorrow, not about what you did yesterday.

Only if you don't believe in causality.

Making forward progress in the future has little to do with your current starting point.

The time to achieve a desired end-point may vary, but until you've instilled day-to-day habits, the end goal is not achievable.
