Some people say the most important thing about being rich is that it gives you the opportunity to give back or help the poor. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

It is indubitable that

is very important for helping others.

However

, I disagree with the It is indubitable that

is very important for helping others.

However

, I disagree with the given statement that it is the most essential thing in terms of a chance to help the needy. I believe that there are numerous ways of helping the underprivileged, and monetary aid is certainly not the best forms of aid. My

argument to support my viewpoint is that giving

to the poor would be a very shortsighted approach. It would satiate their needs for some time, but ultimately they have to be made capable of standing on their own. Providing education and job training is

Secondly

for even the basic necessities of life

. They have a point, but I still believe that the help in terms of personal effort provided by those who are, themselves, not so affluent is equally good. To sum up, if one is rich, he is in a better situation to help others who need

and all the things which

However

, I reiterate my view by saying that to help others, one need not be rich as help can be provided in many better ways than with
