Knowledge is a key form of privilege, as are social access, race, and money. How you spend your time determines your knowledge base to a large extent.

LIFE IN POVERTY
IN GROUPS:1. Think of an adult in generational
poverty.2. Imagine that you followed that person
for a year, observing what happened and how he/she spent his/her time.
3. Write your observations in the circle so that the circle represents an average day in the life of this person.

“Does a person have a sense of being linked to the mainstream of society, of being in the dominant subculture, of being in accord with society’s values?”“Can a person perceive society’s messages as information, rather than as noise? In this regard, the poor education that typically accompanies poverty biases toward the latter.” “Does a person have the resources to carry out plans?”“Does a person get meaningful feedback from society—do their messages make a difference?”
IT’S DUE TO SOCIAL COHERENCE

Mental Model for Wealth
Developed by Ruby Payne
This applies to the wealthiest 1% of households in the United States—those with a net worth of $7.8 million or more.

HIDDEN RULES OF WEALTHHere are additional hidden rules that operate in wealth.
1. It’s not okay not to be perfect. That would seldom be articulated, but it is rigidly followed.
2. If you don’t have connections or wealth, then you may be respected for your expertise.
3. Social exclusion is the weapon of choice; you simply aren’t invited.4. Time is more important than money (particularly true in new money).5. Details are very important. One word in a legal document can transfer
assets. Details are critical to success.6. A paper protocol exists (including the paper itself) for invitations, responses,
and thank yous.7. A key role of a parent in wealth is to ensure that the child has access to the
appropriate connections and schooling. 8. Personal concerns of an emotional nature are not openly shared in a social
setting but rather with the appropriately paid, degreed professional.9. Humor is most often about social faux pas. 10. Indiscretion (disclosing information gained through social connections) to
media or others not in the social set is rarely forgiven.

MENTAL MODEL OFGENERATIONAL POVERTY
§ It is a description of the concrete experience. § It is an abstract representation of poverty.§ It shows part to whole.§ It depicts the relative importance and
interlocking nature of the elements.§ It is a depiction of the trap: no future story,
no choice, no power.
