Investment divide worse than digital divide? - elte - Mar 16, 2016
There is a common term describing the disadvantaged's relationship with Internet connectivity denoted by a general lack of Internet access. A similar situation exists with regard to investing money. The wherewithal to invest money and be able to grow it like well-off people is diminished to practically zero for the poor and less-abled. This includes things like not having personal transportation to handle business matters with tax preparers and accountants, as well as having enough income to pay for such services once one would be able to reach physical places where they are supplied, not to mention the living arrangements needed to support personal infrastructure that enables dealing with a lot of paperwork, including storage.
