responsibility of the rich AND the poor

I've been researching the gap between the rich and poor. 
God says we have a responsibility to take care of the poor. 
God has lots to say about the rich having trouble seeing spiritual things. 

BUT

What's the poor's responsibility in living their lives? 
Do they just sit back and receive?
When do they become rich and begin to give to others?

Aren't we all rich in various areas of our lives?
Why does the word 'poverty' come with connotations of material things?

Our South African Sunday Newspaper had a wonderful article with statements from Desmond Tutu about the responsibility of us ALL! Add this to your own thoughts about how we're all to take responsibility to care of each other ...
