The problem of poverty is something serious, because little by little people lose the chance to get out of it, scientists suggest.
According to what was found, a person with less financial conditions tends to have a reasonable momentary drop in their IQ, approximately 13 points. Which is equivalent to spending a sleepless night, studies point out.
