In the future the question will not be, "Are people credit-worthy", but rather, "Are banks people-worthy?"

Civilization has given us enormous successes: going to the moon, technology. But then this is the civilisation that took us to debt, environmental crisis, every single crisis. We need a civilization where we say goodbye to these things.

But we have created a society that does not allow opportunities for those people to take care of themselves because we have denied them those opportunities.

One day our grandchildren will go to museums to see what poverty was like.

They explained to me that the bank cannot lend money to poor people because these people are not creditworthy.

I'm on the faculty. I teach. And it's not easy for a poor person to enter the campus to track down the professor in the campus in a Bangladesh situation. They all will be stopped at the gate. You have no business in the university!

My vision for the future? ... a world completely free from poverty.
