Answer to Question 1

Culture of poverty is a set of values that emphasizes living for the moment rather than thrift, investment in the future, or hard work.

Answer to Question 2

The size of the incentives is related to the importance of the task, the pleasantness of the task, and the scarcity of the talent and ability necessary to perform the task.
