Think about people who has nothing around them. What kind of fear might be for them? The person has no money,friend,family and hope. If people have nothing around them, I don't think they will be afraid of death because he or she has nothing to loose. I wonder what kind of fear do they have? In my personal opinion, they will have only desire inside of them to survive without thinking their fear. For example, we have friends, family, money and hopes to be successful in the future. For those reasons, we have some kind of fear inside of us. My fear is not to fail in any objects. From my family's high expectation from me, I'm afraid when I'm going to fail or not and I thought to myself. If I don't have anything, what will happen for me and what kind fear will come to me.
What do you guys think about the person has nothing to loose and no fear?

it the kind of fears that another people do fear of .. is like if people do fear of something or someone and everyone do agree on something or someone to be fear of .. but that kind of fears it is for limited time and it will be gone... but the fears that we have and believe in from inside it true ;.. that one is hard to get it out of our life . but it does go out of our life and we do not have that fear that we create it in our own and no one did make us to be afraid of

Last I checked, fear is human nature that allowed us to survive throughout time, so there's no way that anyone can "not have" fear. Everyone has a natural will to live, so they'll still fear for their death when something threatens them, especially predators. Though, not having friends or family or a purpose in life might cause one sort of fear to occur. Fear of not being known. Not leaving a trace in this world. That fear might spur on into ambition, causing them to strive for a greater purpose, and of course, gaining a fear of failure.
To put it simply, I believe a person who has nothing to lose or fear is impossible, unless they're already dead.

If a guy has nothing to lose because he has no friends, family nor money, then he should've probably feel loneliness. He should probably fear his loneliness.
When people have nothing to lose (which means they have no money, no family, and no friends), lots of people will try to survive a day longer.
Some people will give up and die. However, that means they are all fearing the loneliness and their lives. They're thinking it's better to die than living like this.
This is why we should take care of people who has nothing around them. That's why the government provide welfare to people and that's why there are donations.
Fear is human nature. People always fear of something.

I sometimes see people without fear. However, I question myself. Is it possible for a person to have absolute no fear? I personally believe "no". I think it is either the person does not have any fear or the person is just pretending as if he or she does not have any. Some people tend to act or behave in a certain way not to expose their internal or external weaknesses. This applies to me as well. I believe there should be at least something that people are afraid of. I try not to expose my fears or concerns because I know that I am not the only one who is going through these hardships. By handling my fear and weaknesses, it gives me an opportunity to build my mentality. Fear makes us stronger.

Just because a person is not rich or popular enough, it does not mean that he or she does not have any values, morals, beliefs, weaknesses, and even fears in life. You mentioned that you're afraid of not meeting your famiy's expectations and it is true that our surroundings and environment impose fear on us but it's much more complicated than that. Because sometimes, we create our own fears through the way that we look at the world and the way we see things.

People have their own fear. I think..for someone who has nothing with them, he/she has the fear of emptiness. I think that's the only thing they fear...? because they don't have anything to gain or loose, they will not be scared of anything with them. In Korean dramas, there is always a person who has nothing and they always say "I dont fear of anything cuz I have nothing with me." but actually they fear of emptiness.

Hunger is the most basic fear every people will have. This is because hunger is very closely relate to our survival. These days, most people are not fear about hunger because we are already enough and nothing to loose for food. I truly believe there are no person has nothing to loose and no fear because fear is basic emotion and people always want more than they actually have. In my opinion, I feel fear whenever I go to dark area.

I think that having nothing to loose doesn't necessarily mean that you have nothing to be afraid of anything. Having nothing to loose can mean a lot of different things such as having more to be afraid than usual. Having things to be afraid of means that we have to hide the things that we love and the things that we think are the most valuable. But if we have nothing that are important to us, than we won't be able to loose anything we love. But think about this, if you have nothing to loose and you are afraid, it must mean you are very afraid and afraid of yourself.

That's an interesting thought. Although I do think that your fear increases when you have more to lose, I don't think that's the only factor that causes fear. There are irrational fears that make up phobias that don't really have much reason. Also, there are reasons that we fear things that just come from human instinct to survive.

I think that people, no matter the situation, have some kind of fear within them, whether they admit to it or not. I agree with you that I also have fear of failing expectations from parents, as provably most students (especially in Korea) do. Of course, people in different situation than us, as you mentioned of people who have much less than we do, would not have the same fear as we do. But they would have other fears too, such as fear of death or fear of losing what little they have. I do think that they would have fear of death, because since they have nothing left but their lives, they must try to keep that and survive.

I think there is no way for people have no fear at all. When a person has nothing to lose, it seems like the person does not have any fear. But our human nature is survival. We do not want to die. So the fear of death still exists to people who have nothing to lose.

What I think is that someone does have fear of death, because through the person's life that all the information, knowledge, experience would like to at least share to others so that all the individual's work won't go to a waste, or at least benefit humanity to at least have a name heard on the person upon death to be known as good.

I wouldn't say a person who has nothing lose would feel no fear at all. Though they have no money, no family, no friend, and no hope, they are still human being and are naturally afraid of death. However, I do believe they would fear less than those who have many things to lose. People who have nothing to lose are not as bound to the world as people who have things to lose.

How can a person not have fear? Everybody is scared of something. As you mention, people who got nothing can fear death. They are always looking for food for survival. Even if you are rich or popular, you can be afraid of losing everything you got and be homeless. This is human nature to fear our surroundings. Even I fear tomorrow because I might die tomorrow. So I believe it is impossible to not have fear.
