The question pre-supposes many things like
1. God is concerned only with human species on earth and no other species
2. Only problems of humans are worth discussing and resolving and there is no need to talk and think of other species problems .
3. Prosperity is grand panacea of all ills .
4. Prosperous people are full of love and are devoid of greed and fear. Conversely poor people are unable/incapable to experience joy of pure love.
Obviously the premises of the question do not withstand scrutiny of God and in all probability the question too does not hold water .
My understanding of all the grief and suffering in the world is to provide people with infinite suspense / thrill/ mystery / excitement / joy /challenge to the seekers . Suffering and grief are happiness delayed and NOT denied .
God is infinite for the right asking and behaves very much stone-like-finite , limited and even unconscious if we do not meet His criteria.
