It means that when you give something to a person one time only that will only last for a small while. When you teach something of great importance like an education or a job it helps them forever. This rings true in today's affairs because everyone wants a handout without learning how to make due themselves in the future.

I'm joking.  I've heard of it.  And it is definitely a very true saying.

Here is another one.  If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.  If you teach him how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.  But if he can't afford a fishing pole, what good have you done him?

 

You've given him a start.  Hell all you need is a stick, line, and hook!  ;)
