My definition of poor is probably pretty extreme. It's having a genuine chance of dying due to lack of food, water, clothing, shelter.
If I don't think there's a chance of me dying, and I'm not in a state of physically suffering due to lack of resources, then I don't feel that poor. So, I could be happy in a tent, slum, or dirt floor hut if I had enough resources to not suffer.
So, what does poor mean to you? What would make you feel poor?
