If you have a warm place to sleep and can afford 3 meals a day for you and your kids, I wouldn't say you're poor. Other people will definitely try their hardest to make you feel inadequate for not having a bunch of shallow luxuries tho. Sone reasonable luxuries. I'm more the tyle to respect someone who is comfortable enough with themselves to live happily with the least amount of luxuries. Difference between mastering yourself or your surroundings.

I mean, I'm not poor at all but I simply can't afford to move out. I have no higher education and no real talent, so I kinda feel gated at my current salary. I ain't poor tho. Just in an unfortunate location ig. I make 50k and among my friends that actually trends a little higher. We literally all live with our folks and are in our late 20s-early 30s

I hate it here lol

:/

I make over 100k and I feel like I am barely scraping by. I have some savings but it still feels like so little.

I'm a high school teacher with over 40K in savings in two years.

My salary is like $44K (plus whatever I do in the summer).

What makes you feel like you're barely scraping by? Kids? Child care? Just wondering.

I mean if I still made 30k where I am now I'd have to live at home or get multiple roommates and scrape by. I'd consider that poor, but obviously the term is entirely relative.

My net worth is over 250k but my income is about 50-55k per year.

So, wouldnt really say Im poor compared to a lot of folks but definitely not living large either.

In my area I'm barely considered middle income after an unexpected raise last fall.

If I was a single parent that'd drop me below living wage with even just 1 child.

There's literally a definition of poverty though.
