What is poor?

Sometimes in discussion I realize that what people define as poor is really a bit off balance.Poor means you make it but barely...........there are many more that are destitute......lost everything...no home .....no food  so you have to understand that there is a difference.
As part of my on going fight to speak truth I will tell you exactly what my conditions are.
I made 15,000 last year
I owe but not crazy over the top
I drive an 18 year old car
I never pay full price for anything
I have the worst job of my life(negative people)
My wife and I havent vacationed in many years.
Etc,etc,etc.
But,I have so much.There is a huge push to live like a movie star these days ,in my town there are big foot homes all over.
I find it so silly........look at our big house with 2 people and using up energy like nobodys business!
You must be aware of what you are doing.It is easy to forget when money comes and you feel it is the normal thing to do to go start buying.But worse that because you have been fortunate you have allowed it to make you feel your somebody!I will let you in on a secret........you have always been somebody we all come to this world the same.Dont confuse luck with success..........They are hugely different.I see it all the time.You would do well figure it out now so your not left empty thinking the money would make you "happy".
Wealth,and all its trappings is not what people think.
If you do not appreciate the love and compassion in your own home that is right in front of your face I would advise looking harder.
There is a mist rising up over the trees to the west of my house.........the beauty,....the light.... my love of it,.....success!
