When you ask this question a story comes to my mind. A young couple and a professional gambler went to a casino. The young couple bet $50 on Red. The professional gambler bet $1000 on Red. The wheel turned and the ball landed on Red. Now who won the most amount of money? Actually the young couple won $50 but the professional gambler lost $1000. ???? Why do I say this? Because the young couple happily embraced each other and boasted about thier winning while the professional gambler was hitting his head on the wall and cursing saying "Damn it, I should have bet $2000" Similary being poor is always comparative to somebody, and depends on somebody's attitude.
