Rich and poor are relative terms. Anyone reading this comment can feel rich in certain rooms and poor in others. There is only 1 person in the entire world that is the richest person they know.
My takeaway from this post is that how someone feels about being rich or poor is something they can control and it might be better to not feel poor most of the time.
Being poor (or not) has some objective level, but is mostly about the surroundings that a person finds themselves in. Feeling poor also needs to account for an individual's past. I've had times where I was flush with cash and those situations raised the bar for feeling rich vs poor for my present & future self.
