So YES, we as a people have become spoiled and naive if we really think how we live today is "horrible". What we define as "poverty" here, would be a life of grandeur in a lot of other places on Earth.
Sorry if I misunderstood you. But the only reason I have a roof over my head is because of my brother. If he hadn't bought my house for me, I'd be homeless. Most of the "extras" I have, he bought for me too: my computer and tv among other things. My disability isn't enough to pay for rent and food and meds and other stuff too.
