I think we got shit all twisted, myself included.
We define wealth as having alot of bullshit material things.
But in some cultures, wealth isn't defined by "an abundance of material possessions and resources"
In ancient Japan, wealth was defined by how much rice you had.
In native cultures, wealth was defined by how much you could give away.
We need to look at how we define wealth, before we can claim who is impoverished.
Everthying you "own" can be lost in a single moment.
So than what do you really own?
And how does that tie into your definition of wealth?
