poor has 2 meaning poverty & pity. poor cat = kucing yg kasihan. Poverty is the lack of basic human needs, such as clean water, nutrition, health care, education, clothing and shelter, because of the inability to afford them. wiki.

to bro tesla,

poor means a lottt...not only money, maybe wisdom, or knowledge...

i assume, every one here are not a BUDDHA and stil poor of DHAMMA

thats why , we keep learning about it.

do u agree?

sorry, i'm not

no, poors means lack of basic needs. while money, wisdom, knowledge are not basic needs.

the more proper word for your sentense is lack, not poor...
lack can be applied for anything :)

lack of desire, lack of wisdom, lack of knowledge, so on...

if you can live on without those things, than you are not poor, simply you are lack of it (wisdom, knowledge, desire, money)... when comes to basic needs, one will die (or dying) without it, thats why we call them poor (also means pity) ;)

it's hard to feel happy BECAUSE I'm poor (financially). It looks like I'm trying to relieve myself from the burden of being POOR.  ;D

I think happiness has little things to do with happiness. It depends on how much you cling on it (money).
I'm not guaranteed to be happy only because I have a lot of money or no money at all (poor me ^-^).

But I agree, worldly happiness depends much on money. So, if what you mean is worldly happiness, I guess it's hard for me to be happy BECAUSE i'm POOR ... instead, it seems like misery.
