I used to think I was poor. Then they told me I was not poor, I was needy. They told me it was self-defeating to think of myself as needy, I was deprived. (Oh not deprived but rather underprivileged.) Then they told me underprivileged was overused. I was disadvantaged. I still dont have a dime but I have a great vocabulary.
