That is so abundantly true on HN[0]. Nearly any thread about poverty, money, or credit will be full of examples of people who don't understand what it's like to not have money, and it is strange. It's not usually the "American Dream" types who claim that anyone who works hard enough will be able to escape poverty. It's usually the, "have you tried not being poor?" types. Who the hell has money to pay for a house, car, and higher education outright? Those people certainly exist, but it's not the majority.
