Watching this, I feel like everyone needs to travel more. Growing up "poor" in the United States is not poor. I grew up in Compton, Ca in the 80's and 90's and even I, after traveling to other much poorer countries as an adult, stopped using the terms "grew up poor". Honestly, in the United States poverty is mostly a joke. Even in the projects. What makes us uniquely poor is the broken homes, the drugs, and the crime rates. Not the living conditions. Everyone on this podcast, from an international perspective, comes across as spoiled children honestly, when seen from international standards.
