When someone is a tight-arse with money and they sacrifice quality for a cheap dollar price. The item usually breaks or doesn’t work well and they have to buy again what they should have bought the first time
“I thought I got the bargain of all time but it was just crap.”
“Mate. The poor man always buys twice!”

When you can afford the basics but nothing else. Didn't grow up with the nice clothes, new electronics, vacations, etc Still had food on the plate, still had some clothing, still had internet access (if gen z)
synonyms: working class, lower middle class
Basically: You're poor according to the middle class, upper-middle class and the rich, but you're too rich for "true poverty"
Often gatekept out of being "disadvantaged" or being "just above the poverty line", but didn't grow up with the luxuries of the middle class or the upper class

A poor relative is someone you try to make look like a poor person so that your other relatives can live lavish lifestyles.I..e no divorce, 3 course meals for breakfast lunch and dinner, drive luxury cares, own mansions, gamble at the casinos every month. It is actually not really acceptable. and pretty low and scummy.
Lets call someone our poor relative in hopes that we become more successful.{ I am not your poor relative}
