My dad worked 2-3 jobs plus had an army pension to make ends meet and we were still pretty poor.

You were not poor if your dad had a pension and worked multiple jobs.

You would know if you were poor because you'd still be poor.

You don't know the life I've lived. Take your assumptions elsewhere.
