Not sure what you mean to be honest. People don't like being poor where I live either
Having a job that pays your bills isn't "poor" by global standards.
I don't think anyone specified that all their bills are being paid. That phrase paycheck to paycheck means they are on the brink or under and they are not really making enough money to cover their lives which is why Americans have such high levels of debt.
Where I live in Mexico people want to be rich and just making enough money to pay bills sucks
