+1.

It's interesting to me how many people in this thread and others like it are quick to point out that they could buy a car if they wanted to and how offended they get if people mistake them for a needy person. They want to avoid the stigma of being poor at all costs. This is a reaction to the shameful phenomenon of poor shaming.
