Impecunious
Impecunious. - link to Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary
I believe I have found an accurate descriptive word for my life. Poor, but not desperate. I don’t necessarily identify as poor, but I am often enough lacking “wealth” and living by my own resourcefulness that by other people’s standards I am likely seen as poor. Impecunious is often a derisive term, but to me it is a simple and accurate description of financial lacking without any implication of guilt or want.
