if he was poor then he's an asshole for having been poor.
people don't have empathy for people who are poor. just malice.
I live an upper middle class lifestyle in my 40s. i haven't been poor for 20+ years, and yet for some people, it's considered something you can never live down, it's an original sin from which you can't ever be washed clean. you would be amazed at how openly hostile and violent people are towards those who are not as economically fortune as they are. rich and privileged people do not regard the poor and middle-class as human beings.
