I like how attending a private school is a sign of social status in Louisiana when most of their private schools aren't nearly as good as suburban public schools in Houston, Dallas and Austin.

Barely being able to afford to live.
Is correct answer.
Some other terms that go with this answer:
Shack.
Food stamps.
Live with random people growing up.
Etc.
But thats all secondary. The real answer is: "barely being able to afford to live"
its hard to make it out of that. But the people that i know that have are pretty amazing. Amazing scientists, doctors, lawyers, business folk, etc.
Adversity i think is only thing that ever creates true greatness. I know of no exceptions.
Granted, true greatness is a relative term. I dont mean bill gates or steve ballmer. But they both had types of adversity i guess. But not "barely being able to afford to live." Well, bill gates had that briefly, but was self imposed and fake. Anyway... Good answer.

Absolutely it's a social status. I'm very proud of it.
