..and you are male. Just kidding. :) As a child with older siblings I always wore hand me downs. Bought my first brand new jacket at 23yrs. Still got it.
And on the opposite end of the spectrum are the people that live like their wealthy but live paycheck to paycheck. A person doesn’t have to be poor to do things to save money - there was book called “The Millionaire Next Door” that came out about 20 years ago - they found that the typical millionaire didn’t do wasteful things with their money but rather spent it wisely.
My folks moved out of the city to a farm so we could raise a lot of our own food. I have no idea where my dad got the energy. He was up at 4 to drive in to wherever work was, then home at 5-ish to put in several hours of chores. We kids worked in the gardens all Summer and of course tended livestock every day, year round. We also ate a lot of wild game. I remember a TV special about how hard some poor person living in DC had it...they had Coke in their fridge. I had never had one.

"It is included in your taxes" - which are astronomical.
No. They are not.
