Kinda hard to consider them poor if they can afford the $10k it costs to whale out $48k more :-\

Apparently they only pay the difference to 48k for the missing items.

Meaning they're getting fleeced continually.

They might not be poor, but they could be middle class sinking all their savings and getting credit to fuel their addiction.
