There's no difference between the way that poor and rich people live. Or rather, there IS a difference, but it's only aesthetic:
For instance, the rich person's clothing is neatly tailored, whereas the poor person's clothing is one-size-fits-all. Note, however, that one can be healthy in body and mind despite the cut of one's outfit.
Also, being unable to afford cologne, a poor person will smell like nothing in particular; whereas the rich are freshly bathed and smell like peppermint. But, again, one's mental and bodily health remain relatively the same, whether one's bouquet is intoxicating or unscented.
The rich own mansions, but they still can only occupy one bedroom at a time; therefore the poor, who live in studio apartments, experience exactly the same life as the ultra-rich.
The difference between rich and poor is therefore negligible. When both are pricked, both bleed; and when either dies, the other follows suit within about one generation; and they both end up in heaven. (Upon arrival, each is informed: "The god of your choice has transferred all your earthly wealth to your permanent home.")
