I mean in comparison to people who have much less than you. You know, the old chestnut of: "I am so privileged and have so much, and yet there are people out there who don't even know if they're going to eat again this week."

I'm not pointing fingers, I'm just curious as I often struggle with the issue of reconciling all my privileges (and wants) with the fact that billions of people live in poverty.
