that may well be, but you can be poor and still own shares. like if you have lots of debt, but are slowly paying it back and you have them from before that.

also, like i mentioned earlier, there are really cheap ones, for example KYG8701T1388 is cheaper than a lottery ticket at the moment (but brokers have varying fees and there may be taxes).
