There will by no certain answer here. That's a question answered only by going out around the world and seeing and asking people how their lives are and then comparing.

There's a lot fewer rich people than poor people. It's also easier to pick them out compared to the poor people.
There are easily millions of people with near nothing, but how do you compare the sub-Saharan with damn near nothing to the Indian with damn near nothing to the North Korean with damn near nothing to..
You get the idea.
Plus, how do you compare a poor person with damn near nothing to a first-world person who has a negative cash flow due to crippling debt? Who's poorer?
