That depends on how you chose to look at him.
He traveled lite so he had few possessions. In our materially rich, spiritually poor world this is viewed as being poor.
He was obviously a very highly developed being in a spiritual sense. Even 2,000 years later he still makes the rest of us look like spiritual paupers.
I guess in the final analysis it all boils down to what we cherish. This decides how we will see things. You make up your reality as you go by deciding what it is that is important to you. One way of seeing creates spiritual riches, the other gathers material objects.
One of these we take home with us when we are finished with life's lessons. The other stays with the body and turns to dust with it.
Only you can decide which one is most important to you.
Love and blessings

He owns everything, all belongs to Him. But for our sakes the Good LORD became poor so that through Him we may be made rich.

Jesus had no money to pay His taxes. He told peter to go fishing and the first fish he caught he could take the money that was in it's mouth and pay the taxes with it. You could do the same with that much faith.
Rich is in the mind. Money has it's own problems.

It is a known fact that Jesus was a vary wealthy man, but there are those that want and I say want to believe he was poor and humble simply not true.

he was more on the poor side. jospeh provided income to live, and they had enough to spare heading to jerusalem a couple times, but he surely diidn't have an x-box.
