You picked an extremely loaded way to express something that's presumably meant to be uplifting.

I think it's only loaded if you want it to be. People from economically depressed areas are... economically depressed. People from ghettoes and trailer parks are typically underprivileged and tend not to do economically as well as others. If doing economically well were not important or a measure of success, well, we would not be worrying about economic success...
I believe it's a matter of tact, not a matter of fact
