Being honest in life is the joy of being poor?

No, it totally sounds like "wishful thinking". "If you are honest, you have to be poor" there is no rule in our life. So thinking "I'm poor because I'm honest and that's happiness" is basically giving yourself false comfort. Just as the idea that honest people are poor is wrong, it is also wrong that honest poverty is happiness. Poverty of any kind is not a cause of joy; To be sure, it is not a source of sadness for some exceptional people.
