Cover art for Desolate [The Conductor] lyrics by Woe, Is Me

"Sleeping in with the poor is a fortune for the brave" anyone have any idea what that line means? that line has always stuck with me but i'm still trying to decipher what exactly he's saying with it

If you’re brave enough to try and change things, then you will end up with absolutely nothing, so much that even sleeping in a tiny home with the poor will seem like a fortune to you.
