I think what Zero is getting at is that most of hte material out there is not targetted towards people of lower socio-economic status. And that's true. I hate to say this, but that's because there are fewer poor people compared to a massive middle class. That means that most people who are into PD will come from a larger middle class (although there are people who rose from poverty, but they're proportionally fewer), thus they will largely talk about problems related to middle classes and that living. Add to that the idea that the middle class is perhaps the most profitable to sell to, you've got material highly targetted towards that group.
So, you're right, the materials out there are targetted more towards the middle class. On the other hand, personal development is about bettering yourself. While having materials is great and all, you can do it without the right materials (as I think you've done).
Excuse me if this post doesn't make sense or is inappropriate, I'm not all here today.
