Disposable income is the money people have after taxes.

You can have 10000 dollars of monthly disposable income and be well above the global average. You can have 9999 dollar rent with only a single dollar left. A single basic peanut butter and jelly sandwich could cost 100 dollars. Your disposable income is still massively above the average. Your discretionary income would be very low, though.
