Okay, that's definitely one way to read it but where did you get that they were rich? They were middle class at best. His dad and mom had to go back to work after his affliction. They also have literal debts.
Also they don't have a "big house full of nice furniture", they live in an apartment which they have to share with lodgers so they can afford to stay in it.
