Is this correct, 'They live a hard/difficult life'?
I mean they are really poor and their living condition isn't good. On the contrary, can I say 'We live a happy life'?

Thank you!

Answer

"They live a hard/difficult life" - yes, this would probably be understood to mean they are poor

"They live a happy life" - the opposite would be "they live a sad life", there's no strong connection to money. If you want to mean they are not poor, you can say "they live a [financially] stable life"

Answer

In my opinion, your sentence is correct.
