Deserving a D

Ross

I believe the answer is:

poor

'deserving a d' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for poor that I've seen before include "Mere" , "Indigent or substandard" , "Lacking money and resources" , "Having little money or means" , "Lacking means; paltry" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
