He's the ultimate underdog - not the kid with a rich uncle who gives him a porche....
He was, though. He had already designed a suit to help focus his new powers as well as web-shooters prior to Tony meeting him.

I wasn't a fan of how they forgot his spider sense, then named it peter tingle in the second movie, when it's an integral part of the character and they treat it as a one off joke. They've made him look more pedestrian than the character should be, he's much more resourceful and powerful in past iterations. I get it, it's a take on the character, but I don't enjoy this take as much as I did Tobey and Andrews because they were able to encompass the character better, between Tobey's nerd persona, to Andrew's jokes. This movie is going to be awesome, nobody disputes that, I mean it better be if all the rumors are true, you bring that many characters from the past back for one movie, it better be good. Also it's completely genius on how Marvel can do a Sinister Six film without giving each character their own backstory because that's all been setup over the last twenty years, I just hope the Sinister Six vs three Spidermen is everything we hoped for and more. This is supposed to be the end of this three movie trilogy, but the next one is supposed to showcase him in college, which is where I would like the symbiote to come to play in Tom Holland's universe, I would like to see them give that storyline the love it deserves, and not just Dark Phoenix it in two different universes.
He was 15 in Civil War so perhaps that plays into it a bit. He quite possibly got his powers as a 14 year old. Typically in the others he was closer to 18.
