Normally, we use this sense of the word to account for the bad luck that we have in something or in a situation, in the personal, economic, work, among others. "He was fired from work for a series of miserable attitudes."
Something that has no value
On the other hand, when something has no value, or it is very scarce, it is often spoken in terms of miserable. "The reward they gave us was miserable, it was not enough for us."

Another sense of the term allows it to be used as a synonym for greedy and petty. The miser is that person who accumulates and accumulates money and does not spend it on anything, even, nor is moved by the need for someone who needs it. Greed is considered as the excessive desire to accumulate material goods beyond needing them to live. Is attitude is absolutely doomed from the plane moral and also from religion.
And also the word miserable is used as a synonym for bad and perverse. People with these characteristics like to cause harm intentionally and do not stop at that goal of harm. He will always be planning some action to annoy and harm others.
From the foregoing, it follows that this concept has a connotation absolutely negative, that is, attributed to a fact, situation or person, it will always imply something bad and not good.

When the quality of miserable is caused by lack of economic resources tends to awaken in the other a feeling of compassion and sometimes he is the object of assistance and help from those who have the most.
We cannot avoid that the word also refers us to one of the most recognized novels in the history of the literature: Les Miserables, written by the French author Victor Hugo in the second half of the nineteenth century and since its edition was a bestseller and versioned for TV, the movie theater and the theater.
