Being rich, gives you a sense of control or power over others. I guess that's why many people want to become rich. Besides avoiding discrimination out of being poor. You don't really need to become rich to live a fulfilling life. If you live within your means, nothing else matters. You can be part of the middle class and still be successful. But for some people, their current income is not enough. The more they earn, the better. To each, their own.
There are far more important things than just money. I'd suggest you choose your path wisely.
Yes, living a fulfilled life doesn't mean one has to be very rich, as far as one can be able to afford their needs and pay off their bills should be enough for them, as it the important thing that will happen to a man, as it will give them peace of mind and the freedom. So, people should chase in what will give them peace, as it can be of help to them and to others too, as everything else is extra and that is what it means for one to be successful.
There are some who want to be rich to live a luxurious life themselves, while some want to help others, but there are some who do not know why they want to be rich. They only think that the amount of money they have is that they need more. Most of them have a common interest that they will be rich and live a luxurious life themselves, that is, they do everything for their own happiness.
But to get real happiness, you do not need so much wealth. For happiness, you need a feeling of self-satisfaction. If a person is able to meet all his expenses, that is enough for him, but there is common religion in people that they are never content with anything. There are some who are happy with what they have, but they try to imitate others by looking at their wealth and become unhappy. In my opinion, if you can lead a normal life and have financial freedom, that is enough for a person's life.
