I agree with sdrealtor. He has the proper perspective. I find that his perspective/belief being so easily dismissed fascinating, and more than a little sad.
Yes, sdrealtor definitely has the proper definition of success or happiness. In fact every month or so, while my wife points out all the things that we don’t have, I have to remind her of all the things that we do have. We have two beautiful, happy children, a roof over our heads, clothes on our back, and never go to bed hungry (unless we’re trying to lose a few pounds), and time to spend with each other. Those are the things that are really important in life.
I think those who dismiss this as a valid response, are doing so because the original question was about wealth, not about happiness or success. Since the primary definition of wealth is An abundance of valuable material possessions or resources; riches, they are trying to answer that question.
