So, success == wealth? That's quite a myopic view, IMO.

  In a rich country, that's a very easy thing to say. In most of the world and most of human history, success definitely equates to wealth, because the poor are permanently one bad harvest away from starvation. Wealth is the only road towards securing safety for you and your progeny. Even today in the US, wealth might not imply success, but when unexpected bad things happen, money is the best safety net.
