It is not a straw man. I am not replacing "person who spent a lot of time and effort to attain monetary wealth" with "boring douche bag", and then attacking "boring douche bags".
I am merely pointing out the unintentional consequences of a lifetime in pursuit of the only object whose only purpose is to allow you to do or get things.
I'll put it another way: If you can't figure out anything interesting to make while you're alive, make money instead.
If you want to talk about a straw man argument, how about the fact that you're substituting "being filthy rich" with "having enough money to pay rent and feed children", and then opposing someone who is opposed to "having enough money to pay rent and feed children"?
