Then when you're on your death bed you realise that ultimately it was all futile, because no matter what you did or how successful you could have been at it: every life ends up at the same point you are at now.
The point is, I don't think it's as simple as that.

Really no objective way to measure it. Maybe someone helped a ton of people but let down those close to them, and they end up with regret.
