“What constitues success? She has achieved success who has lived well; laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent people and the love of little children; who has filled her niche and accomplished her task; who has left the world better than she found it;…who has never lacked appreciation of earth’s beauty, or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given the best she had.”

to reiterate on my point on a “material scale,” what I was trying to convey is, that success is more than just worldly possessions.
