Some people are convinced that great possession of material wealth is a sign of success. In my opinion, material wealth cannot be considered as a sign of success.

If material wealth is considered as a sign of success, people will neglect the spiritual side of life by faithfully pursuing the material wealth. In that case, the whole world will be only material-orientated, and finally the world will only be a cashbox without friendship, love or vitality. Because it’s too limited and too parochial, material wealth is only a tiny part of success but not a sign of success.
