Some people think that success is mainly measured by how much money a person has. To what extent do you agree?

Everyone yearns to be successful but success is not gotten on a silver platter. Well, there are some exceptions, like

people

who were born with silver spoons in their mouths. In fact, I agree that the measurement of success is determined by how much

money

a

person

has. Have you ever seen a poor successful man?

To begin

with, every individual goes to school with an aim of graduating and getting a well-paid job. When

this

goal is not achieved, society tends to look down on them. Undoubtedly

people

go to school with the mindset of becoming rich and successful. When an individual drops out of school, it is often said that he or she will be unsuccessful because he or she will not get a job that pays well and

thus

success is related to earning a good salary.

For instance

, doctors are seen as successful because it is assumed that their salary is good.

Additionally

, when one has

money

to afford a house, a car and basic needs, the

person

is seen as being successful.

This

is because, without

money

, these things cannot be achieved. In fact, the type of car a

person

drives puts a tag on that

person

as being rich and successful.

Such

people

are seen as role models and

people

look up to them.

For example

, a banker will be made chairperson of an event because he drives an expensive car and lives an expensive lifestyle and

thus

he's made it in life. In conclusion, many

people

are seen as successful because of the

money

they have, the expensive cars they drive and the kind of life they live. If you do not fall in that category, you have not made it yet.
