Do you believe “being successful” and “making a lot of money” are the same thing?
No, they are different. This question can be a big topic.but simple to say, most successful people are have lots of money, but money not equals success. Successful have many types. If you agree with opposite, so you think the poor people are unsuccessful. Many artists are not rich, but in their domain of art, they are the best, they are successful.
