It's pretty obvious that you are defining success as = lots of $$. It is the yuppie ideal of success, that thankfully went out of fashion back in the 1980s. There are many people who feel very successful without lots of money. Is a "Mr. Normal" who has a modest income and a loving wife and family, not a success in your book?

I'd define success as contentment. If you are content in your life, and with your choices in life, then you do not need to compare yourself to anyone else's definition of "success".
