I was wondering that myself.  Are we defining success as academic
success?  (getting 4.0s, and painting stuff on other stuff)  Or is it
monetary success?  Or is happiness success?

Because happiness seems recursively doomed: society defines success by
what you have (rather than what you do), but people are definitely not
happy because they're chasing stuff to get rather than enjoying what
they have.

So why do people value stuff other people have even when that pursuit
of that stuff makes them miserable as does the acquisition of it?
