It's common to view money as a goal. Money is worthless in and of itself, though. It's only a means to an end. Money is a tool you can use.

Having goals, systems, or a purpose in life gives you direction. It gives you something meaningful to do with your time.

Having direction in life gives you clarity when life transitions knock us around because it helps us reorient to what's important.

Here are poems and songs that get at similar things to what I write and draw about. Life is short. Enjoy it. Be grateful!
