I was insinuating that the "true meaning" of life does not lie in material possessions or in money itself. If it did, we'd all be born with wallets attached to us. Everyone's life has its own individual meaning, but its safe to say in general, money is not the reason we inhabit this planet. At least, in my opinion.
imo the role of humans is to consume... I personally believe that we are a hugely destructive species to the earth. Any other "meaning" to life is one we attatch to it ourselves.
