What I see is difficult is that if you were born in that society, you see it as required. Your ability to find peace in that area becomes increasingly difficult. Homes, food, cars, jobs, computers, phones. Things require more things which need more things and things. Being happy with what you have instills wealth. Its saying, I am wealthy, look at what I have. How lucky I was to be born here, with opportunity only bound by my will to create. We have nothing stopping us, other than ourselves. It is not required, its that the route away from that is impossible. We have no choice but to move forward, not backwards now. If you could just run off into the woods and grow farms and build a house. The skills nessecary to do so are extremely valuable. What if tomorrow the world that money you knows stops. What will you have thats of value. Imagine money as you know it is gone, as I am assuming you are talking about currency. Which is NOT a money. Your inner peace, the centre of mind is where you operate from. Than you physically express your physical wealth which reaches out to family and friends. What is of value when people loose the "security and comfort" that they have become used to.

At the same time if you are happy with what you have why would you seek to self improve? I see benefit to always trying to grow and improve on whatever you have.
