Your definition of success (alien.top)

What's your definition of success? Is there a magic number, lifestyle, number of people helped, families supported (including your own)?

Everyone has their own goals. For me its financial freedom and not worrying about any bills with a property paid off.

Just started making over 500k a year (with multi year contracts) and still not satisfied. I'm thinking at 1m/yr I will be, but maybe not. Need to buy that property free and clear. Btw, my metrics on home have changed. Had a 4/3 house with a large pool in the backyard. Now want a house with a view of the ocean. The idea that will somehow make me happier is part of this post.

Did you hit your goal and level of success? Were you satisfied when you did?

Success for me is an inner feeling as I know by experience that money does not make you feel any different. So, for me, success and happiness go hand in hand.

Yes, I can relate to that as well. I think the impact you have and how you make others around you feel is important.
