To me, wealth is not having the stress or worry to get by week to week, or even day to day.
For example, my main financial goal in life, is to be able to afford MORE time to not be at work.
Of course I would probably spend more money on a car or material items. But being into cars more would allow me to go to more events, whether it be a local meet, or a track event, or even just meeting with a few close car buddies for lunch/dinner.
I am closer than ever to replacing my 9-5 job with the making my own money.(I have been investing in various markets for years)
Basically, wealth to me is being able to do more of what you WANT to do, rather than doing what you HAVE to do. Now that's not saying I just walk around and do whatever I want, whenever I want. But I think you get the idea
