Material success is real but temporary, and no fortune can purchase eternity. Catholics hear a powerful reminder of human equality before God and of the need to use possessions for charity rather than making them idols. The Gospel's account of the rich fool gives a similar warning, while Christ offers the redemption money cannot buy. The Psalm invites us to measure the value of life by its eternal destination instead of its outward display.
