Religion is an inheritance.
If there is some form to save you or save others, even to save the world, then listen closely. No one can tell you that you are wrong. Living well' means enough responsibility as befits your situation, most of which is related to 'getting' a suitable situation, or even enough education as allows you to earn a means. Success in acquisition has more to do with utilizing education and training, combined with savy, to achieve a place. Not everyone succeeds at acquisition, and most learn the limits that define happiness.
