Being affluent or rich doesn't makes your life meaningful by itself.
Some very poor workers enjoy their craft and are 100% fulfilled by it, some very rich celebrities lost themselves in their money and fame. I tend to think that having a community has more importance than money in that regard.
People survived in the past by working 12+ hours a day 7 days a week, but they had strong family bond (someone sick wouldn't get paid, no welfare, no pension, &c ..).
If anything (too much) money enables you to go down the rabbit hole and amplify your vices.
