I think Mary's right. I think I would summarize what she said in three words: Family and friends
Try this thought experiment. Presume you could have all the money you wanted. Thanks to this bounty, you could live anywhere you wanted or move from home to home if you chose -- your Mediterranean villa, your ski house in the Swiss alps, your ranch in New Mexico, etc., etc.
Any meal you wanted would be prepared proto! by a chef and delivered to your table.
Oh, and you would have first-rate medical care any time you got sick.
Clothing? Jewelry? Anything you want.
Cars? Boats? Planes? All you want.
There is only one condition attached: You can have anything you want -- BUT you can have no one in your company, ever. You must remain alone with these exceptions: a doctor or medical personnel if you required them; a waiter to deliver your meals, a tailor to measure you, etc.. None of these professionals or service people would be allowed to stay, chat and visit with you.
But remember: You would have all the money you wanted.
Would meaningful work be a component? I'm a a stay at home home maker and if I don't work at keeping my house and yard clean and taking good care (including walks) of my dogs, I get depressed.
