While money is a necessary tool that can help you achieve your goals and help you survive as a human. It should not define who you are, as such your self worth should not be embedded in money. How the way a rich man is treated is the same way a poor man should be treated. I say treat everyone with respect just because they are humans. We humans are all equal in front of Allah but we were created in ranks, as such we have leaders. Allah is the only God. There is absolutely no one like Him and He has no partner.
Your self worth should be built on the love of God. The money is a blessing from Allah that you might have worked hard for or might have be given to you by a human (which is still from Allah) but it could also be taken away from you by Allah. What will you do then if that happens since all you are about is the money in your pocket. The source(s) of your income should be halal. I have not said do not aim for financial growth please do but do not let it define you.
Everything happens according to the will of Allah. Everything should be done deliberately for the sake of Allah. Part of doing something for the sake of Allah means hoping for a reward from Him (both in this life and life after death).
Halal means anything lawful Islamically.
