How Do You Define Success?

I guess What one-fact do you take as 'a clear sign that a business/country/person is a success-story?'
The way I'd figure it, Hillary Clinton was the most successful candidate in the 2016 Presidential race (because she had the most voters backing her). But apparently America's definition of success is messed up; because the candidate THEY (mostly the Senate, with NONE of them seconding the Representatives' objections to the States' electoral-counts) thought succeeded was Donald Trump.
That is---MY definition is 'more people viewing your content (mostly because they agree with your opinions or method-of-conversation).' What's YOUR definition of success?

Success to me is saving around $50,000 to give to my son when I die..at least that much..he will need it.

Sad that--by that time--it'll probably only be WORTH about $10,000 in today's money (unless you mean to save him around $250,000)

@RebeccasFarm But you give him a love he can pass on to his own children---a value untouchable by inflation's depreciation!

Many people view success by how much money a person has or how well a person is doing but to me that is the worlds view of it too me success is accomplishing goals that you have set out to do seeing them through until you reach the finish line of your goals. One of the phrases that i say all the time is this it is one thing to speak your dream it is another thing to see your dream but if you only speak your dream and see your dream and never act upon your dream to see it through then what is the use of dreaming at all.

Still, sometimes you have to knock (loud and long) before you can enter the door to success.
But then if you knock on too many doors, the housekeeper won't believe you truly WANT to enter ... but if you don't knock on ANY doors, you'll never know?
