Yes, money make you rich. If your answer is no, it means the money you have is not enough. Someone need a lot of money to be rich no matter if he/she don't have any knowledge, information, wisdom etc. If you have money you can pay someone else who have knowledge or whatsoever.
I think that's true we cant be assured on the small quantity of money that we have on our hand. Being successful is being able to become financially stable with or without the involvment of daily service giving, the investments and savings that you have must be enough and fulfilling to make you rich enough and doesnt required to be under the people who is professionally upward to you.
