In the story "The Necklace" by Guy de Maupassant, Mme. Mathilde Loisel borrows a diamond necklace from her friend when she is invited to a fancy party.
Mathilde has always wanted to belong to the upper class, and she gives a lot of importance to money and appearances. However, she does not have the money to sustain that kind of life. Therefore, she feels embarrased and does not want to attend the party as she says she has nothing that would suit the elegant setting. Her husband suggests borrowing the necklace from her friend. Doing so is very important for Mathilde because it is the only way for her to appear elegant and wealthy at the party, and to not feel dismissed or belittled by her low position in society.
The idea of what it means to be successful after high school greatly varies from person to person, as everyone has different goals and aspirations for their future. In today's society, being called successful is often associated with wealth, however for many this is not the goal.
Many people strive to be morally successful over wealth, as they feel that being part of a good cause is more important. Many professions that fall under this category are joining the army to protect and serve, representing your country in international sports, or participating in a non-profit organization.
