The true meaning of life is Jesus. Once you receive Him as your Lord and personal saviour you begin to discover the essence of life.
Any life lived outside Jesus is wasted.
You can have money, fame, influence, even the whole world but without Jesus, everything is in vain
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and, and lose his own soul? Mark 8:36
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6
