To which extend can you enjoy things, until you get bored?
Or until you have no further economic means to reach new things?
That depends on the person.
I've never been particularly wealthy and was brought up in a poor (economically poor) environment. Life being so rare, near impossible, living for the sake of living should be a fair motivation. As much as life is pointless, early death is unnecessary.
If we could genetically modify ourselves, I think I'd be content to live for a few hundred more years without getting "bored." Seeing the planet, or planets if we ever make it off this rock, learning new things, witnessing new technologies and human achievements... It makes it all worthwhile in a way.
