Money beyond necessity means as much or as little as you individually value it to mean.

And there is not "a world where money means everything" vs a world where money means less, money is literally an abstract representation of your trade capability with other people. If you want to trade things directly without the usage of money, you're free to do so at the loss of a convenient abstraction. If you'd like to choose a different abstraction, like gold or real estate, you're free to do so. If you don't want to trade goods and services at all and do everything yourself, you're free to do so at the loss of convenience that comes from the division of labor. If you want to find a community of like-minded people that can pool available resources to grab a plot of land to collectively self-sustain, you're free to do so.

So no, this isn't some "we live in a society where..." situation where kids now want to be YouTubers because that's what society "values." The market barely values it, there are probably like 10000 successful YouTubers. Choosing that as a career path, given that they are primarily motivated by money, would be an idiotic decision. They're clearly motivated by other factors, like fame, peer adulation, flexible hours, and interest in the job itself. If money was the primary motivator, they'd choose almost any other profession.
