Well for one I don't plan on being rich, my goal is around 100,000 a year doing something I love to do (I.E. Working for myself online), for now though what keeps me going is the thought of not going back to a regular job, really when I think about it all I need to survive off of right now is around 2,000 a month, not a whole lot when it comes down to it.
Overall motivation though is a house, not going back to a regular shit $12 dollar an hour job when all you get at the end of the day is stress, the satisfaction of succeeding on your own and knowing if you do fail it was under your terms, it was not because of someone else or company downsizing, or any other bullshit that comes from working for someone else.

I am buying a Tama Rockstar drumset and car (probably a civic, a black Civic DX would be ideal) right now, as well as a Schecter Hellraiser Avenger guitar when I've got some extra money saved up again.
My plan is to move to somewhere that I'll be able to play at a good decibal level. That'll probably be pretty pricey. Ideally I'd rent or purchase a house, but that's a ways in the future.
This is all to help me achieve my goal quicker, and have a bit of extra money to live in the interim.

My motivation...the dream of having a big house on 40+ acres in a beautiful location (forest/mountains) with a river running through or near it, prison-like security fence, guards, maid, butler, shooting range, heated swimming pool, fully equipped gym, weapons vault stocked with all kinds of goodies, helicopter with pilot, and the ability to do whatever I want whenever I want. I'm sure it sounds odd, but that really is my dream ...reality is that I'd just like to be working for myself and able to go anywhere I want whenever I want.

- a house in Malmo
- a Volvo C70 that is currently sitting on my desktop
- being fucking rich doing something I like
at the moment, but I am making few bucks a day so I have to work hard before even thinking about this stuff
there's more satisfaction in $5 in your first commission than in a hard worked monthly salary

Showing fuckfaces around me that I'm better than them. They're idiots who thinks that success is working in some firm for some jerk for whole life.
I'm 18 y.o. and living in primitive society that has been in capitalism for 17 years. I don't like communism because I know that it wouldn't work, but other idiots don't know that and they are trying to work in companies that are state property. That's just dumb. When I say that people who work in US(and)A earn few times more and all I have to do is work with them over the internet they say that I'm stupid and I'd have to study hard so I can earn $800/month for whole my life.
When I remember faces of those people, I get motivated. That is why I have their picture next to my desk...

See my silly little stick man pic? That's where I'm gonna be!
I want to travel a lot more. Just chill on some tropical beach, an hour or so a day on a laptop to keep things ticking over.
Money in itself is no motivation for me, it's the freedom money brings. Once I'm making enough to live here in the UK with little work, then I know I can travel around the world and not have to worry about cash.

Hit it right on the head. Not only that, but I want to be able to help people. Be that donations to charities, or teaching young entrepreneurs with that perfect idea that just need the "funding push", that's my goal.
Oh, and to take care of my family - what it is now, and what it will be.
John chow's blog sucks. His blog contains nothing actually helpful. Just paid post and promotional filler for other gurus. The best blogs are those that contain useful coding ideas mixed with commentary and other advice.
Poodlehead, did you come in with webonline and Windowsoft? Which personality are you? Do you use post-its to keep up?
To answer the question...
freedom motivates me. Money gives me freedom from worrying about how I'm going to pay next month's bills, how I'm going to provide for my kids, how I'm going to be independent.
Money is freedom.
