What views does Siddhartha associate with the world?

Siddhartha begins to envy people who have a sense of purpose in the world, This attachment to the world is poison for him, "the soul sickness of the rich crept over him, and Siddhartha gives himself completely to his acquisitiveness and his insatiable desire to consume (78). Siddhartha begins to gamble as a way to rebel against riches and worldly desires but eventually the game becomes its own reward. Siddhartha must contemplate his downward spiral and detach himself from all things worldly.
