I guess that's like asking "What's the meaning of life?"

It's different for every individual. It depends on you as a person, on what "rock bottom" looks like for you, on how you got there...

But generally, it teaches you the skills needed to claw your way back up from rock bottom. And those same skills can be very valuable in life in many other ways.

A lot more people are at the rock bottom than at the top. So those lessons mean nothing.

Resilience, humility and compassion to others. With hard work and striving to better yourself you will build these character.

Unless you lie, cheat, and steal your way to the top, then you will be selfish, unforgiving, and proud.

The lessons do mean something, yes a lot of people are at the bottom right now but if only 1% of people at the bottom take this and it motivates them to achieve more it would certainly be worth it.
