What were the differences between the middle ages and the renaissance in the attitude toward wealthy pleasures?

During the Middle Ages, material wealth and worldly pleasures were often viewed as distractions from spiritual life, and the pursuit of them was frowned upon by the Church. In contrast, the Renaissance saw a shift towards a more secular worldview where wealthy pleasures were embraced as a sign of success and power, leading to the flourishing of art, literature, and patronage among the wealthy elite.
