    I don't understand this sentence. Do you mean something like

    I am a part of the world, the world that will go on with or without me, the world that will be forever affected by me.
    Какая разница, умереть богатым или бедным?

    Какой толк от богатства если ты не счастлив.

    Here is my best guess.

    Я - часть мира, мир, который будет продолжать или с меня или без меня, мир, который будет навсегда затрагивать я.

    I do not understand the second part. What does it mean? That's my guess:

    мир, который я всегда буду любить.

    The second part means that the world will always be influenced by you, you will always have had an effect on it.

    To affect something means that you influence something or have an impact on something.

    I've found in my dictionary that obsolete meaning of "affected by" is like this:

    a novel much affected by our grandparents — роман, который так любили наши бабушки и дедушки


    In the proper sense of the word ( influence, impact) the sentence doesn't make sense to me.

    Oh, seems i get it - it's a sort of dialectical philosophy.
