The Character In The Most Enviable Position Is . . .

This is the opposite of Devin's question about which characters we 
pity.  In other words, which character seems to have a very good lot 
in life?  Careful now, because your answer may reveal something about 
what you value.

I found this a hard question to answer, but I think I'll go with 
Hermione.  She's in a pretty comfy situation, after all.  She has two 
(loving?) parents, enough money so that it is not an issue, and a 
great deal of ability and confidence.  I still get the sense that she 
isn't all that popular among her peers, though.  But I'd say she has 
the fewest number of problems of all the HP characters, has endured 
the least hardship, and has the most potential to succeed post-
Hogwarts.  

Funny thing, though.  She's not my favorite character.  Not by a long 
shot.  But how could I honestly get away with saying that Lupin or 
Black is in an enviable position?
