Someone who is perfect, without sin or fault (basically, you'll never find such a person), will not suffer in this world, because G-d is just and would never make anyone suffer for no reason whatsoever. So someone who is basically a good person but has a few faults and is suffering in this world is actually getting a good deal because that means that he won't have to endure any suffering in the World-to-Come. The person who has no suffering at all (if you could find such an individual...), will have to go through a painful purging process when his soul departs his body.
There does exist the concept of "tests," where G-d will bring a test upon a totally righteous person (like Job) to see how much his faith can endure
