True Wealth

A man's true wealth is the good he does in this world.

"It is not what we take up, but what we give up, that makes us rich." - Henry Ward Beecher

To be wealthy, aim for more than just money.

You aren't wealthy until you have something money can't buy. - Garth Brooks

If we're not rich, it's our duty to make all the money we can without sacrificing the things more important than money, self-respect, peace of mind, honor, and the rights of others.

We must strive to be excel in making a life and not just making a living - making money.

The Bible gave instructions to the rich in 1 Timothy 6:18-19 - "Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life."
