abomination
Avoid wrong
ways
   He who oppresses
   the poor to increase
   his riches, and he
   who gives to the
   rich, will surely come
   to poverty.
   Proverbs. 22:16
Need a plan,
     no hasty
     short cuts




The plans of the diligent lead surely to
plenty, but everyone who is hasty, surely
to poverty. Proverbs. 21:5
Look after
your assets



              Be diligent to know the state of your
              flocks, and attend to your herds. Proverbs 27:23

     Where no oxen are, the trough is clean; but much
     increase comes by the strength of an ox. Proverbs 14:4
Do not overwork
Do not     to be rich; because
overwork   of your own
           understanding,
to         cease!

get        Will you set your
           eyes on that which
rich       is not? For riches
           certainly make
           themselves wings;
           they fly away like
           an eagle toward
           heaven. Proverbs 23:4-5
Don’t quit
when the
going gets
tough



             If you faint in the day of adversity, your
             strength is small. Proverbs 24:10
Get counsel
 then set Without counsel, plans go awry*, but in
          the multitude of counselors they are
 plans    established.                 Proverbs 15:22




Listen to counsel and receive
instruction, that you may be wise
in your latter days. Proverbs 19:20
                     Plans are established by counsel.
                     Proverbs 20:18

                      *awry = Away from the appropriate, planned, or expected course
Get
knowledge,
don’t be
hasty


             It is not good a soul to be without
             knowledge, and he sins who
             hastens with his feet. Proverbs 19:2
Take care




      A prudent man forsees evil and hides himself; the
      simple pass on and are punished. Proverbs 22:3 & 27:12

you

             A good name is to be chosen
             rather than great riches, loving
             favor rather than silver and gold.
             Proverbs 22.1
Give 10%
to God



           Honor the Lord with your
           possessions, and with the
           firstfruits of all your increase so
           your barns will be filled with
           plenty, and your vats will overflow
           with new wine. Proverbs 3:9-10

Wisdom      understanding for her proceeds
            are better than the profits of
more than   silver,and her gain than fine gold.
             She is more precious than rubies,
Wealth      and all the things you may desire
            cannot compare with her.

            pleasantness, and all her paths are
            peace.
