The more you have, the more people come to help you spend it.
It's fair to say that at a shopping mall, there are sales, discounts and bargains being pushed upon consumers from every possible angle. Discount coupons are almost guaranteed to arrive in your mail every week. Credit card companies will even send you an application for services with your monthly statements. Television, radio, magazines, newspapers and websites will likely never cease to try to entice you into purchasing something. More often than not, you purchase things that aren't even necessary because: 1. you have the money to make the purchase; 2. you have a credit card that you're ready to use unwisely; or 3. you actually believe that the product is going to make you happier, smarter, better looking, more attractive, maybe even more spiritual, and so on, and so on. The hard reality for all of us is that people will "help" you and entice you to spend your money in every possible way. Be shrewd with your money and start by first being obedient to the Word. Remember, there's a big difference between needing something and wanting for something.
