Money, Roger Alcon

We have what we need. To me, the fresh air and the land, and water. It's better than money.

Advice, Book of Proverbs

Of what use is money in the hands of fools when they have no heart to acquire wisdom?

+ Book of Proverbs 17, 16

[17:16] The exhortation to acquire or purchase wisdom is common in Proverbs. Fools misunderstand the metaphor, assuming they can buy it with money. Their very misunderstanding shows they have no “heart” = mind, understanding. Money in the hand is no good without such a “heart” to store it in.

Kill not the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Money, Olivas

We are one of the poorest counties in the nation, yes, but we are money-poor, we are not asset-poor. We've got land, we've got agriculture, we've got our heritage and we've got our culture.

Gambling, Wall Street

Gambling begins where we risk what we can't afford to gain something we haven't earned.

- Wall Street

Don't forget the difference between investing and gambling.
