Ecclesiastes 5:11

¹¹When good things increase, those who consume them increase. So what is the advantage to their owners except to look on?

I don’t think there is a man who has ever lived that had so much wealth that he was able to satisfy everyone.  In life there is equilibrium, and as soon as one side becomes too weighted, another force will move into get their share.  If you find a way to make $1000 for every $100 you invest, believe me, you will find competitors in, ohhh, about five seconds.  Rides on the gravy train tend to be very short.  We must not put our trust in them.
