11 Dishonest money dwindles away,
but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow.
20 Walk with the wise and become wise,
for a companion of fools suffers harm.
All of these verses are good. They all hold some universal truth. Great stuff to read and remind myself of.
I copy/pasted the first verse, just because it's so opposite of our society. Everyone is looking for instant gratification. How can I get 10 million insta followers? Not that its dishonest, but you know what I mean. There is real value in saving and building and being generous.
The second verse is one that I try to convince Max of. He doesn't subscribe yet. He hangs out with some dudes that are squarely in the second line. But, that is a concept that you learn and accept over time. I can remember being there too. Ben, on the other hand, has no time for the fools....at all!

10 Where there is strife, there is pride,
ReplyDeletebut wisdom is found in those who take advice.
there are a lot of great ones in here simple yet true. I like this one, since I can be one that thinks they already know or understand something. Don't be to cool to learn from someone with more experience!
Hang in there for Max he will come around. My brother use to have some pretty bad stuff around him, at some point that became old for him but he had to learn it we couldn't tell him.
