As water collected in a tank gets pure by filtration, so accumulated wealth is preserved by being employed in charity.

Accumulated wealth is saved by spending just as incoming fresh water is saved by letting out stagnant water.

He who has wealth has friends and relations; he alone survives and is respected as a man.

Sinfully acquired wealth may remain for ten years; in the eleventh year it disappears with even the original stock.

He who has wealth has friends.

Save your wealth against future calamity. Do not say, "what fear has a rich man of calamity?" Wealth sometimes vanishes away and large accumulations perish.
