He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm. Misfortune pursues the sinner, but prosperity is the reward of the righteous.A good man leaves an inheritance for his children’s children, but a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous. Proverbs 13:20-22
Lots of good stuff in today’s verses. For example, those who seek the counsel of the wise, and make good friendships will grow wise as well, and benefit from those relationships. Hang out with the wrong crowd, or take advice from a fool, you’ll pay for it. (Sounds like good advice in the realm of personal finance). Be ethical in your dealings with money, and ‘prosperity is the reward of the righteous’.
