I don't believe in simply accumulating money, but I have the luxury to say that, because I have enough for all my needs.

Unless you are completely retired, earning money is the best form of wealth preservation.

What I usually do is hoard money - I accumulate as much as possible in the fear of not having enough to pay tax.

Surplus wealth is a sacred trust which its possessor is bound to administer in his lifetime for the good of the community.

To be able to give away riches is mandatory if you wish to possess them. This is the only way that you will be truly rich.

I will give away at least half my wealth during my lifetime and after my death. In the meantime, I'll continue to grow my wealth as much as possible so that the amount I bequeath to charities and worthy causes can be as substantial as possible.

The only wealth which you will keep forever is the wealth you have given away.

I think the discussion of, you know, can we put a cap on wealth creation and distribution - it's something that should be at the heart of every Christian that is a capitalist. Is, what is the purpose I'm doing with this wealth?

If financial assets no longer work for you at a rate far and above the rate of true wealth creation, then you must work longer for your money.

You cannot have a society where you spend more than you earn. I mean, it's just fundamentally not viable in the long run.
