A miser grows rich by seeming poor; an extravagant man grows poor by seeming rich.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A rich man is nothing but a poor man with money.
Poor is the man who does not know his own intrinsic worth and tends to measure everything by relative value. A man of financial wealth who values himself by his financial net worth is poorer than a poor man who values himself by his intrinsic self worth.
By desiring little, a poor man makes himself rich.
Growing richer every day, for as rich and poor are relative terms, when the rich are growing poor, it is pretty much the same as if the poor were growing rich. Nobody is poor when the distinction between rich and poor is destroyed.
It is in spending oneself that one becomes rich.
A rich man can afford to be generous to many.
The poor man who enters into a partnership with one who is rich makes a risky venture.
Riches don't make a man rich, they only make him busier.
A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone.
The man who has no money is poor, but one who has nothing but money is poorer. He only is rich who can enjoy without owning; he is poor who though he has millions is covetous.
