Proverbs and Investing – Discussion
-
What in the notes did you find revealing, challenging or interesting?
-
interesting because giving follows love…when we have a love for others it will show by our action of giving. some people are blessed with a spirit of giving and will go out of their way to meet a need without anyone asking.
-
That the love and the heart posture behind the gift is more important than the gift itself. God shows us yet again how He is after changing our hearts.
-
Basically, that if my HEART is not in honoring God with my gifts; then the effort is useless. I must first LOVE as he has done before my birth to build a stronger relationship.
-
The idea that in God’s economy, gifts given with the proper attitude benefit the giver more than the receiver; that Jesus said, “‘It is more blessed to give than to receive’”.

Compound investing and early investing are always surprising to see no matter how many times you see the scenarios.

Compound interest and the Rule of 72 are wonderful tools. It is essential to start utilizing these tools earlier than later, but nevertheless just starting is crucial.
