Introduction The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
Prov. 22:7
One man pretends to be rich, yet has nothing....
Prov 13:7
1)  EMBRACE THE VALUE OF SELF-CONTROL. Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self-control.
Prov 25:28 
2)  EMBRACE THE VALUE OF SACRIFICE. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before himendured the cross
Heb. 12:2
If you pay $217.93 per month on $14,517 at 18%, it will take 40 years to pay off debt (totaling $104,606.40). If you invest $14,517 at 12% for 40 years = $1,350,820.94. If you invest $14,517 and add $217.93 per month at 12% over 40 years = 3,597,615.75  3)  EMBRACE THE VALUE OF PLANNING. Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?
Luke 14:28
The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.
Prov 21:5
