The behavior of men is ordered according to which path we choose, explains Psalm 1, the persons who are progressive and uplifting to blessings; the persons who are chaotic and unjust to punishment.
The Bible warns us that we should not live dominated by the love of money, greed and ambition are not good advisers for the life of man; the love for money, when it rules our mind, sooner or later leads us down to the path of error:
"Worrying about money will make you lose weight and lose sleep. Worrying about business will keep you from sleeping just as surely as a serious illness does.
Rich people work hard to make a lot of money; then they can sit back and live in luxury. Poor people work hard and have nothing to show for it, and when they rest, they are still poor.
No one who loves money can be judged innocent; his efforts to get rich have led him into sin. Many people have been ruined because of money, brought face-to-face with disaster. Money is a trap for those who are fascinated by it, a trap that every fool falls into.", Sirach 31:1-7

But the Bible also tells us about a well-established wealth, such as that of King David and his son King Solomon, which is the product of good intelligence and well-understood wisdom: "A person who gets rich without sinfully chasing after money is fortunate. Do you know anyone like that? If so, we will congratulate him for performing a miracle that no one else has ever been able to do. If anyone has ever passed this test, he can well be proud. Has anyone ever known that he could get away with cheating someone, and not taken advantage of it? If so, he deserves his wealth, and everyone will praise him for his generosity.", Sirach 31:8-11.
When money and wisdom in the life of man go hand in hand they are a beatitude, and a blessing from God. Because the man of integrity, does not oppress and shares his wealth with generosity with others.
