Summary

This quote emphasizes that true wealth does not lie in acquiring material possessions or treasures, but rather in how these possessions are utilized. It suggests that the value of wealth lies in the actions taken with it, such as sharing, investing, or improving the lives of oneself and others. In other words, one's wealth is determined by the positive impact made through the wise and purposeful use of one's resources, rather than the mere accumulation of material wealth itself.
