There is nothing wrong with men possessing riches. The wrong comes when riches possess men.

Billy Graham
About This Quote

The biggest problem with wealth is when it becomes an idol in one’s life and they lose sight of what is really important. When the love of money becomes greater than the love of God, then you have a problem. It is possible for a person to fall so in love with money that they become blind to all other things. They can’t see anything but money and what it can buy. This leads to greed and that leads to theft.
