  1. 1) You have to give a little in order to gain anything.
    2) The world is A.D.D. just like the hare and the tortoise always wins! If you invest and let the money grow overtime you will have a lot.

  2. #1 If you want to get something you must give something. It's good to have a giving spirit, otherwise you would most likely grip your money.
    #2 Patience is a virtue! Good things always come to those who wait, and those who plan ahead :)

  3. 1. You can't receive if you don't give, if your hands are closed tight, no money will get out, but no money can get in either.
    2. get rich quick schemes are a fraud, growing money takes time and hard work.

  5. 1. Giving keeps our focus on what's really important, and will hopefully prevent greed from becoming an issue when we're dealing with money. Also, God has commanded that we help those around us and we are honoring Him when we give.
    2. Instead of investing to get rich quickly, it's much wiser to choose investment options that are solid, to diversify your money, and to be patient waiting for your return.

  6. 1) To succeed, whenever you get something you need to give something.

    2) Taking the fastest option isn't always the best. You are better off waiting and being patient.

  8. 1) Giving is necessary because it helps you keep money in its place in your life. This keeps your head on and gives you the freedom to put your money in different places. This also brings on the blessing of our Lord!

    2) The Tortoise and the Hare story illustrates that "slow and steady wins the race."
    Take your time and act wisely or you might run out of breath and collapse!

    1. You have to spend some money in order to make money.
    2. Slow and stead wins the race this is not the thing that most people think about. But this is true in saving money.
    Both of these together mean that it is better to save money by investing slowly so that you will win in the end
