I came across this interesting article and thought of sharing with you all.

This year, I invite you to tap into the financial wisdom of our elders along with me, and become financially wiser.

Hard work:      All hard work brings profit; but mere talk leads only to poverty.
Laziness:        A sleeping lobster is carried away by the water current.
Earnings:        Never depend on a single source of income.
Spending:       If you buy things you don't need, you'll soon sell things you need.
Savings:         Don't save what is left after spending;spend what is left after saving
Borrowings:    The borrower becomes the lender's slave.
Accounting:    It's no use carrying an umbrella, if your shoes are leaking.
Auditing:        Beware of little expenses; a small leak can sink a large ship. 
Risk Taking:    Never test the depth of the river with both feet.
Investment:   Don't put all your eggs in one basket.  

I'm certain that those who have already been practicing these principles remain financially healthy.

I'm equally confident that those who resolve to start practicing these principles will quickly regain their financial health.  
Let us become wiser and lead a happy, healthy, prosperous and peaceful life.
